Nintendo Switch 2 owners can mark their calendars for a supernatural mystery game that has already earned rave reviews on other platforms. The Nintendo Switch 2 wasted no time building an impressive library of games. The latest home console/handheld hybrid from Nintendo launched with a brand-new Mario Kart game, and just a little over a month later, it added the critically-acclaimed GOTY nominee Donkey Kong Bananza to its lineup.
Exciting new games have been released on the Switch 2 fairly consistently since its early days, but the console is also home to plenty of notable ports of older games. Sometimes these games have already been on competing platforms like PlayStation and Xbox for some time, whereas other times they were only on PC and are making their console debuts on Switch 2. Such is the case with The Seance of Blake Manor, set to launch on Switch 2, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S on October 27.
When is The Seance of Blake Manor Coming to Switch 2?
The Seance of Blake Manor is a supernatural mystery game that was originally released in 2025 on PC. The Seance of Blake Manor earned high scores from critics and is in fact one of the highest-rated new game releases of all of 2025. But it’s not just critics singing the praises of The Seance of Blake Manor. Steam users have also had nothing but great things to say about the game, earning it an impressive 4.6/5 rating on the platform, which translates to 9.2/10 on a 10-point scale. Needless to say, The Seance of Blake Manor should be a surefire home run when it launches on the Nintendo Switch 2 on October 27.
For those that are unfamiliar with the game, The Seance of Blake Manor is set in a creepy hotel where a woman has gone missing. Players explore the hotel, discovering the truth behind its various mysteries, while chatting with hotel staff and guests to learn more about them and the missing woman. It should appeal to fans of games like Return of the Obra Dinn and Blue Prince, and while it’s not a full-blown horror game, it’s got enough spooky vibes to make for a great game to play on Halloween.
The Seance of Blake Manor isn’t the only exciting new Switch 2 port releasing in October 2026. The first two Octopath Traveler games are getting native Switch 2 releases in October as well, and will be joined by games like Epic Mickey: Rebrushed, The Crew Motorfest, Earth Defense Force 5, Hell is Us, Once Upon a Katamari, It Takes Two, LEGO Harry Potter Collection, multiple Resident Evil games, and Minecraft: Bedrock Edition, among other games.
Switch 2 gamers more interested in completely brand-new releases have a lot to look forward to in October as well. There’s Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival, Order of the Sinking Star, Final Fantasy Resonance, and more. Plus, Nintendo Switch Sports Resort will serve as the big new Switch 2 exclusive releasing in October, with that game set to drop on October 22.
