THQ Nordic’s website now lists seven unannounced projects specifically for the Nintendo Switch 2, with additional TBA titles appearing for the original Switch.
The discovery, first spotted on the GamingLeaksAndRumours subreddit and confirmed across THQ Nordic’s official site, shows dedicated slots labeled “Unannounced Project, TBA” under a Switch 2 section. Insider Gaming reported the count as seven, while Nintendo Life noted similar placeholders for other platforms, including Gothic 1 Remake and Darksiders 4 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. The original Switch section lists six unannounced projects, with The Eternal Life of Goldman — revealed at the recent Xbox Partner Showcase — appearing as the seventh, though it remains unclear if What we have is a Switch 2-specific edition or will run via backward compatibility.
THQ Nordic, now under Embracer Group, has been a steady supporter of Nintendo’s hybrid platform, bringing titles like Darksiders, Let’s Sing, SpongeBob SquarePants, and Gothic to the Switch. Earlier in April, the publisher confirmed Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed, both Destroy All Humans! titles, and SpongeBob SquarePants: Titans of the Tide for the Switch family. The timing of the website update suggests preparation for mid-year showcase events, where further details may emerge.
Last year, rumors circulated that Nintendo had withheld Switch 2 dev kits from Embracer due to trust concerns, but those kits have since been distributed widely. This shift may have cleared the way for THQ Nordic to initiate active development, though the current listings could still represent internal placeholders rather than confirmed titles.
THQ Nordic’s history with Nintendo suggests a pattern of quiet support followed by steady releases
The publisher has consistently released mid-tier and nostalgic IPs on Switch without heavy marketing pushes, often relying on word-of-mouth and niche appeal. This approach mirrors their strategy during the Wii U era, when they brought titles like Metro: Last Light and Sonic Boom despite low install bases. Their current activity indicates a similar long-term bet on Nintendo’s hardware longevity.
The Switch 2’s backward compatibility complicates efforts to distinguish between new ports and native developments
Since all Switch games are expected to run on Switch 2, It’s hard to determine whether THQ Nordic’s unannounced projects are built for the new hardware or simply existing titles slated for release on the successor. This ambiguity is compounded by the lack of datamining traces in the website code, as noted by the Reddit user who first flagged the listings.
Summer gaming events could clarify THQ Nordic’s Switch 2 roadmap
With major showcases like Nintendo Direct, Summer Game Fest, and Xbox’s June briefing on the horizon, the window for official reveals is narrowing. If THQ Nordic intends to debut any of these projects publicly, the next six weeks offer the most likely opportunity.
