Description

Content Warning, the 2024 sensation in cooperative survival horror gaming, has been confirmed for release on the highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 platform in 2026.

Developed by a talented indie team, the game captured a global audience with its innovative gameplay—challenging players to form teams and brave a terrifying subterranean world in search of viral content for their fictional “SpöökTube” channel. The announcement was officially made during the Nintendo Indie World Showcase on August 7, 2025, solidifying Content Warning’s arrival on Nintendo’s next-generation hardware.

This move is set to expand the game’s fast-growing community, offering current and new players the chance to experience its unique blend of horror and comedic multiplayer antics on a portable, next-gen system. Gameplay in Content Warning centers around up to four online players, who cooperate as a tight-knit team of content creators.

The goal? Venture deep into the forbidding ruins of “The Old World,” document chilling encounters with monsters, and return to the surface with enough captivating footage to satisfy the stringent viewer quotas of SpöökTube.

Every expedition becomes a tense balance between teamwork, survival, and getting the perfect shot—which has helped the title stand out among recent multiplayer survival games. Since its original release in 2024, Content Warning amassed a significant following, celebrated for its replayability, unpredictable scares, and the creative ways players interact to capture content.

The Switch 2 adaptation promises to bring all of these core experiences to Nintendo’s upcoming platform, leveraging its enhanced multiplayer capabilities and portable design to further immerse players in the game’s haunted underground environments. In an official statement at the Indie World Showcase, a representative from the development team expressed excitement about the new platform release, affirming their commitment to delivering the same "thrilling, community-driven content loop that made Content Warning a surprise hit" to the Nintendo Switch 2 audience.

The team emphasized their goal to keep the multiplayer experience seamless and engaging, regardless of platform. Content Warning will be available on Nintendo Switch 2 in 2026.

As anticipation builds, fans and newcomers alike look forward to seeing how this genre-blending title continues to innovate in the cooperative survival landscape.
