Nintendo Switch eShop Update: Final Wave of Games Arrives Before Switch 2 Launch

As the Nintendo Switch approaches the end of its life cycle, Nintendo has released its final North American eShop update before the highly anticipated launch of the Switch 2 next week.

This week's Nintendo Download brings an array of fresh titles to the Nintendo Switch eShop, offering everything from indie puzzle adventures to fast-paced action games—and signaling the end of an era for the original Switch platform. Switch eShop – Notable New Releases Among the highlights is 'Wilmot Works It Out' from indie powerhouse Finji, known for its creative portfolio and critical acclaim.

In this charming puzzle game, players guide Wilmot as he unwinds by arranging intricate puzzles and customizing his in-game home, blending relaxing gameplay with continuous personalisation.

"Each puzzle completed opens up new ways for players to make Wilmot's world truly their own," states Finji in an official game overview. A diverse lineup rounds out this week's eShop update.

Regista introduces 'Another World Series -Slit Mouth Woman VS AOONI-', an atmospheric horror adventure launching May 29 for $13.79, while HAMSTER brings back arcade nostalgia with 'Arcade Archives RYUKYU', a revival of the 1990 puzzle classic, for $7.99.

Fans of classic genres will also find a modern pinball twist in 'Pinball Spire' (indie.io) and a fresh bubble-popping spin with 'Bubble Trouble: Adventures' from No Gravity Games. For action enthusiasts, 'Call of Glory – Critical Warfare' (PrimeInvestCapital) delivers intense first-person shooting scenarios, and CyberConnect2’s 'Fuga: Melodies of Steel 3' (May 29, $39.99) continues its celebrated tactical RPG saga, promising another deep narrative journey for returning fans. In the ever-growing indie segment, creative offerings include 'Cipher Monk' (Afil Games), which draws inspiration from medieval mathematics to deliver unique number puzzles, and 'Jamjam' (No Gravity Games), a challenging platformer starring a jelly-like protagonist.

Younger gamers and families can look forward to 'The JerryMaya Detective Agency' (Cable Nest), a title adapted from beloved Swedish children’s literature. Industry Context and Platform Milestones This latest Nintendo Download is especially significant as it marks the final all-digital lineup ahead of the next Nintendo console generation.

Since its 2017 launch, the Nintendo Switch has sold over 139 million units worldwide, making it one of the top-selling consoles in gaming history.

The breadth and longevity of support for the eShop is evident, with weekly game drops ranging from household names to innovative indie debuts. Looking ahead, anticipation for the Nintendo Switch 2—set to debut next Thursday—reflects the company's ongoing commitment to expanding its hardware and digital marketplace.

As the current eShop offerings close out the Switch 1 chapter, Nintendo cements its legacy as a hub for creativity, variety, and accessible gaming experiences. Whether you are a longtime collector or new to the platform, this week’s Nintendo eShop update offers a range of options to round out your Switch library.
