[ShortieGamez]

Nintendo Switch Online subscribers now have a new game to play, as Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance has shadow dropped on the GameCube app for Switch 2. The sudden appearance of Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance marked the first classic Nintendo title to launch on Nintendo Switch Online in 2026.

Now, 20 years after Path of Radiance was originally released, one of Fire Emblem's more popular titles has arrived for a new audience to enjoy. Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance is the eighth GameCube title to arrive on the Nintendo Switch Online service, and is now available for subscribers. Like other GameCube titles on the Switch 2, Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance requires an active Nintendo Switch Online subscription along with the Expansion Pack upgrade. Users must also ensure the Nintendo GameCube: Nintendo Classics app for the Switch 2 has been updated, as Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance requires a short download before players can jump in.

How excited are you to play Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance on Nintendo Switch 2?

I am pretty excited to try Path of Radiance! Always played Ike in Super Smash Bros. Brawl since Roy wasn't available, so will be pretty cool to get to try Ike's game. On top of that, this game was pretty much a no-go previously if you wanted to play it legally, so making it available as part of the already-generous Nintendo Classics service is awesome!
