Black Myth Wukong rumored for Nintendo Switch 2: Announcement could happen soon

Keep a close eye on the next Direct Partner Showcase

The gaming community is pretty hyped about Game Science’s critically acclaimed action RPG Black Myth Wukong, which might be coming to Nintendo Switch 2.

This rumor has gained strong attention right before the upcoming Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase, which is scheduled for February 5, 2026, at 6 AM PT. Let’s check out more details in this article.

Black Myth Wukong on Switch 2 at some point!

Industry Insider, NateTheHate, who previously shared the information about the Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase, has recently revealed in his YouTube video that Black Myth Wukong might be the next game coming to the Switch 2 console.

However, he added that its inclusion at the Partner Showcase is not guaranteed, so fans may have to wait longer for an official announcement.

If the port is indeed in development, then performance is going to be a major focus in this. The game already struggled and faced many optimization challenges on PC and PS5 at launch. There were many stability issues and frame rate drops reported by the players.

Since then, multiple updates have improved the performance. However, the Switch 2 port is going to be a major challenge for Game Science.
