During the April 2025 Nintendo Direct, Nintendo announced Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment for Switch 2, coming Winter 2025. It’s a prequel to Tears of the Kingdom and is a follow up to 2020’s Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity.
Nintendo only put out a story teaser trailer, but it shows the dark tone that contrasts with Tears of the Kingdom‘s more bright atmosphere.
The Switch 2 Direct has also announced some new games for the system, such as Mario Kart World Tour, Drag x Drive, and Nintendo Switch Welcome Tour. Some other features include the inclusion of “Nintendo Switch 2 versions” of original Switch games, such as Kirby and the Forgotten Land, both Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, and Pokemon Legends: Z-A. Nintendo also revealed the purpose behind the mysterious C button on the right Joy-Con.
