The rumor mill is constantly churning: The Nintendo Switch 2 will be released in a few months – several sources are now assuming this. However, Nintendo has still not made an official statement – that should change soon.
There are many rumors about the release of the Nintendo Switch 2: March or April of next year have emerged as possible release months. It is undisputed that the new Nintendo console will appear in 2025 and is considered confirmed. However, the exact date remains a secret. That’s exactly what should change in the current quarter of the year PH Brazil is sure.
The year is coming to an end: information is coming
Fans are sitting on red hot coals when it comes to the release date of the Nintendo Switch 2. Due to the lack of official information, one can currently only rely on rumors to narrow down the release of the successor console. PH Brazil had now confirmed again that he expected the Nintendo Switch 2 to be announced this year. Nintendo itself stated this in the middle of the year. However, in early summer it was said that it would be some time before this important information was available – it was now around five months ago.
It’s quite likely that Nintendo will come out with details about the Nintendo Switch 2 in the remaining weeks of 2024. Because: If the release period around March or April 2025 is actually correct, it will be as fast as possible. The Japanese company may also be making strategic considerations to determine the best time to go public. The release of the Playstation 5 Pro marks an important time for the industry.
Fans will spend a few euros here to buy the completely renovated console. Perhaps Nintendo will release information about the Nintendo Switch 2 within reach of the PS5 Pro release so that fans will think twice about purchasing Sony’s console and save their money to buy the Nintendo Switch 2 instead. Although the target group of both consoles is not the same and the Nintendo Switch is often a second console for ambitious gamers, many people are likely to want to save money given the price increases in recent months – and buy new consoles much more selectively.
So far, everything remains guesswork when it comes to the release of the Nintendo Switch 2. A corresponding Nintendo Direct at the start of the Christmas season would also be conceivable – here too, Nintendo could have a strategic influence so that money is saved for the purchase if the console comes onto the market in the first quarter of 2025.
If Nintendo introduces the console in the coming months, it should cause quite a stir. Because one thing is clear: the Japanese will not want to take on Sony or Microsoft directly, but will once again focus on innovation. Above all, the combination with the announced backwards compatibility is strong, because recent top releases for the Nintendo Switch can then automatically become driving forces for the Nintendo Switch 2.
