Entering into a new year understandably quietens down the game schedule as most developers come back from holiday, so there are fewer Nintendo Switch new games to be found in January 2023. There are 62 new games that we know about so far, although there are likely to be plenty of surprises throughout the month too. Here is a list of those titles coming to Nintendo Switch throughout the first month of 2023.
