Although we still don’t know when Nintendo Switch 2 will be debuting, there has been a surge of excitement among gamers. In the last couple of weeks, we’ve seen tons of rumors swirling around online about how much the console might cost and its potential release date.

Switch 2 may arrive in the first quarter next year.

It’s a known fact among gamers that Nintendo has always launched its ground-breaking consoles with an exciting and power-packed game lineup. However, if Nintendo Switch 2 truly wants to leave its mark on gamers, it must bring Hidetaka Miyazaki’s best creation ever,Elden Ring, as a day-one title.

Elden Ringon Nintendo Switch 2 is a No-Brainer

Despite the critical acclaim and outpouring of fan support for the Soulslike series over the years, it’s mind-boggling that the only game to ever drop on a Nintendo Switch console wasDark Souls Remastered. Since then, FromSoftware has released its very own magnum ops withElden Ring.

WithElden Ring, FromSoftware took the frameworkit set up with the originalDark Soulstrilogy and gave it an open-world twist. It proved to be a brilliant step forward for the Soulslike genre that takes the series’ familiar combat, lore, and exploration to the next level.

Forget Elden Ring, Black Myth: Wukong is the New Benchmark for the Perfect Soulslike

Due to the fact that theElden Ringwas such an upgrade, it had to leave the Nintendo Switch behind. However, with the game seeing success on handhelds such as ASUS Rog Ally and Steam Deck, it shouldn’t have an issue running onNintendo’s most powerful console.

FromSoftware hasn’t had the best partnership with Nintendo, but both companies must know about the revenue such a release could bring to the table. Let’s keep our fingers crossed and hope they both can work this out and make it happen.

ABattlefieldtitle on the next-generation Switch console would prove to be huge for the long-running FPS series. Despite getting tons of installments in the last couple of decades, the franchise still hasn’t made its way to a Nintendo system and is limited to Xbox, PlayStation, and PCs.

Even if Respawn is dead set on bringing the legendary franchise to the next Switch console, the chances of its Nintendo port starting with thenext entry in theBattlefieldfranchiseare quite low.Battlefieldtitles are known to be pushing the boundaries of graphics, and Nintendo isn’t a name that’s known for competing in the console spec race.
