We've finally seen the Nintendo Switch 2, but there's plenty we still don't know here's everything we do, including the latest leaks for the console's price, game lineup, and that all-important release dateTech11:20, 25 Feb 2025This is the Switch 2Nintendo finally revealed the Nintendo Switch 2 in January, but didn't give us a great deal to go on. We know it'll be a hybrid system again, with a dock, and that the controllers will be magnetic now.We've also heard that they'll fix the major issue of Joy-Con drift that plagued the first console, and it's reportedly significantly more powerful than its predecessor, too, but we've been piecing together all the leaks to work out when we'll be playing it, what we'll be playing on it, and how much it'll cost.With Nintendo promising we'll get a Switch 2 Nintendo Direct on April 2, we still have just over a month to wait, so we've rounded up all we know about the Switch 2 so far, including leaks and rumours, to help you stay informed about the follow-up to one of gaming's most successful consoles.Starting with what we do know, the Switch 2 will follow the template from the first console. It's a hybrid system that can be a handheld or docked to become a home console, and the controllers are detachable again only this time, they're magnetic.Joy-Con will be magnetic nowA patent suggests that the new controllers can be used as mice, too, lining up with what we saw in the trailer, and they can be attached upside down. Given there's a new USB-C port on the top, we're wondering if this will mean some wild peripherals that can be attached.The screen is larger than the first console's, but we're not sure if it'll have an OLED panel yet (but leaks have suggested it might). Here's hoping, though after the Switch OLED Edition it'd be tough to go back to LCD.We've heard plenty of dates thrown around, with some expecting Nintendo to drop the console immediately after the Nintendo Direct on April 2 which seems foolhardy.Earlier this week, one former Nintendo employee suggested the console will target a June launch.Theyre going to want the system to be out before the end of the summer. I would say at the start of the summer, at the end of the school year, so you have kids talking about what theyre excited for, they said.As for pricing, it seems likely the system will cost more than its predecessor, but less than PS5 or Xbox Series X. The most common price mentioned is $400, which at the current exchange rate is 317 expect it to be more like 400.The Switch 2 could output 4K while it's dockedWe loved the Switch 1, but toward the latter end of its life cycle it became a haven for indies while we played our 'big' games on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.We've heard that the system will mark a sizeable power jump, and while reports it'll match PS4 Pro levels of power feel a little optimistic, one rumour suggests the Switch 2 will be more powerful than the Steam Deck. Given Valve's console can run the likes of Cyberpunk 2077 and Elden Ring, that's no mean feat.We've also heard it'll output 4K visuals using AI upscaling, meaning games can still fit on its relatively small cartridges. We've got a full explainer of the technology here.The CPU is also expected to have more headroom, and we expect there to be more RAM, too.This is what the Switch 2 will look likeWe've already heard that one AAA third-party game could be making the jump, while other reports suggest Assassin's Creed: Mirage, Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater Delta could come to Switch 2.We're expecting Microsoft of all companies to be a big supporter of the Switch 2. Flight Sim has been tipped for a release, as well as DOOM: The Dark Ages.It'll be backward compatible with your existing Switch library, while Take-Two and EA have already thrown their weight behind the Switch 2, meaning we could be inching closer to full ports of the likes of NBA 2K and EA FC that are closer to their PlayStation and Xbox counterparts.Aside from older games and third-party ports, we know there will be Switch 2 exclusives you won't be able to play anywhere else. Expect the usual heavy-hitters like Zelda, Mario, Pokemon and more.Article continues belowIn the initial reveal, Nintendo showcased a new Mario Kart, so there's a good chance we'll see that during the console's full reveal.For the latest breaking news and stories from across the globe from the Daily Star, sign up for our newsletters.
