Exciting changes are on the horizon for X! The platform is launching an innovative experiment aimed at promoting posts that resonate positively with users. By gathering feedback on various posts, users can express their thoughts through a range of reactions—from "it makes a meaningful point" to "it's funny" or even "it doesn't interest me." This initiative not only seeks to foster a more agreeable environment but also aims to develop an open-source algorithm that reflects the collective sentiment of the community. Could this be the start of a new era for online interactions? Let’s keep an eye on how this unfolds! #SmartBuilding #SocialMedia #Innovation #CommunityEngagement #TechTrends

New F37 typeface launches with “deadpan” posters celebrating Manchester

Type foundry F37 has launched a new typeface inspired by one of Manchester’s last wooden street signs. And they worked with designer Craig Oldham and copywriter Ellen Ling to bring it to life on a series of billboards celebrating the city’s particular brand of pride.
F37 Mancunio is based on the typeface on the sign underneath the railway in St Michael’s Place. F37 founder Rick Banks was drawn to the uneven stroke endings on the ‘C’ and the ‘S’ and designer Rodrigo Fuenzalida worked it into a full typeface with nine weights and “a width axis for flexibility.”
Mancunio is named after the Roman fort that once stood in present-day Castlefield.
“Rick found the reference ages ago and always wanted to turn it into a font,” says F37’s Keelin Wright. “We wanted to take something from the city, and create a font that represents the history of Manchester, but still feels quite modern as well.”
The sign in St Michael’s Place that inspired F37’s Mancunio typeface
Wright explains that although there are a lot grotesque sans serif fonts in the F37 library, the “quirky” letter endings and old-style numerals create “ a more human type of grotesque.”
When it came to launching the typeface, Wright says they wanted to celebrate its connection to Manchester – where F37 is based – in the right way.
“We thought because we’ve taken something physical from the city in terms of the sign, we want to give something physical back,” she explains. “We felt that the billboards would give something typographic to the city, especially around springtime, when Manchester is coming out of the gloom.”
F37’s Mancunio typeface
Banks and Oldham had worked together on several previous projects and bought in Ling to develop the copy-led campaign.
She admits it was a daunting brief in some ways, given some high-profile misfires with localised campaigns in Manchester in recent years.
In 2022, locals ridiculed a Magnum advert which misrepresented one of the city’s more insalubrious squares, while a recent Adidas billboard for Manchester United proclaiming that “Manneh is Red” was equally derided.
Writing on LinkedIn, designer and United fan Andrew Whitehead said he had never once heard the club referred to as Manneh. “It’s not a nickname. It’s not Manchester United. It’s just… off,” he wrote. “This is what fake authenticity looks like.”
“There is all this localised stuff that just bombs,” Ling says. “The pressure is on not to do something that feels tired and out of touch.”
F37’s Mancunio typeface
The team all felt it was important to steer away from many of the well-worn Manchester motifs, which many people feel have been co-opted by commercial interests looking to exploit the city’s creative soul.
“When we were putting the brief together, we found pages and pages of reference for things that we didn’t want,” Wright says. “It was much harder to find things that showed what we actually wanted.”
“A lot of this stuff feels like it was made by outsiders,” Oldham says. “History didn’t start here in the 1980s – there’s a wealth of culture and community spirit.” It was exciting, he says, to avoid cliches around Tony Wilson, the Hacienda stripes, and the city’s bee symbol and try and capture “the stoicism, the acerbic wit and the self-deprecating pride.”
Some of the posters do take familiar topics – like the city’s famously bad weather or Ian Brown’s quote that Manchester has “Everything but a beach” – but Ling says they worked hard to find “a sting in the tail” and “reclaim” these tropes.

