With Xbox bringing more games to other platforms, word has just emerged of Bethesda's first game heading to Switch 2. Now, a leak suggests that another Bethesda game, Starfield, is also on the way to the handheld.
Yesterday's Gamescom Opening Night Live presentation included the announcement of a Switch 2 port of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle coming out sometime in 2026--and according to NateTheHate, Starfield will come out on Nintendo's recently released console in the same year.
Indiana Jones & the Great Circle won't be the only Bethesda game coming to Nintendo Switch 2 in 2026.
See that planet? You can go there.

NateTheHate also claimed that Starfield is indeed coming to PlayStation 5, as rumors have persisted since the RPG's 2023 release. A separate report from this month alleges that Starfield will release on PS5 in the spring of 2026.
While Bethesda has not officially confirmed plans for Starfield receiving a multiplatform release outside of Xbox and PC, Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer stated his intention to support the Switch 2 in the past. Putting out the highly acclaimed Indiana Jones and the Great Circle may be the first step of the publisher's Switch 2 strategy.
Besides Indiana Jones, there is a strong precedent for Bethesda games on the original Switch, including ports of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Doom Eternal, and Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus. Microsoft-owned Activision also committed to bringing Call of Duty titles to Nintendo platforms, but there has yet to be any indication of Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 coming to Switch 2.
Switch 2 ports of Indiana Jones and Starfield should also prove to be interesting cases on how current-generation games run on the handheld platform--on the lower-end Xbox Series S, Starfield has multiple performance options, including 30fps and 60fps modes. And from the perspective of Starfield players, the release of a Switch 2 version may give them hope of Bethesda giving the title some additional attention.
