RUMORED: Assassin's Creed Shadows

RUMORED: Halo: The Master Chief Collection

"Expect a lot of Microsoft games on Switch 2 and PS5 moving forward, but Flight Simulator and Halo: Master Chief Collection are two games I have heard about that should be making their way over in 2025."

Source: NateTheHate

RUMORED: Microsoft Flight Simulator

RUMORED: Hi-Fi Rush

"Microsoft is going to be a very big supporter of the Switch 2 when it does come out, they will be porting and patching the current Switch lineup. So games like Grounded, Pentiment, the Ori games will eventually find their way to Switch 2, be patched with 4K support and I wouldn't be surprised if you see Sea of Thieves, maybe Hi-Fi Rush, also find their way over."

RUMORED: Ori and the Blind Forest

RUMORED: Ori and the Will of the Wisps

RUMORED: Sea of Thieves

RUMORED: Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle and Sparks of Hope

"[We] had already released a Mario Rabbids game [on Switch], so by doing another we had two similar experiences on one machine. On Nintendo, games like this never die. There are 25 Mario games on Switch. Nintendo [has advised] that it's better to do one iteration on each machine. We were a bit too early, we should have waited for [the next console]. Because you could play a great game. And we think it will last for 10 years, because we will update it for the new machine that will come in the future."

-- Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot

"There was also some consideration of doing a Mario + Rabbids collection so it would have one and two in a single package."

RUMORED: 3D Mario Game

"We have heard stuff like a new 3D Mario [game]."

RUMORED: Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater

"Some other third-party games I have heard, include Metal Gear Solid Delta, which is coming out in 2025. Right now it lacks a release date for all platforms and I'm hopeful that maybe it is a day-and-date release when it does come to Switch 2."

RUMORED: Rainbow Six Siege

"I've been told that Ubisoft is doing more than half-a-dozen games for the Switch 2, and a lot of them are going to be late ports. These are from a range of franchises, like The Division, Rainbow Six Siege."
