Let’s start this one off here by being clear. Dispatch has not been confirmed to be coming to Switch and Switch 2 by Ad Hoc, but what we have found is that the Australian version of Nintendo’s eShop has only gone and listed one of the best games of the year and has a big blue pre-order button for it.
Now, this looks like a mistake, but if we are to take it as more than just a placeholder, we are getting a Switch 2 Edition and a Digital Deluxe Edition priced at $39.55 / $52.65 (Australian dollars presumably).
When is Dispatch coming to Nintendo Switch?
The dates given on this page list Dispatch as making its Nintendo Switch appearance on 29th January 2026, and from there, you seem to be able to pre-order
We have linked the page above, but don’t know how long it will remain active. It could go dark, so if you get an error, it means somebody has cottoned on to it being out there and took a hammer to it.
Dispatch was released in episodic format throughout November and proved to be a huge hit, forcing choice-driven games back into the limelight courtesy of its stellar cast of voice actors and great story.
In truth, it was a far bigger hit than the devs ever expected, and now there will be pressure to follow it up with a sequel, so we can find out what our hapless bunch of office-working superheroes can get up to next.
