Nintendo PAX Aus 2026 Lineup Revealed: Switch 2 Games Galore

Nintendo just dropped its full booth lineup for PAX Aus 2026, and if you're heading to Melbourne this October, you're in for a treat.

The show floor will be packed with Nintendo Switch 2 exclusives and a bunch of heavy hitters from partner studios, giving Aussie players their first proper hands-on time with some of the year's biggest games.

First up, you can get your hands on Nintendo Switch Sports Resort ahead of its October 22 launch, trying out the fresh motion-control sports gameplay for yourself. There's also a dedicated Pikmin Bloom event happening on-site, so fans of the little plant creatures have something extra to look forward to.

Two more hotly anticipated titles are getting playable demos too: Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave and the Pokemon Pokopia DLC. That's a pretty stacked lineup for anyone who wants to sample these games before deciding whether to commit.

It's not just first-party stuff, either. Nintendo's partner publishers are bringing their own big guns to the booth, including Elden Ring and several other highly anticipated releases. You'll be able to jump in and play them right there on the show floor.

The organizers are also putting together a special prize draw for attendees, though the exact rules and rewards won't be revealed until we get closer to the event. If you're keen, keep an eye out for more details in the coming weeks.

PAX Aus 2026 runs from October 9 to 11 at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre, with doors open daily from 10 AM to 6 PM. So if you're in the area, it might be worth clearing your calendar.
