The popular Nintendo Switch game, Animal Crossing: New Horizons, is being updated for the new Switch 2 console on January 15, 2026. This upgraded version will run better and include fresh content. Surprisingly, the update is only $5, much cheaper than previous updates for Nintendo’s first-party games, which usually cost between $10 and $20. Nintendo is also releasing a brand new physical copy of the game specifically for the Switch 2, and the entire game will be stored directly on the console’s card. You can pre-order Animal Crossing: New Horizons for Switch 2 now for $65 at retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, and GameStop.
If you’re getting a Nintendo Switch 2 this holiday season, there are plenty of great games on the way! Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment, a fast-paced action game combining Dynasty Warriors and The Legend of Zelda, launches November 6th only on Switch 2. Then, on November 20th, you can look forward to Kirby Air Riders and the physical release of Hades II, which will be available on Switch 2 for a limited time. And in December, the highly anticipated Metroid Prime 4: Beyond arrives on both Switch and Switch 2.
If you own a Nintendo Switch or Switch 2, be sure to check out the new Pokémon Legends: Z-A and Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 games, both launching in October.
