Switch 2 Gets Exclusive Nintendo Titles
Nintendo is leveraging November to showcase the Switch 2’s capabilities with two major exclusive releases. Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment takes players back to the Imprisoning War from Tears of the Kingdom, featuring Princess Zelda teaming up with King Rauru and Queen Sonia to stop Ganondorf’s invasion. The game supports local two-player split-screen co-op through the innovative GameShare feature.
Kirby Air Riders arrives on November 20 as a follow-up to the 2003 GameCube classic, delivering fast-paced vehicle racing action. Game director Masahiro Sakurai presented extensive gameplay details across two livestreams, demonstrating the Boost Charge system where players drift to fill their gauge and trigger explosive dashes. Collectible Amiibo figures will accompany the launch.
Call of Duty and Free-to-Play MMO Dominate Mid-Month
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 launches November 14, marking an unusual back-to-back sequel in the Black Ops sub-series. Set in 2035, the game follows David Mason leading an elite team to prevent global chaos, with the traditional multiplayer and round-based Zombies modes included. The release timing positions it directly against Battlefield 6’s impact on the franchise.
Where Winds Meet, a stunning free-to-play open-world RPG set in 10th-century China, debuts globally the same day. The game combines Wuxia martial arts combat with breathtaking visuals and player-driven narrative choices. Despite being an MMO, developers emphasize strong single-player viability with multiplayer as a secondary feature.
STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl arrives on PS5 November 20, exactly one year after its PC and Xbox launch. Recent patches have addressed launch issues, making this the ideal time for PlayStation gamers to explore the Exclusion Zone’s dangerous anomalies and powerful artifacts.
