Disney, the entertainment giant, has a vast portfolio spanning films, television, theme parks, and video games. For over three decades, they've delivered video game adaptations of beloved movies and created original titles like *Kingdom Hearts* and *Epic Mickey*. The Nintendo Switch boasts a diverse selection of Disney games, perfect for solo play or shared family fun. Whether you're unwinding at home or taking a break from a Disney theme park visit, there's a Switch game to match your mood.
How Many Disney Games Are on the Nintendo Switch?
Defining what constitutes a "Disney" game can be tricky these days. However, a total of **11 Disney games have been released on the Switch** since its 2017 launch. This includes three movie tie-ins, a *Kingdom Hearts* spin-off, and a collection of classic Disney titles. (Note: Numerous *Star Wars* games, also under the Disney umbrella, are available on the Switch but aren't included here for brevity.)
Not all Disney games are created equal, and the combination of the Disney brand and often higher Nintendo Switch game prices means careful consideration is needed. However, some recent titles stand out. If you crave immersion in the Disney universe, *Dreamlight Valley* is an excellent choice. This *Animal Crossing*-style game lets you rebuild Dreamlight Valley with the help of beloved Disney and Pixar characters, each with unique quests.
All Disney and Pixar Games on Switch (in Release Order)
Technically a Pixar title, *Cars 3: Driven to Win* was also released on the Nintendo 3DS. This racing game features 20 tracks based on locations from the *Cars 3* movie and includes 20 customizable characters, some unlocked from the start (like Lightning McQueen), while others (Mater, Chick Hicks) require gameplay progression across five modes and Master Events.
Blending storylines from both *Incredibles* films, *LEGO The Incredibles* delivers a classic LEGO gaming experience. Similar to *LEGO Star Wars* games, it features some creative liberties with the source material, introducing original villains alongside familiar foes. The game is enjoyable, particularly Elastigirl's stretchy abilities.
Inspired by the popular Tsum Tsum collectible toys and mobile game, *Disney Tsum Tsum Festival* is a charming party game. It offers 10 minigames for solo or multiplayer fun, including bubble hockey, curling, and more. The classic mobile puzzle game is also playable in vertical mode.
This rhythm-action game, a spin-off from the *Kingdom Hearts* series, lets players control Sora, Donald, Goofy, and other characters, battling to the rhythm of the series' iconic soundtrack. Enjoy solo play or local/online multiplayer battles. The game serves as a recap of the series leading up to *Kingdom Hearts 3*, setting the stage for *Kingdom Hearts 4*.
An updated version of a previous release, this collection includes enhanced versions of *Aladdin*, *The Lion King*, and *The Jungle Book*, encompassing various console and handheld versions. Features include an interactive museum, rewind function, expanded soundtrack, and a retro manual (physical copy only).
A remaster of the 3DS title, *Disney Magical World 2: Enchanted Edition* shares similarities with *Dreamlight Valley*. Players befriend Disney and Pixar characters, completing quests and engaging in farming, crafting, and combat. The game syncs with the system clock for seasonal events.
A unique visual novel set thousands of years after *Tron: Legacy*, *Tron: Identity* focuses on a detective program investigating a Grid explosion. Players make choices affecting relationships and must solve puzzles to progress the narrative.
A kart racing game with brawling elements, *Disney Speedstorm* features a wide roster of Disney characters with unique skills and vehicles. While the racing is solid, the in-game economy has drawn some criticism.
Mickey, Minnie, Donald, and Goofy embark on a Metroidvania-style adventure to recover stolen tomes on Monoth Island. Enjoyable in single-player or co-op mode.
A life-sim game blending Disney and *Animal Crossing* elements, *Dreamlight Valley* lets players rebuild the valley with the help of Disney characters. The game features crafting, cooking, and friendship building.
A remastered version of the original Wii game, *Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed* features improved performance, enhanced graphics, and new abilities. Players control Mickey Mouse, attempting to prevent the "Blot" from destroying forgotten character memories.
Upcoming Disney Games on Nintendo Switch
While new *Star Wars* games are consistently in development, no other new Disney games for 2025 have been confirmed. *Dreamlight Valley* continues to receive updates, and *Kingdom Hearts 4* is in development, though a release date remains unannounced. News regarding future Disney games may coincide with further announcements about the Nintendo Switch 2.