Other references are extremely local and deliberately perplexing to outsiders, such as the celebration of Boombox Barry, an iconic local personality.
“He’s part of our everyday experience of being in Manchester,” Ling says. “It was nice to give him his flowers in terms of the joy that he brings, and the enigma that he is.”
One poster even references the Magnum-advert debacle, celebrating “alfresco tinnies on a piss-soaked Piccadilly G.”
For the design, they tried several approaches, including using acid colours, but Oldham says he and Banks realised at one point they were “trying too hard.” The stark white text on black background was the perfect way to showcase the typeface, Oldham says, and stands out in the cityscape.
“This dense spot of black cuts through this ocean of visual clutter,” he explains. “It confronts people, and forces them to read the words.”
Ling adds that the design works perfectly to communicate the deadpan tone of her copy lines.

Manchester’s creative scene has been struggling with the changes wrought by the city’s rapid growth and development in recent years. Designers have even taken to remixing the city’s famous visual language to protest against “incessant gentrification.”
Oldham recognises the tension, although he thinks it’s happening in many cities.
“I think as cities grow and change rapidly, you get to a crossroads,” he says. “What are we going to change into? What are we going to take with us? And what have we got to leave behind?
“I think that’s a universal worry, but Manchester’s very much at that point in its life cycle right now.”
Ling agrees. “It’s not that the city’s independent spirit is being crushed, it’s more like it’s being Last Of Us fungi-d,” she says, in reference to the hit HBO show. “It does feel that everything that you know in your bones makes Manchester great is being commoditised.”

Nintendo Switch 2 gets official gaming accessories from Belkin

Belkin is officially breaking into the gaming accessories space with the launch of a new product portfolio designed specifically for the Nintendo Switch 2.
Belkin is launching the accessories on the launch day for Nintendo’s newest hybrid game console, and all of the products are officially licensed to work with the Switch 2. If I were Nintendo, I would be happy about Belkin’s entry into this market as it validates the opportunity.
The products include a Nintendo Switch 2 Charging Case, which combines protection and power with a built-in 10K battery, keeping your device charged and ready for seamless gaming on the go.
Belkin also has a new Nintendo Travel Case. It blends portability, premium protection, and sleek style for gamers on the go.
The company has also created its TemperedGlass Anti-Reflective Screen Protector for Switch 2. It offers durable, smudge-resistant protection with reduced glare for clearer visibility indoors and out.

And Belkin has a TemperedGlass Blue Light Screen Protector for Switch 2. This delivers durable, smudge-resistant protection while reducing blue light for greater clarity and eye comfort during long gaming sessions.
Logan Olson, director of Future Ventures at Belkin, said in an interview with GamesBeat that his group within Belkin is just a couple of years old.. And the company created the group to take it into new markets for accessories such as gaming.
Belkin has an anti-reflective protector for the Switch 2.
“This segment of Belkin is extremely strategic,” Olson said. “Its purpose is to really expand Belkin into new categories. So new product categories, new completely different business models, as well as new partnerships. Now we’re delivering on the organization’s promise.”
Olson said gaming is a natural fit for Belkin as it is known for its charging devices, protection, quality, sustainability and more — and it wants to bring into gaming, he said..
“Of course, there’s PC gaming, console gaming, mobile gaming. But what really makes sense with mobile console gaming is Nintendo, which with the Switch One created this category. Nintendo has sold more than 150 million Switch devices since 2017, and now it’s finally launching the Switch 2.
“Mobile console gaming is just that natural progression from where we are in the mobile phone space and the demographics of the category,” he said. “Unlike PC gaming and regular console gaming, it’s 50-50 male/female, which is fantastic. It’s unique to this category in gaming. As the Switch grew as a market, it really started to make sense for us.”
Belkin Switch 2 accessories.
Nintendo also spans the generations, hitting everyone from GenAlpha to Boomers. Belkin targeted pain points — like the risk of having a bigger screen scratched, or running out of batteries on the road. The aim was to provide quality, elevated accessories that people would be proud to show off.
“Our intent is to elevate the entire Switch accessory market. We want to set a new standard, a new bar of quality,” Olson said.
The Switch 2 power challenge is a big one because it draws more power than a smartphone and is more like an iPad in that respect. The battery life is about the same, but people want to play their games longer these days, Olson said. That’s where the charger adds value.
Belkin has also built charging into its case for the Switch 2, so people can charge it inside the bag. It comes in three colors, and it has a net for storage and a place to put game cards. The 10,000 milliamp power bank is integrated into the bag, with 20 watts of fast charging. The Switch 2 has a USB-C charging port, so a number of Belkin charging products will work with it.
Belkin’s new charging case lets you charge the Switch 2 while you play.
The charger supports tabletop mode, where you can charge while gaming. Belkin noted that 55% of Switch players play in handheld mode. The price is expected to be which is still subject to changes if tariffs take effect. Special firmware in the charger regulates the charging temperature, which can’t get too hot inside a storage case. You can put an Air Tag in the case to make sure you can find it. In terms of the size, it’s like a clutch to carry around. Meanwhile, the travel bag will be about As for screen protection, Belkin has long had products in Apple Stores to protect phone and tablet screens. Now you can get a Switch 2 screen protector, so people can play at night and not have to worry the light will cause them to stay up longer. Olson said that Belkin reached carbon neutrality this year with its products and is incorporating responsibly sourced materials in its products.
“Screen protection so interesting because the amount of engineering and just science that has to go into it is insane. So all the way from the glass material itself and what you choose there, and then down to the glue and what you choose there, and down to what is on screen here the UX — all of that is meticulously engineered, tested, re engineered, retested,” Olson said.

