Drag x Drive Showcases Gameplay in New Overview Trailer

Nintendo’s up to some wild stuff again, and they just dropped an eight-minute sneak peek of this game, Drag x Drive, right before their big Global Jam demo on August 9-10, 2025. You know, Nintendo’s like that friend who throws these curveballs at you during casual hangs.

So, back during the Switch 2 reveal—yeah, Switch 2, because why not?—they hinted at this whole new vibe: Drag and Drive. And dude, it’s a whirlwind! Picture this: online sports, three teams head-to-head, and you’re using your mouse with the Joy-Con 2. Steering, speeding, all that jazz, but with extra chaos thrown in. Tricks and dunks happening left and right. I swear, at one point, I got so into it that I almost knocked my drink over. Classic me, right?

We had a blast playing it, but there’s this nagging voice in the back of my head. You know, the one that pops up when you’re debating whether to splurge on something or not. Like, “Is this going to find its people?” The controls—mouse and Joy-Con—honestly, it’s smoother than I thought, but sustaining a crowd? That’s the real kicker.

Anyway, mark your calendar because come August 14, 2025, it’s going digital on the eShop. Exclusively on Switch 2, of course. Go figure. I’m still wrapping my head around it all.
