- Nintendo has revealed a summer games feature for Switch 2 and Switch.
- Pokémon Pokopia, Tomodachi Life, Kabuto Park, Dave the Diver, FINAL FANTASY X/X-2 HD Remaster, and more are included in the list.

Snackgirls editor note
Kirari: “Summer game lists are fun just to browse. Pokémon, island life, the sea, and fishing are all grouped together, so it already feels like a vacation.”
Nea: “Since Switch 2 versions and existing Switch versions are mixed together, start by checking whether it runs right away on your own device.”
Nintendo UK has published a summer games feature for Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch. The official news post organizes its list around games with beach, sea, island-life, and summer-vacation themes.
One standout name is Pokémon Pokopia. The official article mentions a summer picnic area, a swimming pool, and decoration features with friends, and notes that a new undersea town, Bubbly Basin, will open in August through the first paid DLC pack.
Games that stand out first on the list
Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream highlights island life with Mii characters and a summer mood, while Kabuto Park puts bug catching and training up front. Dave the Diver is introduced through its loop of exploring the sea by day and running a sushi restaurant by night.
Further down the list, names such as Animal Crossing: New Horizons – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition, FINAL FANTASY X/X-2 HD Remaster, ABZÛ, and New Pokémon Snap also appear. It is worth distinguishing between Switch 2 exclusives, Switch 2 Edition titles, and existing Switch downloadable software.
What to check on a Korean account
This official article is based on Nintendo’s UK page. That means actual Korean eShop pricing, discount status, and DLC availability should be checked again with a Korean account. For games with Switch 2 Edition upgrades or DLC, the practical purchase conditions may also change depending on whether you already own the base game.
In short, this list is better read not as a “new announcement,” but as a shortlist of Switch 2 and Switch games to pick up for summer.
Sources and checked date: Checked on July 18, 2026

Korean pricing and availability still need to be checked on the Korean eShop.
