While Switch 2 may have dominated Nintendo headlines in recent weeks, we still have some Game Boy-flavoured news for Nintendo Switch Online.

Nintendo has added four more games to its Game Boy Classics library for Switch Online members today, promising “adventures, puzzles and space combat galore”. These four games are:

  • Survival Kids
  • Gradius the Interstellar Assault
  • Kirby’s Star Stacker
  • The Sword of Hope

You can check out a trailer for the latest Switch Online Game Boy additions below.

Survival Kids, as the name suggests, is a survival video game developed by Konami. It was first released in 1999. It pops players into the shoes of either a boy named Ken or a girl named Mary, who has become stranded on a deserted island.

The addition of Survival Kids is ahead of a new game in the series arriving on Switch 2 for launch.

Gradius the Interstellar Assault is another Konami number, but this one is set in space with horizontal scrolling gameplay.

Kirby’s Star Stacker is a Kirby-spin off game, which is more puzzle focused, with a block falling mechanic akin to Tetris.

Last up, we have The Sword of Hope, which has a fantasy-bent. Players take on the role of Prince Theo whose father, King Hennessy, has been corrupted by an evil dragon.
