Nintendo Switch 2 Could Launch in June, Announcement Expected in April Direct, Former Employee Suggests

Nintendo likely wants the console before the end of summer, so he believes that it is safe to say that mid-to-late June is the most probable window. If the system were to be delayed past this timeframe, he imagines it would be to make final tweaks or because of an issue that no one saw coming. He also predicts the Nintendo Switch 2 will have a $400 price point, which is aligned with what analysts have been forecasting. Pricing the console at this level would underscore its enhancements while being within reach of the brand’s more mainstream buyers.

Nintendo has yet to announce any finalized specs, but leaked information as well as industry consensus suggest an impressive hardware bump relative to the original Switch. Perhaps most significantly, developers are said to be excited to leverage a more powerful CPU. The upgraded processor could help fix one of the major performance complaints about the original system, which struggled to run demanding games.

The Nintendo Switch 2 is expected to feature better graphical capabilities and enhanced battery life.  Speculation regarding its display and storage capacity has yet to be confirmed, but its launch is expected to include an OLED model. Nintendo may also offer new Joy-Con controllers with updated designs and more resistance to wear. Its release date is still unconfirmed, but we can expect to hear official details in the April 2nd Nintendo Direct. So naturally, fans are riding high on speculation and anticipation about the potential new system that could singlehandedly revolutionize handheld and hybrid gaming yet again.
