A few months ago, just before The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom released, we had no idea what the rest of 2023 held for the Switch, beyond Pikmin 4 that is. It wasn’t until after the June Direct that things really started to come into focus.
You might recall we pulled together a list of games that were due to arrive in the first half of 2023 and we thought it would be fun to see what the second half now holds. Like before the list is broken up into groups, the first are the games published by Nintendo, the second are the major 3rd parties and finally the games made by the independents.