(Belkin was in gaming back in the early 2000s with the release of a gaming mouse). “Of course, there’s PC gaming, console gaming, mobile gaming. But what really makes sense with mobile console gaming is Nintendo, which with the Switch One created this category. Nintendo has sold more than 150 million Switch devices since 2017, and now it’s finally launching the Switch 2. “Mobile console gaming is just that natural progression from where we are in the mobile phone space and the demographics of the category,” he said. “Unlike PC gaming and regular console gaming, it’s 50-50 male/female, which is fantastic. It’s unique to this category in gaming. As the Switch grew as a market, it really started to make sense for us.” Belkin Switch 2 accessories. Nintendo also spans the generations, hitting everyone from GenAlpha to Boomers. Belkin targeted pain points — like the risk of having a bigger screen scratched, or running out of batteries on the road. The aim was to provide quality, elevated accessories that people would be proud to show off. “Our intent is to elevate the entire Switch accessory market. We want to set a new standard, a new bar of quality,” Olson said. The Switch 2 power challenge is a big one because it draws more power than a smartphone and is more like an iPad in that respect. The battery life is about the same, but people want to play their games longer these days, Olson said. That’s where the charger adds value. Belkin has also built charging into its case for the Switch 2, so people can charge it inside the bag. It comes in three colors, and it has a net for storage and a place to put game cards. The 10,000 milliamp power bank is integrated into the bag, with 20 watts of fast charging. The Switch 2 has a USB-C charging port, so a number of Belkin charging products will work with it. Belkin’s new charging case lets you charge the Switch 2 while you play. The charger supports tabletop mode, where you can charge while gaming. Belkin noted that 55% of Switch players play in handheld mode. The price is expected to be $70, which is still subject to changes if tariffs take effect. Special firmware in the charger regulates the charging temperature, which can’t get too hot inside a storage case. You can put an Air Tag in the case to make sure you can find it. In terms of the size, it’s like a clutch to carry around. Meanwhile, the travel bag will be about $30. As for screen protection, Belkin has long had products in Apple Stores to protect phone and tablet screens. Now you can get a Switch 2 screen protector ($30 which come in packs of two or four. It makes the screen more scratch resistant and better for the environment as it is made from recycled glass. It’s also anti-reflective, which allows you to play games on the Switch 2 in the outdoors. That makes the device more mobile in direct sunlight.Belkin is also releasing a screen protector that can filter out Blue Light ($25), so people can play at night and not have to worry the light will cause them to stay up longer. Olson said that Belkin reached carbon neutrality this year with its products and is incorporating responsibly sourced materials in its products. “Screen protection so interesting because the amount of engineering and just science that has to go into it is insane. So all the way from the glass material itself and what you choose there, and then down to the glue and what you choose there, and down to what is on screen here the UX — all of that is meticulously engineered, tested, re engineered, retested,” Olson said.

