List of all Nintendo Switch 2 games with a game-key card release

Following the launch of Nintendo Switch 2, we’re putting together a complete list of Nintendo Switch 2 games with a game-key card release.

This is a new approach to physical media, which has seen a mixed reaction. In a way, it’s a hybrid between a true physical release and a download code. Each box comes with a cartridge, but there’s nothing really included. Rather than coming with all content, you’ll need to download the game first. After that you don’t need to connect online, but you need to insert the card each time you play.

On the original Nintendo Switch, we saw plenty of games that were sold at retail with a box that contained a download code. The problem there was that you couldn’t lend it out to a friend or sell it later on. Since game-key cards do come with a cartridge, these issues have been eliminated. However, at the same time, they are not true physical releases in the traditional sense since the cartridges do not contain game data.
