Nintendo Switch Sports Resort is a Nintendo Switch 2 game scheduled for release on October 22, 2026. It was announced during the June 9, 2026 Nintendo Direct and is one of three downloadable titles offered in the Nintendo Switch 2 Choose-Your-Game Set that launches in Japan on November 12.
Nintendo Switch Sports Resort was announced during the June 9, 2026 Nintendo Direct broadcast. The game is set on a resort island and includes 12 sports: ping pong, archery, boxing, tennis, volleyball, bowling, basketball, golf, sumo finger wrestling, skateboarding, marine bike, jump rope, and propeller plane. It is scheduled for release on October 22, 2026, for Nintendo Switch 2. During the Direct, Nintendo's Yoshiaki Koizumi demonstrated finger wrestling gameplay. The title follows the 2022 release of Nintendo Switch Sports and uses motion controls with the Joy-Con 2, including mouse operation for skateboarding. Pre-orders opened after the broadcast ended.
On October 6, 2026, Nintendo announced the Nintendo Switch 2 (Japanese-language, Japan-only) Choose-Your-Game Set, which releases on November 12. The set pairs a Nintendo Switch 2 console with one downloadable game chosen from three options: Mario Kart World, Nintendo Switch Sports Resort, and Tomodachi Collection: Waku Waku Life. The price is 63,980 yen including tax.
The inclusion of Nintendo Switch Sports Resort in the bundle puts the game's value in concrete terms. The Japan-only console alone costs 4,000 yen less than the set, so picking any one of the three titles comes out roughly 3,000 to 5,000 yen cheaper than buying the hardware and that game separately. Standalone download prices are 8,980 yen for Mario Kart World, 5,980 yen for Nintendo Switch Sports Resort, and 7,100 yen for Tomodachi Collection: Waku Waku Life, all tax included. Mario Kart World and Nintendo Switch Sports Resort are Nintendo Switch 2 titles, while Tomodachi Collection: Waku Waku Life is Nintendo Switch software.
