Nintendo Switch 2 gains more native software as Minecraft gets an ESRB rating

Nintendo Switch 2’s software lineup is expanding again, with Minecraft appearing in the ESRB classification database as a separate Switch 2 entry. The listing suggests a native version is on the way rather than just the backward-compatible Switch edition already playable on the system. The report says a Switch 2 version could improve performance, image quality, and stability. nintendoeverything.com

Another major release is also landing on the console this week: Square Enix has prepared a launch trailer for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth on Nintendo Switch 2. The coverage frames it as a follow-up to Final Fantasy 7 Remake and another big RPG arriving for the platform. nintendoeverything.com

Beyond those game additions, Nintendo’s broader momentum continues to show in related cross-media success and wider third-party support. The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is described as the highest-grossing title of 2026, while Hakuoki Memoirs: Drifting Clouds is set for its first English release in North America and Europe in 2027 on Nintendo Switch. Together, the items point to a busy pipeline around Nintendo’s hardware and brands. automaton-media.com nintendoeverything.com
