Reggie Fils-Aimé Questions Xbox’s Slow Support for Switch 2

His remarks spotlight the gap between Microsoft’s pledge to support the system versus the small number of Xbox-published ports.

Overview

  • Fils-Aimé said he was surprised Xbox has not "fully embraced" Switch 2 and expected a dedicated slate announcement ahead of the holidays.
  • To date, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 is the only major Xbox Game Studios release on Switch 2, with Indiana Jones and the Great Circle planned for 2026.
  • Halo: Combat Evolved was announced for PS5, and Microsoft’s promised Call of Duty support for Nintendo has not yet reached Switch 2.
  • Microsoft’s Phil Spencer has reiterated intentions to back Nintendo’s hardware, describing Switch 2 as a way to reach players beyond PC and Xbox.
  • Fils-Aimé said he initially questioned the launch lineup but credited enhanced Switch 1 titles and Nintendo Switch Online perks for momentum as Switch 2 topped 10 million sales in four months.