Everything We Saw During Sony's Big State Of Play

Today, Sony held its latest State of Play and while it didn’t include some of the bigger games that people were likely hoping for, like a new God of War spin-off, it did include some cool surprises, including what might be the best-looking fighting game I’ve seen in years and a remake of a beloved Final Fantasy title.

Nintendo Switch 2 games list – everything you can play right now

Nintendo Switch 2 games list – everything you can play right now

Michael Beckwith

Published June 5, 2025 9:35am

Updated June 5, 2025 9:43am

Mario Kart World – the Switch 2’s first must-haveThe Nintendo Switch 2 is finally out now and there are over a dozen games available, but which are the most exciting and which can be safely ignored?
While the Nintendo Switch 2 is backwards compatible, allowing you to continue playing through your backlog of Switch 1 games, chances are you’re more interested in checking out what’s new for the console.
As it stands, the Switch 2’s launch line-up is solid. There may only be a small handful of first party Nintendo games, but Mario Kart World alone justifies a day one purchase and, if you don’t have a PlayStation or Xbox, there are lots of third party ports of excellent games you’ve missed out on.
So, ahead of the Switch 2’s launch on Thursday, June 5, here is a quick rundown of every launch game available for the console, all of which can be pre-ordered now or purchased on launch day.
Every launch game for Nintendo Switch 2
Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour

Will you be paying for this?Expert, exclusive gaming analysis

Sign up to the GameCentral newsletter for a unique take on the week in gaming, alongside the latest reviews and more. Delivered to your inbox every Saturday morning.

Essentially a glorified instruction manual, this interactive museum teaches you all the features of the Switch 2 through a series of mini-games. Shockingly, this isn’t a free add-on and costs £7.99.
Mario Kart World
The Switch 2’s big first party exclusive and the first truly new Mario Kart game since 2014. It’ll be hard to top Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, but Mario Kart World aims to do just that by introducing a massive open world to drive around. Here’s our review in progress so far.
The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition
This upgraded version of The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild is a great demonstration of the Switch 2’s more powerful hardware by offering an improved frame rate and HDR support. If you own the original on Switch you can pay a fee of £7.99 for the upgrade or get it free if you’re a Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack subscriber.
The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition

