As we know, the new Nintendo Switch 2 was recently launched on 5th June, 2025. The Switch 2 has many new features with a great upgrade on hardware, and Nintendo has now also introduced support for 120 frames per second (FPS), enabling ultra-smooth gameplay on compatible displays.
This might sound great, but players need to know that there are actually very few titles that support this all-new 120 FPS milestone and can use the device at its full potential. This article will cover all the games that use the maximum capabilities of the Switch 2 and also deliver the 120 FPS milestone, bringing an immersive experience for all the console owners out there.
Best high-resolution games to play on Nintendo Switch 2
Here are the following few titles that deliver 120 FPS and provide an immersive experience to the console owners:
Confirmed titles as of June 2025:
As of early June 2025, there are officially only three games that support 120 FPS on Nintendo Switch 2.
Metroid Prime 4
: Beyond
In Performance Mode, this installment runs at 120 FPS (1080p docked, 720p handheld). Quality Mode targets 60 FPS at 4K in TV mode. A 120 Hz compatible display is necessary for full benefit.

Current limitations
In order to get 120 FPS, there should be an external monitor that is capable of 120 Hz or a TV to dock 120 FPS from the console. Since without it the console remains on 60 FPS in 4K and cannot display higher refresh rates. Also, some games may use 120 Hz to maintain smoother lower frame rates or for VRR (variable refresh rate), rather than actual 120 FPS gameplay.
These were the above two titles that are currently confirmed by Nintendo to support 120 frames per second. With this, the console also has support for 120 Hz, which will make the gameplay smoother for the console owners. Not forgetting that the Switch 2 supports 4K output but only on an external TV or monitor, as the console display has a resolution of 1080p. Adding an external monitor will truly provide the best experience for the console owners, with few titles also unlocking the 120 FPS mark.
Until then, gamers better keep an eye on every new release to fully exploit the console's capabilities.

Nintendo Switch 2 is a global hit, but how do you buy one in India?
The Nintendo Switch 2 is off to a record start, becoming the company's fastest-selling console with 3.5 million units sold globally within four days of its 5 June 2025 launch. For prospective buyers in India, however, the situation is more complex. As the console has not been officially released in the country, interested consumers are left without direct access. Consequently, many are turning to grey market importers through both online and off-line sellers to get their hands on the gaming console. However, before considering this route, it is crucial to understand the associated pros, cons, and other important nuances. Based on extensive research, this guide explains where you can get the console and what you need to remember before making a purchase. Also Read: Canon EOS R50 V review: Pro vibes, minus the price Now, because Nintendo has not officially launched the console in the country, people have been buying it from online and grey channels. This was the same for the original Nintendo Switch and the Switch OLED, and it is going to be the same for the Nintendo Switch 2, unless Nintendo decides to launch the console officially in India in the future. For now, we have noticed that the Nintendo Switch 2 is available on Amazon India. You will see that the standard version of the console is retailing for ₹75,999. Of course, this is a lot more than the official MRP, which is $449 (this works out to around ₹37,000). So, if you do the maths, you will be paying more than ₹40,000 to get your hands on the Nintendo Switch 2. We also noticed that games are available on Amazon India, including Hogwarts Legacy, which retails for around ₹4,000. We could also verify from buyers in India that they have bought directly from smaller retailers like Nevako, which is selling the Switch 2 for ₹49,999 for the standard variant and ₹59,999 for the Mario Kart Edition bundle. However, the same person also told us that order times can be long as the console is in high demand, and they have not received their 'pre-ordered' console yet. Note: We are not promoting buying from these websites, so do so at your own risk. If you want to buy completely worry-free, you can also have a look at off-line resellers. We got in touch with multiple off-line retailers in New Delhi's Gaffar Market, who quoted us different price points. For instance, Magic Land Games in Gaffar Market, quoted us ₹55,000-58,000 for the standard variant and said that games were available as well. The shop owner also mentioned that the Mario Kart World bundle isn't available yet. So, if you are in the market for the Switch 2 and cannot wait, you can head to off-line stores and check if they are importing the console from overseas. There are two main things you need to know. Firstly, if you are going to be buying the Switch 2 in India from these grey channels, or even directly from Amazon India, you should know that there is going to be no warranty or after-sales support with the console. Because the console has not launched officially in India, there are going to be no service centres from Nintendo directly. So, if something goes wrong during your ownership experience, you will have to get it repaired on the off-line market at third-party places. This was also the case for the original Switch. Therefore, if you want after-sales support, it is best to avoid the console for now. Secondly, the prices you are currently paying are highly inflated. They are expected to come down as and when the Switch 2's availability becomes normal and as the demand eventually subsides. Because the Switch 2 launched only a few days ago, the demand is currently very high. We have seen people lining up at official stores in places where the console has launched, including GameStop stores where people waited in lines, which goes to show how in-demand the console is. So, if you can wait, we would suggest waiting for a month or two before actually buying it. The price is expected to come down; currently, prices are inflated by almost 50 to 60 per cent.

Chrome may soon get AI Mode for direct answers in your browser's search bar
Google is testing a new way to bring artificial intelligence directly into its Chrome browser. Following recent moves to highlight AI features in its Google app, the company has started experimenting with an 'AI Mode' in Chrome's latest Canary build. This addition aims to give users quicker access to AI-generated answers right from the browser's search bar. The AI Mode icon appears near the existing voice and image search buttons (spotted by the Windows Report) on the Chrome New Tab page. When users click the icon, a text box opens where they can type questions or prompts. The system then provides an AI-generated response, which will let users interact and follow up easily within the browser itself.
