The livestream just wrapped up… and honestly, the Switch2’s launch lineup feels underwhelming. Mostly recycled titles with wheelchair basketball and a voice chat party game thrown in as token additions.

Some bright spots though: Hyrule Warriors 2 is confirmed, Hades 2 makes the cut, and Elden Ring will be playable. Plus, the long-awaited Silksong finally arrives this year!
Mark your calendars – Switch2 launches June 5th. But here’s the thing… the current Switch still feels perfectly capable for a few more years.
Speaking of surprises, that *Duskbloods* game caught my attention – looks intriguing!

I’m excited about Elden Ring being playable, but the rest of the launch lineup does sound a bit disappointing. I hope there are more hidden gems that didn’t get much attention in the stream.
I’m excited about Elden Ring being playable, but the rest of the launch lineup does sound a bit disappointing. Still, Hades 2 and Silksong are big draws – can’t wait to see what they bring to the table.
I’m really excited about Elden Ring being playable on the new console, but the lack of truly fresh titles in the launch lineup is a bummer. Silksong dropping this year is the cherry on top though – can’t wait!