Both Zelda games will also be compatible with a new Zelda Notes mobile appLike Breath Of The Wild, the Switch 2 version of The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom only offers visual and performance improvements, although there is the new Zelda Notes mobile app to keep track of and get hints on side quests. As with Breath Of The Wild you can either pay for the upgrade or get it free with Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack.
Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition
Cyberpunk 2077 is one of the most technically impressive Switch 2 games, with a performance comparable to the PlayStation 4 Pro. It also comes with the Phantom Liberty DLC and mouse support.
Split Fiction
Arguably the best co-op game of the current generation, Split Fiction is a more than worthy follow-up to It Takes Two. Thanks to the Switch 2’s GameShare feature, you and a friend can play together with only one copy.
Hogwarts Legacy
Although Hogwarts Legacy is already available for Switch 1, the new console will be getting an upgraded version that works similarly to the Zelda games. Not only are the graphics improved but you can even use the mouse controls for casting spells.
Street Fighter 6
Street Fighter 6 is still going strong among fighting game fans and now Nintendo owners can join in the fun thanks to online cross-play. A standard version is available for £34.99, but you can spend an extra £15 for a version that bundles together all of the DLC characters.
Hitman World Of Assassination – Signature Edition
There is already a cloud version of Hitman 3 for Switch 1, but this will be the optimal Hitman experience for Nintendo owners going forward. This compiles all the content from IO Interactive’s modern Hitman trilogy alongside a seperate roguelike mode.
Sonic X Shadow Generations
One of Sonic’s better 3D outings gets an equally good remaster, coupled with an even better adventure centred around Shadow the Hedgehog, in Sonic X Shadow Generations. Unfortunately, Sega isn’t offering any sort of upgrade path for people who bought the Switch 1 version.
Yakuza 0 Director’s Cut
The Yakuza games have started to find a new home with Nintendo thanks to the Switch 1 port of Yakuza Kiwami and now there’s this updated remaster of Yakuza 0, which adds new cut scenes and an online multiplayer mode. It’s a timed exclusive so it’ll come to other platforms eventually.
Kunitsu-Gami: Path Of The Goddess
It’s not for everyone, but Kunitsu-Gami: Path Of The Goddess’ blend of action and real-time strategy gameplay is wonderfully weird and fascinating. It being on Switch 2 means it can make use of the console’s mouse controls and it comes with new content that’ll also be added to the PlayStation, Xbox, and PC versions.
Deltarune
The episodic successor to Undertale, it’s been four years since Deltarune’s second chapter launched. For the Switch 2’s launch, not only are the game’s first two chapters being ported to the console, but chapters three and four are dropping at the same time as well, for all formats.
Survival Kids
We’re still surprised Konami opted to reboot this long-forgotten franchise, but as fans of the original Game Boy Color game we’re glad it did. Simply dubbed Survival Kids, it’s less a survival game and more a co-op puzzle adventure where up to four players must explore a series of islands.
Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S
Sega’s second crossover puzzle game featuring Puyo Puyo and Tetris will find new life on Switch 2. So far only confirmed for Nintendo’s new console, Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S offers a unique doubles mode for two teams of two to play against one another.
Fast Fusion
German studio Shin’en Multimedia continues to fill the F-Zero shaped gap in peoples’ hearts with the newest entry in its Fast series of racing games. Aside from online multiplayer and GameShare compatibility, Shin’en promises you can create hundreds of new racing machines by fusing vehicles together.
Bravely Default Flying Fairy HD Remaster
The original Bravely Default gets a much deserved second lease of life with a full Switch 2 remaster. Aside from HD graphics and quality of life updates, the remaster adds two new mini-games and reworks the original’s online features.
Sid Meier’s Civilization 7 – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition
With the Switch 2’s mouse controls, strategy games like Civilization 7 will hopefully become more commonplace on Nintendo’s platform. If you already own the game on Switch 1, you can upgrade to the Switch 2 version for £8.99.
Nobunaga’s Ambition: Awakening Complete Edition
Another upgraded port of a strategy game, this complete edition also coincides with the 40th anniversary of the Nobunaga’s Ambition series. Aside from mouse control support and all of the original game’s DLC, this includes six new story scenarios.
Rune Factory: Guardians Of Azuma Nintendo Switch 2 Edition
A new spin-off for the Rune Factory series of role-playing/social sim games, Guardians Of Azuma has you battling monsters one minute and cultivating your own farm the next. It will launch for Switch 1 as well, which you can later upgrade to Switch 2 for a £10 fee.
Suikoden 1&2 HD Remaster: Gate Rune And Dunan Unification Wars
This compilation of two Suikoden remasters from Konami brings the role playing series to Switch 2 just a few months after its original multiplatform launch. Sadly, there’s no option for Switch 1 owners to upgrade to the new version.
Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time Nintendo Switch 2 Edition
Level-5’s own role playing life sim hybrid only just arrived on Switch 1 and other consoles, but it too is seeing a Switch 2 version at launch. There’s no exact UK price for upgrading from the Switch 1 version, but it’s onlyin the US, so expect something equally cheap over here.
Arcade Archives 2: Ridge Racer
For the first time ever, the original arcade version of Ridge Racer from 1993 will be playable on consoles. Although it was initially announced for Switch 2, it is launching for PlayStation and Xbox as well.
Fortnite
What else is there to say about Fortnite? You know what it’s about. It’ll be free to play as usual and make the most of the Switch 2’s hardware to look and run better than its Switch 1 counterpart.

