Monster Hunter Rise saw massive success following its release in March of this year. However, amidst fierce competition from some of Nintendo's biggest heavy-hitters, Capcom would ultimately emerge victorious as Monster Hunter Rise would lead the charge for the Switch in 2021. Nintendo saw many of its first-party franchises receive new games during the calendar year including Super Mario 3D World and Metroid Dread while third-party titles like Among Us and Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town surged to popularity over the course of the year. This year was big for the Nintendo Switch with plenty of major titles both from Nintendo and a variety of third-party developers.
