Earlier this year, Nintendo officially revealed the Nintendo Switch 2, with a huge segment of the reveal showcase dedicated to games coming from third party publishers and developers.

In an interview with Variety , Microsoft’s Phil Spencer voiced his own support for the console, saying that it and its predecessor are a “unique” way for Microsoft to reach players. He also said that he is a “big believer” in Nintendo and sees mutual support as “an important part” of Microsoft Gaming’s future.

So we’ve been supporting Switch 1, I want to support Switch 2. Nintendo has been a great partner. We think it is a unique way for us to reach players who aren’t PC players, who aren’t players on Xbox. It lets us continue to grow our community of people that care about the franchises that we have, and that’s really important for us to make sure we continue to invest in our games. I’m really a big believer in what Nintendo means for this industry and us continuing to support them. And getting the support from them for our franchises, I think, is an important part of our future.

Although Microsoft did not have much of a presence at Nintendo’s Switch 2 reveal, there have been many rumors swirling about what games they are bringing to the console, including the Doom: The Dark Ages and Halo: The Master Chief Collection. Stay tuned for more updates as they come.
