Kill It With Fire 2 Launches on Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 with Online Co-Op and PvP Modes

The anticipated sequel to the cult favorite extermination game, Kill It With Fire, is scuttling onto Nintendo Switch and the upcoming Switch 2, promising fans an action-packed, cooperative spider-hunting experience.

Developed by Casey Donnellan Games, Kill It With Fire 2 is officially set to release on May 7, 2026, with a launch price of $14.99 on the Nintendo eShop.

Expanding the unique blend of humor and chaos that made the original a standout on Nintendo Switch, Kill It With Fire 2 is being described as the "ultimate co-op spider-hunting experience." Players once again step into the shoes of the Exterminator, embarking on a mission to clear the multiverse of an ever-growing spider infestation.

This time, the action supports both solo play and robust online co-op for up to four players, delivering greater flexibility for extermination enthusiasts.

For those seeking competition, the new Humans vs Spiders PvP mode delivers frantic, laugh-out-loud multiplayer matches.

According to verified Nintendo sources, Kill It With Fire 2 is fully supported on the new Switch 2 hardware.

Players can expect consistent gameplay and features across both Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 platforms, ensuring that no matter which system you own, the spider-hunting chaos remains the same.

The game boasts an impressive arsenal, featuring over 45 diverse weapons and gadgets.

From smashing spiders with newspapers to wielding flamethrowers, miniguns, rocket launchers, and even laser swords, players have a wealth of options for tackling the arachnid menace.

Each mission takes the extermination team across seven distinctly themed worlds—including a haunted manor, Wild West town, digital cyberspace, and even Spider Hell—offering a fresh challenge in every location.

A variety of challenges spice up the gameplay experience.

Players can craft potions, raze cityscapes as a giant kaiju, protect cactus-owned saloons, or race drones in imaginative virtual arenas.

Notably, the game introduces an online PvP mode, Spider Hunt, in which up to eight players can choose to play as either humans or spiders, turning the tables for an unexpected twist.

The original Kill It With Fire, which released for Nintendo Switch in 2021, was praised for its lighthearted tone and inventive gameplay, earning recognition as an entertaining distraction for action and comedy fans alike.

With this sequel, Casey Donnellan Games appears to have doubled down on the features players loved, emphasizing both cooperative play and competitive multiplayer modes.

Kill It With Fire 2 is available to wishlist now on the official Nintendo store page, ahead of its May 7, 2026 launch.

With confirmed support for both Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, and a host of new features designed for online and social play, the title is poised to make an impact among both returning fans and newcomers looking for a fresh, fun-filled take on the extermination genre.
