During the recent Nintendo Direct showcase it was announced that both Nobunaga's Ambition: Awakening complete edition and Wild Hearts S will both appear on the Switch 2, with Nobunaga's Ambition launching alongside the Switch 2 on June 5th and Wild Hearts S releasing a few weeks later on July 25th.

BURLINGAME, Calif. – April 2, 2025 – As featured during today’s Nintendo Direct showcase, KOEI TECMO revealed their first two titles for the Nintendo Switch™ 2 system: NOBUNAGA’S AMBITION: Awakening Complete Edition, releasing on June 5, 2025, and WILD HEARTS S, releasing July 25, 2025.

In Kou Shibusawa’s historical simulation, NOBUNAGA’S AMBITION: Awakening Complete Edition, players must learn the finer points of both military might and political cunning. A culmination of the series' 40-year history, players attempt to accomplish Nobunaga Oda's unachieved ambition to unify Japan through a series of escalating war strategies and diplomacy. Optimized for the Nintendo Switch 2 system, including Joy-Con 2 mouse controls, the game not only features DLC from the original title, but also includes six new scenarios along with climactic Decisive Battles. Launch joint offenses with allies, break through the frontlines enroute to enemy castles, and appoint officers to influence both political and economic strategies as players experience the life of a daimyo – a powerful Japanese leader – in the troubled times of the Warring States Period, 16th century Japan. NOBUNAGA’S AMBITION: Awakening Complete Edition will also be available for the PlayStation®5.

Meanwhile, in the fantasy hunting title, WILD HEARTS S, players master ancient tech to hunt down giant beasts inside an imaginative world inspired by feudal Japan! Hunt in a pack of up to four players in seamless co-op or play as a lone wolf as you fight fearsome beasts infused with the ferocious power of nature itself. Craft your hunting grounds and weapons, gear up to hunt, then take down the massive monsters in this chaotic world gone wild. Developed for the Nintendo Switch 2 system by Omega Force, the famed Japanese studio behind the DYNASTY WARRIORS franchise, WILD HEARTS S takes you on an epic adventure of crafting action where the free creation of objects leads to highly strategic hunting and flexible combat.
