Grab your headband and get ready to move in Nintendo Switch Sports Resort!
26 October 2026
Nintendo Switch Sports Resort is all set and ready to go—exclusively for the Nintendo Switch 2! Head to the starting line and get ready to compete—solo or with a friend*, in person or online**—using intuitive motion controls.
Grab your Joy-Con™ 2 controllers (and in most cases any Joy-Con controller you may already have!) and get ready to use them as rackets, bows, and…thumbs?!
Yup!
So, let’s go through the 12 sports you’ll find across the land, sea, and sky.
Boxing
Table Tennis
Archery
Tennis
Volleyball
Bowling
Basketball
Golf
Thumb Wrestling
Skateboarding***
Power Cruising
Prop Plane
In addition to the 12 sports available, you can choose from three different times of day to freely explore the island. Chase dolphins in the ocean, search for hidden hibiscus flowers, or collect Spocco Photos to get info on sightseeing spots around the resort.
Challenge increasingly tough opponents as you try to climb to 1st place in Island Crowns. Rumour has it that if you become a truly elite competitor, you’ll get a chance to face off against seasoned champs called Island Legends.
Create and play as a Sportsmate or your very own Mii™ character. As you play, you’ll earn Spocco Points that you can use to unlock a variety of cosmetic options in the Item Center. From hairstyles to outfits and accessories, you can stylise your character to look their best while facing any opponent.
Remember to check the Item Center each week—collections are randomised, so you'll never quite know what you'll find!
But if you’re on the haunt for a few more themed cosmetic items…
Every month, you’ll be able to look forward to special items that will appear in the Item Center. As a matter of fact, during October, we’ve conjured up a few items that will have you creepin’ it real (scary) on the playing field! Just be sure to get your treats before they disappeaaaaaaaar.
Looking to take the competition to the masses, but you’re not sure if a Nintendo Switch Online membership** is right for you? You can get in the swing of casual and ranked matches with a free 7-day trial—even if you’ve already tried it!
We hope you’ll enjoy your time at the island resort.
