It's now official, after long months of rumors, leaks and fakes around the next Nintendo console, we are now certain. The Switch 2 will arrive in 2025 (without further details at the moment) and should offer many games at its launch and in its first months of marketing. As always with Nintendo, the Japanese firm is planning a solid launch year for its console with many games to come, knowing that in addition to that, this Switch 2 is backwards compatible with almost all games of the first Switch of 2017.
Discover now our detailed article on all the games that are planned to arrive on the machine upon its release and during the first weeks and months of marketing.