Fortnite fans on Switch will want to think about upgradingEmail gamecentral@metro.co.uk, leave a comment below, follow us on Twitter.

So, ahead of the Switch 2’s launch on Thursday, June 5, here is a quick rundown of every launch game available for the console, all of which can be pre-ordered now or purchased on launch day. Every launch game for Nintendo Switch 2 Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour Will you be paying for this? (Nintendo) Expert, exclusive gaming analysis Sign up to the GameCentral newsletter for a unique take on the week in gaming, alongside the latest reviews and more. Delivered to your inbox every Saturday morning. Essentially a glorified instruction manual, this interactive museum teaches you all the features of the Switch 2 through a series of mini-games. Shockingly, this isn’t a free add-on and costs £7.99. Mario Kart World The Switch 2’s big first party exclusive and the first truly new Mario Kart game since 2014 (not counting the mobile game). It’ll be hard to top Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, but Mario Kart World aims to do just that by introducing a massive open world to drive around. Here’s our review in progress so far. The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition This upgraded version of The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild is a great demonstration of the Switch 2’s more powerful hardware by offering an improved frame rate and HDR support. If you own the original on Switch you can pay a fee of £7.99 for the upgrade or get it free if you’re a Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack subscriber. The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition Both Zelda games will also be compatible with a new Zelda Notes mobile app (Nintendo) Like Breath Of The Wild, the Switch 2 version of The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom only offers visual and performance improvements, although there is the new Zelda Notes mobile app to keep track of and get hints on side quests. As with Breath Of The Wild you can either pay for the upgrade or get it free with Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack. Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition Cyberpunk 2077 is one of the most technically impressive Switch 2 games, with a performance comparable to the PlayStation 4 Pro. It also comes with the Phantom Liberty DLC and mouse support. Split Fiction Arguably the best co-op game of the current generation, Split Fiction is a more than worthy follow-up to It Takes Two. Thanks to the Switch 2’s GameShare feature, you and a friend can play together with only one copy. Hogwarts Legacy Although Hogwarts Legacy is already available for Switch 1, the new console will be getting an upgraded version that works similarly to the Zelda games. Not only are the graphics improved but you can even use the mouse controls for casting spells. Street Fighter 6 Street Fighter 6 is still going strong among fighting game fans and now Nintendo owners can join in the fun thanks to online cross-play. A standard version is available for £34.99, but you can spend an extra £15 for a version that bundles together all of the DLC characters. Hitman World Of Assassination – Signature Edition There is already a cloud version of Hitman 3 for Switch 1, but this will be the optimal Hitman experience for Nintendo owners going forward. This compiles all the content from IO Interactive’s modern Hitman trilogy alongside a seperate roguelike mode. Sonic X Shadow Generations One of Sonic’s better 3D outings gets an equally good remaster, coupled with an even better adventure centred around Shadow the Hedgehog, in Sonic X Shadow Generations. Unfortunately, Sega isn’t offering any sort of upgrade path for people who bought the Switch 1 version. Yakuza 0 Director’s Cut The Yakuza games have started to find a new home with Nintendo thanks to the Switch 1 port of Yakuza Kiwami and now there’s this updated remaster of Yakuza 0, which adds new cut scenes and an online multiplayer mode. It’s a timed exclusive so it’ll come to other platforms