Earlier today, February 21, a newNintendo Directpresentation focused on third-party games coming this year. One of the most noteworthy aspects of the presentation was that two Xbox games have finally been confirmed for a Nintendo Switch launch after much rumoring: Pentiment and Grounded.

Grounded is the Obsidian-made survival game, which first launched onXbox Series X/S as part of the ‘Preview Program’ for early access players to partake in. The survival sim will be launching later this year on April 16 for Nintendo Switch, so there isn’t long to wait at all until it’s here.

As for Pentiment, you don’t have long to wait at all until the Medieval adventure game is out on Switch, because it’s debuting on the console tomorrow on February 22. That means not only are two Xbox games coming to Nintendo Switch systems, but they’re both made by Obsidian Games.

Last week, Xbox bossPhil Spencersaidfour Xbox-made games would be coming to other platformsin the near future. Spencer ruled outStarfieldandIndiana Jones and the Great Circle, but now we know two of the four, thanks to today’s new Nintendo presentation.
