The timing of Nintendo's new console is a major mystery in the gaming industry. The Japanese company has made no secret of the fact that the Nintendo Switch 2 will "come out soon", but has yet to provide any official information about the device other than the fact that it will be backwards compatible with games for the first Switch.

Here's What We Know

According to numerous rumours and leaks, it is believed that the console will be released before the end of Q1 2025 (by March 31).

According to the latest rumours posted on Chinese forum Weibo and gaming forum Famiboards, Nintendo Switch 2 will indeed be released in March 2025, with an official unveiling in January.

This data correlates with the opinion of analysts, who believe that until the end of 2024 gamers can not count on the presentation of Nintendo Switch 2, because the company will not divert the attention of customers with a new console on the eve of the winter holidays, because this is the season that traditionally falls on the maximum sales of games and devices.
