Dungeons & Dragons: Neverwinter Nights 2 Enhanced Edition Launches July 2025 on Nintendo Switch with Crossplay and Full Expansions

Aspyr has officially unveiled a new pre-order trailer for Dungeons & Dragons: Neverwinter Nights 2 Enhanced Edition, confirming its highly anticipated arrival on Nintendo Switch and other major platforms on July 15, 2025.

This marks the first time the acclaimed 2006 RPG—originally developed by Obsidian Entertainment—will be available on consoles, promising a raft of enhancements and crossplay features tailored to modern audiences. First announced during the PC Gaming Show in June 2025, Aspyr’s Neverwinter Nights 2 Enhanced Edition builds on the legacy of the beloved Dungeons & Dragons franchise with comprehensive updates.

The reveal trailer, now live, gives fans a fresh look at the game’s cooperative multiplayer, robust hero customization options, and full crossplay support, ensuring players across different systems can adventure together seamlessly. In a recent statement, Aspyr highlighted the depth and breadth of the release: “Players can immerse themselves in over 100 hours of classic RPG storytelling and gameplay across four unique campaigns, with all three expansions included in this definitive package.” These expansions—Mask of the Betrayer, Storm of Zehir, and Mysteries of Westgate—expand the narrative well beyond the original campaign, offering fresh challenges, settings, and characters for new and returning heroes. Core upgrades for Neverwinter Nights 2 Enhanced Edition include improved textures and visual fidelity, a variety of gameplay enhancements, full controller support, and for PC players, Steam Workshop integration.

Console players will benefit from newly optimized controls built specifically for gamepads, but can also opt for classic mouse-and-keyboard gameplay—a first for the series on consoles. Pre-orders for the Nintendo Switch version are now open on the eShop, with a limited-time 10% discount reducing the price to $26.99 USD (£22.96) until July 16, 2025; the standard retail price is set at $29.99 USD.

The download package will require approximately 27.6 GB of storage.

Aspyr is also launching a new bundle featuring both Neverwinter Nights Enhanced Edition titles on the same day, offering comprehensive access to the iconic RPGs in enhanced form. The studio behind this expansive re-release, Aspyr, brings with it a proven track record in delivering fan-favorite revivals, including classic titles from the Star Wars and Tomb Raider franchises.

Their stewardship follows on from Beamdog, the team responsible for the original Neverwinter Nights Enhanced Edition and the Baldur's Gate console adaptations. Neverwinter Nights 2 Enhanced Edition offers RPG enthusiasts a unique opportunity to revisit the Forgotten Realms with modern conveniences and an expanded community thanks to built-in crossplay and downloadable content via the Steam Workshop.

With pre-orders active and the Switch release set for July 2025, this definitive edition sets a new benchmark for classic Dungeons & Dragons adaptations on modern hardware.
