Get to know GameChat and GameShare with these games
Stay connected with friends and family over the holidays with GameChat* and GameShare**, two great features available on the Nintendo Switch™ 2 system. Here’s a look at some of the games that can be enhanced with these features.
Play with one game using GameShare
You can use GameShare to share supported games with friends and family—even if they don’t have the game. A Nintendo Switch 2 system can share compatible games with a nearby Nintendo Switch 2 or even a Nintendo Switch, letting everyone play.
Check out a few games that support the GameShare feature:
Prepare your loadout and step onto the battlefield as Princess Zelda, King Rauru, and other legendary heroes.

Revisit the epic backyard standoffs you remember, but this time with more levels, fresh twists, and 15 years of never-before-seen franchise history at your fingertips. Share the fun with a friend through GameShare online via GameChat or locally through a wireless connection with another Nintendo Switch 2 or Nintendo Switch system. Defend the back yard in local co-op mode or battle head-to-head in local PvP mode by taking control of the Zombies.
Play your way with an overhauled gameplay experience powered by community feedback. Explore the Competitive Gameplay and new Authentic Gameplay options via GameShare online over GameChat with another Nintendo Switch 2 owner or through a local wireless connect over both Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch systems.
