The future of Nintendo: Switch 2
The Switch 2 de Nintendothe subject of many rumors, remains one of the worst kept secrets in the video game industry. Although the company has not yet made the existence of this console official, a new clue suggests that it will not be released until summer 2025.
A release planned for summer 2025
The leak comes from Nintenduo, which is releasing the console in June or July. The source remains vague, citing only “members of at least six development studios working on titles for the Switch successor”. Given the lack of precision, this information should be taken with caution. However, this timeline seems logical. If Nintendo has not yet announced the console, it is plausible that it wants to leave a few months between announcement and release, making summer 2025 plausible.
A price estimated between 400 and 500€
In the same report, Nintenduo puts forward a price of between €400 and €500 for the Switch 2. This information is not corroborated by another source and should therefore be considered speculation. If this estimate proves correct, the Switch 2 could cost between $419 and $524 in the United States. These prices don't seem unreasonable, considering rumors that this is the most expensive console Nintendo has ever produced.
Switch 2 accessories already on sale?
Finally, VideoGamesChronicle spotted various accessories attributed to the Switch 2 on Alibaba. These products, coming from Chinese manufacturers, could give us an idea of the size of the future console. For example, a case measuring 1.9 x 5.9in x 11.6in suggests a certain dimension of the Switch 2. As always, this information should be considered with some caution.
