Switch 2: Game-Key Cards?

It has recently come to light that almost all physical third-party Nintendo Switch 2 games in Japan are Game-Key Cards, and it appears the same trend is occurring in the West. In the US, Sega's Switch 2 games, including Sonic X Shadow Generations and Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut, are listed as Game-Key Cards. So far, we've identified only four third-party physical Switch 2 games that are not 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 had the chance to go hands-on with two of the most anticipated Switch 2 launch titles, Donkey Kong Bananza and Mario Kart World. Both are available for preorder starting today. Here’s what Brian Altano and Logan Plant had to say about these eagerly awaited games.

**Donkey Kong Bananza:** "I also think Bananza is on track to be one of the most gorgeous Nintendo games I’ve seen. It really does take advantage of Switch 2's hardware – the environments are beautiful and DK’s animations are wonderfully expressive, and 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 games of the Switch 2 generation. The new open world format and Knockout Tour modes are massive new additions to the franchise, the visuals are gorgeous, the gameplay is a blast, and we can’t wait to play more, even if we wish it was a few bucks cheaper."
