New Star Fox/This month?

When is the next major Switch 2 game announcement going to be? Well, apparently very soon. Rumors and relatively reliable leakers have been divulging Nintendo’s 2026 release plans for a few weeks now, but it looks like what might very possibly be the most reliable of them all has just doubled down saying the first of these big announcements will happen this month.

In case you somehow missed it, there has been a massive leak over at Nintendo. Somebody is stealing all of the Mushroom Kingdom’s biggest secrets and leaking them all over the internet. As exciting as some of this leaked information is, I almost hope it’s all fake and Nintendo completely surprises everyone over the next few months.

Leaker claims Nintendo is readying a Super Metroid remake for Switch 2

Super Metroid/For Switch 2

Nintendo has a serious leak problem right now, as we have already discussed. It seems as though just about all of its major 2026 releases have already surfaced online, leaving very little to the imagination when it comes to the upcoming summer and holiday Switch 2 release schedule. There are couple of other titles that have been mentioned among the leaks and, while they don’t come from sources quite as reliable as some of the others, if they do end up coming to fruition we could be in for a new Wario Land game and a potential new classic Metroid remake this year.

New Switch 2 Mario Galaxy bundle announced, but you can score a deal on the game right now

Mario Galaxy 1+2/From $55

Nintendo has been making headlines as of late after what appeared to be its entire 2026 launch schedule leaked online (details here). However, it does look as though one thing didn’t slip through the warp pipes as it has just announced a new limited-time Super Mario Galaxy Switch 2 console bundle offer. Starting next week, you’ll be able to buy a Switch 2 and Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 at just about all major retailers with a $20 discount. That’s not much, but it is something, and if you already own a Switch 2 you can land a deal on Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 right now anyway: Woot has the proper U.S. boxed version down at $58.99 right now and the international version down at $54.99 Prime shipped. The International copy works on U.S. consoles, but you might bump into some issues if there was an DLC for the game in question (updates appear to work just fine).

As we have already reported, there have been some major Nintendo leaks surfacing across the interwebs over the last week or so, much of which coming from folks with solid track records for this sort of thing. While these sorts of early details and rumors were very much expected last year with the launch of the Switch 2, it appears as though much of the Nintendo 2026 launch plans have leaked already.

While the leaks and rumors regarding upcoming Nintendo plans have slowed to some degree compared to last year’s Switch 2 launch cycle, there have been some seriously exciting tidbits floating around as of late. Not the least of which, some fairly high-profile Nintendo Insiders have already claimed we are in for a complete remake of one of the most celebrated Nintendo titles of all-time: The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time. And now it looks as though there’s good reason to believe there will also be a special edition Zelda Ocarina of Time Switch 2 Console.

There have been some notable releases for Switch 2 thus far, but nothing overly remarkable at this point. We have had some notable first-party releases with the new Mario Tennis game and the Super Mario Bros. Wonder expansion, not to mention the surprisingly well-received Pokémon Pokopia. But Nintendo is going to need some heavy hitters to keep the hype rolling this year – will we finally get a new 3D Mario experience? Doesn’t sound like it at this point, but rumor has it a massive Zelda remake is inbound alongside a new Star Fox game and much sooner than later at that.
