Switch 2 local co-op and multiplayer games

37 games. Rule: Every Switch 2 listing in our database whose nintendo.com page shows two or more players on a single system.

Nintendo's store splits "No. of players" three ways: Single system, Local wireless (one console per player in the same room) and Online. Only the single-system number tells you how many people can play on one Switch 2, so this list sorts by it.

Nintendo's controller FAQ counts each Joy-Con 2 as its own controller, so the pair that comes with the console already covers two players.

In this list: 14 of the 37 stop at two players on one console and 22 reach four or more (Unrailed 2: Back on Track, DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO and Animal Crossing: New Horizons at the top). 16 also list local wireless play, so a second Switch 2 in the room adds seats. Another 5 games on Switch 2 list online play but a single player per console, so they are left out.
