Nintendo Switch 2 release now delayed to early 2025 – Nintendo

Switch 2 launch rumors continue to circulate, but with one major change.

Initially, they talked about a release in the fall of 2024, targeting the holiday season. However, the latest information is from sources who spoke to the site VGC Nintendo has reportedly informed publishers to expect the console to debut in the first quarter of 2025.

The change in plans was also confirmed by his reports Bloomberg While Eurogamer has hinted at something similar, with data pointing to an early release window in 2025. This timeline would reflect the March 2017 debut of the original Switch, with developers – according to two people who spoke to VGC – already working on titles for Switch 2.

The revised schedule could benefit game makers, allowing additional development time for major titles such as Metroid Prime 4, which was announced in 2017, with the company moving to resume development in 2019, with no further updates for five years.

Polygon speculates that Nintendo may “reserve” Metroid Prime 4 for the launch of the new console. The Switch 2 release is highly anticipated, following the record sales of its predecessor, which outsold both Sony and Microsoft's offerings in the console market, something many seem to forget.
