Nintendo may be keeping its release calendar for 2026 under wraps for now, but the company already has a couple of big games lined up for next year, including Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream. The highly anticipated follow-up to the hit 3DS game, Living the Dream is a quirky life sim in which players create Miis and watch the humorous interactions they have as they live out their daily lives as part of an island community.
Nintendo will undoubtedly have a lot more to share about the game as we get closer to its release, but in the meantime, here’s everything we know about Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream so far.
When will Tomodachi Life: Living The Dream be released?
Nintendo has yet to pin down a firm release date for Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream, but the company has confirmed the game will launch sometime in 2026.
What platforms is Tomodachi Life: Living The Dream on?
At the moment, Nintendo has only confirmed that Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream will be released for the original Switch. The company has not yet said anything about a potential Nintendo Switch 2 Edition of the game.
Considering that several other upcoming Switch 1 titles (such as Metroid Prime 4: Beyond and Pokemon Legends: Z-A) will be cross-gen, it’s possible this could also apply to Tomodachi Life. However, nothing has been confirmed as of yet. At the very least, the game should be playable on Switch 2 through backwards compatibility.
Preorder Tomodachi Life: Living The Dream
With its release date still a ways off, retailers have not yet begun taking preorders for Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream.
Price
Nintendo has not yet announced how much Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream will cost. While most first-party Switch 1 titles typically retail for $60, it remains to be seen if that will be the case for Tomodachi Life as well.
