Nintendo Switch 2 tipped for March 28, 2025 launch

We now have more details on the Nintendo Switch 2's launch window, with the latest details directly hinting at a specific date for the next console's introduction. The latest details point to March 28, 2025, to be the date when the device would hit market shelves. This revelation stays consistent with the previous confirmation from the Japanese home video game console maker to launch their next-generation product by the end of the current fiscal year, which gets over on March 31, 2025.

These latest leaks come from an exclusive article published by the Italian tech website UAGNA. The site is well-known among enthusiasts who speak the language and has released details about upcoming hardware in the past that ended up materializing. However, Sportskeeda wasn't independently able to verify the latest leak since Nintendo has kept its lips shut about any details on the Switch 2.

When will the Nintendo Switch 2 be revealed?

Multiple leaks have pointed out that the upcoming gaming handheld could be shown to the public in early January. Last week, we had a rumor hinting at the date to be January 8, 2025. The console would likely be part of Nintendo's CES launches, where it could take center stage.

On a side note, the Switch 2 has also bene projected by experts to sell a whopping 15-17 million units in its debut year. There are expectations that the unique position of the device would mean Sony's PlayStation and the Microsoft Xbox have little to compete against.

For now, leaks suggest a more capable device that, according to tipsters would be capable of handling "modern AAA games." Besides, gamers might also be treated with magnetic joycons and a revamped ergonomic design. Despite these leaks being perfectly sensible, we urge players to take them with a grain of salt. This is particularly because we have no information from the official manufacturers.