eventually. Kunitsu-Gami: Path Of The Goddess It’s not for everyone, but Kunitsu-Gami: Path Of The Goddess’ blend of action and real-time strategy gameplay is wonderfully weird and fascinating. It being on Switch 2 means it can make use of the console’s mouse controls and it comes with new content that’ll also be added to the PlayStation, Xbox, and PC versions. Deltarune The episodic successor to Undertale, it’s been four years since Deltarune’s second chapter launched. For the Switch 2’s launch, not only are the game’s first two chapters being ported to the console (as well as PlayStation 5), but chapters three and four are dropping at the same time as well, for all formats. Survival Kids We’re still surprised Konami opted to reboot this long-forgotten franchise, but as fans of the original Game Boy Color game we’re glad it did. Simply dubbed Survival Kids, it’s less a survival game and more a co-op puzzle adventure where up to four players must explore a series of islands. Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S Sega’s second crossover puzzle game featuring Puyo Puyo and Tetris will find new life on Switch 2. So far only confirmed for Nintendo’s new console, Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S offers a unique doubles mode for two teams of two to play against one another. Fast Fusion German studio Shin’en Multimedia continues to fill the F-Zero shaped gap in peoples’ hearts with the newest entry in its Fast series of racing games. Aside from online multiplayer and GameShare compatibility, Shin’en promises you can create hundreds of new racing machines by fusing vehicles together. Bravely Default Flying Fairy HD Remaster The original Bravely Default gets a much deserved second lease of life with a full Switch 2 remaster. Aside from HD graphics and quality of life updates, the remaster adds two new mini-games and reworks the original’s online features. Sid Meier’s Civilization 7 – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition With the Switch 2’s mouse controls, strategy games like Civilization 7 will hopefully become more commonplace on Nintendo’s platform. If you already own the game on Switch 1, you can upgrade to the Switch 2 version for £8.99. Nobunaga’s Ambition: Awakening Complete Edition Another upgraded port of a strategy game, this complete edition also coincides with the 40th anniversary of the Nobunaga’s Ambition series. Aside from mouse control support and all of the original game’s DLC, this includes six new story scenarios. Rune Factory: Guardians Of Azuma Nintendo Switch 2 Edition A new spin-off for the Rune Factory series of role-playing/social sim games, Guardians Of Azuma has you battling monsters one minute and cultivating your own farm the next. It will launch for Switch 1 as well, which you can later upgrade to Switch 2 for a £10 fee. Suikoden 1&2 HD Remaster: Gate Rune And Dunan Unification Wars This compilation of two Suikoden remasters from Konami brings the role playing series to Switch 2 just a few months after its original multiplatform launch. Sadly, there’s no option for Switch 1 owners to upgrade to the new version. Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time Nintendo Switch 2 Edition Level-5’s own role playing life sim hybrid only just arrived on Switch 1 and other consoles, but it too is seeing a Switch 2 version at launch. There’s no exact UK price for upgrading from the Switch 1 version, but it’s only $2.59 (about £1.91) in the US, so expect something equally cheap over here. Arcade Archives 2: Ridge Racer For the first time ever, the original arcade version of Ridge Racer from 1993 will be playable on consoles. Although it was initially announced for Switch 2, it is launching for PlayStation and Xbox as well. Fortnite What else is there to say about Fortnite? You know what it’s about. It’ll be free to play as usual and make the most of the Switch 2’s hardware to look and run better than its Switch 1 counterpart. Fortnite fans on Switch will want to think about upgrading (Epic Games) Email gamecentral@metro.co.uk, leave a comment below, follow us on Twitter.

