Report: First Call of Duty for Switch 2 Nears Completion, Targeting 2026

Neither Nintendo nor Activision has announced the title or release date.

Overview

  • Windows Central’s Jez Corden says the initial Switch version is nearly finished and is expected to launch in a few months, pointing to a 2026 window.
  • Corden attributes earlier delays to developers not receiving Switch 2 dev kits soon enough, a situation he now says has been resolved.
  • Microsoft’s 2023, legally binding 10-year agreement committed to releasing Call of Duty on Nintendo platforms with day-one feature and content parity.
  • Outlets note uncertainty over which product comes first, with possibilities including Warzone, a recent mainline entry such as Black Ops 7, or an older optimized release.
  • The release would mark the franchise’s first appearance on a Nintendo system since Call of Duty: Ghosts on Wii U in 2013, with stronger hardware seen as a key enabler.
