Switch 2: Game-Key Cards?
Recent reports indicate that most physical third-party Nintendo Switch 2 games in Japan are Game-Key Cards, a trend that appears to be extending to the West. In the US, Sega's Switch 2 titles like Sonic X Shadow Generations and Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut are listed as Game-Key Cards. So far, only four third-party physical Switch 2 games have been confirmed to not use Game-Key Cards: Cyberpunk 2077, Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion, Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma, and No Sleep For Kaname Date - From AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES Aiba Edition.
Switch 2 Game Previews
IGN recently provided hands-on previews of two major upcoming Switch 2 titles, Donkey Kong Bananza and Mario Kart World, both available for preorder now. Here's what Brian Altano and Logan Plant had to say about these eagerly anticipated launch games.
Donkey Kong Bananza: "I also think Bananza is on track to be one of the most visually stunning Nintendo games I’ve seen. It truly leverages the Switch 2's hardware – the environments are breathtaking, and DK’s animations are wonderfully expressive. I left feeling like the next generation of first-party Nintendo games had truly arrived."
Mario Kart World: "Mario Kart World feels like the definitive Switch 2 launch game and will certainly be one of the defining titles of the Switch 2 generation. The new open-world format and Knockout Tour modes are significant additions to the franchise, the visuals are stunning, the gameplay is a blast, and we can’t wait to play more, even if we wish it was a bit more affordable."