Nintendo Switch 2 gets official gaming accessories from Belkin

Belkin is officially breaking into the gaming accessories space with the launch of a new product portfolio designed specifically for the Nintendo Switch 2.
Belkin is launching the accessories on the launch day for Nintendo’s newest hybrid game console, and all of the products are officially licensed to work with the Switch 2. If I were Nintendo, I would be happy about Belkin’s entry into this market as it validates the opportunity.
The products include a Nintendo Switch 2 Charging Case, which combines protection and power with a built-in 10K battery, keeping your device charged and ready for seamless gaming on the go.
Belkin also has a new Nintendo Travel Case. It blends portability, premium protection, and sleek style for gamers on the go.
The company has also created its TemperedGlass Anti-Reflective Screen Protector for Switch 2. It offers durable, smudge-resistant protection with reduced glare for clearer visibility indoors and out.
A gaming power bank from Belkin.
And Belkin has a TemperedGlass Blue Light Screen Protector for Switch 2. This delivers durable, smudge-resistant protection while reducing blue light for greater clarity and eye comfort during long gaming sessions.
Logan Olson, director of Future Ventures at Belkin, said in an interview with GamesBeat that his group within Belkin is just a couple of years old.. And the company created the group to take it into new markets for accessories such as gaming.
Belkin has an anti-reflective protector for the Switch 2.
“This segment of Belkin is extremely strategic,” Olson said. “Its purpose is to really expand Belkin into new categories. So new product categories, new completely different business models, as well as new partnerships. Now we’re delivering on the organization’s promise.”
Olson said gaming is a natural fit for Belkin as it is known for its charging devices, protection, quality, sustainability and more — and it wants to bring into gaming, he said..
“Of course, there’s PC gaming, console gaming, mobile gaming. But what really makes sense with mobile console gaming is Nintendo, which with the Switch One created this category. Nintendo has sold more than 150 million Switch devices since 2017, and now it’s finally launching the Switch 2.
“Mobile console gaming is just that natural progression from where we are in the mobile phone space and the demographics of the category,” he said. “Unlike PC gaming and regular console gaming, it’s 50-50 male/female, which is fantastic. It’s unique to this category in gaming. As the Switch grew as a market, it really started to make sense for us.”
Belkin Switch 2 accessories.
Nintendo also spans the generations, hitting everyone from GenAlpha to Boomers. Belkin targeted pain points — like the risk of having a bigger screen scratched, or running out of batteries on the road. The aim was to provide quality, elevated accessories that people would be proud to show off.
“Our intent is to elevate the entire Switch accessory market. We want to set a new standard, a new bar of quality,” Olson said.
The Switch 2 power challenge is a big one because it draws more power than a smartphone and is more like an iPad in that respect. The battery life is about the same, but people want to play their games longer these days, Olson said. That’s where the charger adds value.
Belkin has also built charging into its case for the Switch 2, so people can charge it inside the bag. It comes in three colors, and it has a net for storage and a place to put game cards. The 10,000 milliamp power bank is integrated into the bag, with 20 watts of fast charging. The Switch 2 has a USB-C charging port, so a number of Belkin charging products will work with it.
Belkin’s new charging case lets you charge the Switch 2 while you play.
The charger supports tabletop mode, where you can charge while gaming. Belkin noted that 55% of Switch players play in handheld mode. The price is expected to be which is still subject to changes if tariffs take effect. Special firmware in the charger regulates the charging temperature, which can’t get too hot inside a storage case. You can put an Air Tag in the case to make sure you can find it. In terms of the size, it’s like a clutch to carry around. Meanwhile, the travel bag will be about As for screen protection, Belkin has long had products in Apple Stores to protect phone and tablet screens. Now you can get a Switch 2 screen protector, so people can play at night and not have to worry the light will cause them to stay up longer. Olson said that Belkin reached carbon neutrality this year with its products and is incorporating responsibly sourced materials in its products.
“Screen protection so interesting because the amount of engineering and just science that has to go into it is insane. So all the way from the glass material itself and what you choose there, and then down to the glue and what you choose there, and down to what is on screen here the UX — all of that is meticulously engineered, tested, re engineered, retested,” Olson said.
