Nintendo’s February 5, 2026 Partner Showcase was a roughly 30-minute presentation of third-party games for Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch. It included new reveals, release-date announcements, ports and enhanced editions, and updates; platform and release details vary by game. This roundup follows the English-language, global-facing presentation, not a complete list of announcements exclusive to the Japanese version.
What Nintendo announced at the February 2026 Partner Showcase
The showcase’s official chapter sequence provides the clearest rundown. Nintendo’s UK event page also grouped games by whether they were available to play, available to pre-order, or available to wishlist at the time of its recap, so the titles below should not be read as having one shared release status.

What stood out about the lineup
Switch 2 got major third-party arrivals
The most prominent Switch 2 announcements included FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH, PRAGMATA, Resident Evil Requiem, and Bethesda games Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered. Nintendo framed the Bethesda announcements as the arrival of those franchises on Switch 2. Todd Howard, Studio Head & Creative Director of Bethesda Softworks, said: “It was incredible for us to partner on the original Nintendo Switch and it was just such a great piece of hardware and so personal when you play. We’re excited to finally bring a number of our franchises for the first time to Nintendo [platforms].”

Some reveals emphasized co-op
Orbitals is designed around two-player cooperation, with asymmetric play and local split-screen or online options. TOKYO SCRAMBLE was presented with local and online team play for up to four players. Nintendo’s announcement described GameShare and GameChat as options for playing together; it did not establish that every listed multiplayer mode works in the same way.
Ports and enhanced editions sat alongside new games
The program was not solely a reveal show. It included games new to Nintendo systems, like FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH and the Bethesda titles, as well as editions labeled for Switch 2 such as Hollow Knight and Disney Dreamlight Valley. Collections, expansions, and updated editions—including SUPER BOMBERMAN COLLECTION, Granblue Fantasy: Relink – Endless Ragnarok, and Tales of ARISE – Beyond the Dawn Edition—rounded out the sequence.

Scope and regional coverage
Nintendo UK and Nintendo of America identify the broadcast date as February 5, 2026. Nintendo Australia’s recap is dated February 6; that is a regional publication date, not a different broadcast. This article covers the English-language, global-facing presentation. Nintendo Life’s roundup explicitly excludes announcements exclusive to the Japanese version, and the official pages cited here do not establish a complete Japan-exclusive list.
Nintendo of America described the presentation as roughly 30 minutes. That figure is the program’s approximate duration, not a statistic about audience size or market response.
