Nintendo has pushed out another round of Switch 2 backwards compatibility patches, addressing issues in nine original Switch titles that were not running correctly on the new hardware.
The fixes cover a range of genres and publishers, from Capcom‘s Monster Hunter Stories to the co-op cooking game Overcooked! All You Can Eat. Nintendo has been releasing these patches on a rolling basis since the Switch 2 launched in June 2026, working through the portion of the original Switch library that showed problems on the newer system.
Nine titles now fixed for Switch 2 backwards compatibility
The following games receive patches in this latest update:
- Buddy Collection if
- Dragon Quest Builders
- Laysara: Summit Kingdom
- Monster Hunter Stories
- Neon Inferno
- Overcooked! All You Can Eat
- This is Fine: Maximum Cope
- Top Cop – Police Training
- Wolfenstein: Youngblood
The range spans major publishers and smaller studios. Dragon Quest Builders, the construction RPG from Square Enix, and Wolfenstein: Youngblood from MachineGames are among the more prominent titles receiving attention. The patch for Monster Hunter Stories resolves issues in a title that has been popular on Switch since its 2021 release.
Seven games with issues still pending
Seven titles have documented compatibility problems but are absent from this batch of fixes. Ghost Master: Resurrection has DLC progression problems. Grandia HD Collection suffers from in-game slowdown. Resident Evil 5 has audio glitches when running on Switch 2.
Four titles are currently classified as unsupported: Attack On Titan 2, Crypt Carnage, Megadimension Neptunia VII, and Truck Simulator USA. All four have progression-blocking problems. The unsupported classification means Nintendo has not committed to patching them, though titles have previously moved out of that category in earlier update cycles.
The Switch 2 backwards compatibility programme
Before the Switch 2 launch, Nintendo stated that the vast majority of the original Switch library would run on the new hardware, but acknowledged some titles would have issues and not all would be resolved. A compatibility checker tool was made available ahead of launch so players could verify their libraries.
Fixes have arrived in batches since the Switch 2 went on sale, covering dozens of titles across multiple updates. The pattern points to an ongoing triage process where titles receive patches as engineers work through them, rather than a single fixed cutoff date.
For players affected by the remaining issues, particularly the four unsupported titles, no timeline has been given. Those games carry progression-blocking problems more severe than the audio or performance issues seen in other titles, which may explain the delay. Whether Nintendo will address them or leave them unsupported long-term has not been announced.
Players whose games are in this patch do not need to take manual action. Fixes for Switch titles in Switch 2 backwards compatibility mode download automatically when the console connects to the internet.
