- A major gaming hardware manufacturer and publisher predicted the Nintendo Switch 2 launch window
- Nacon suggests it will be between April and September 2025
- Nintendo confirmed that the console would arrive this year, but provided no further information on its release.
Major gaming hardware manufacturer and publisher Nacon has predicted that the Nintendo Switch 2 could launch as early as April.
In its latest quarterly report, Nacon said it expects a successful first half of the 2025/26 financial year, which runs from April to September 2025, thanks to “several positive factors”.
This not only includes the launch of several delayed hardware products in addition to a release schedule pack with ten new games, but also the early arrival of the Nintendo Switch 2.
The company says it “already has compatible games and a full line of accessories,” presumably referring to the Nintendo Switch 2’s confirmed software backwards compatibility.
The upcoming console was revealed by Nintendo on January 16 in a short trailer. This will be followed by a Nintendo Direct focused on the Nintendo Switch 2 on April 2, where we’ll likely learn more about the console’s hardware features and software lineup.
We know Nintendo is aiming for a 2025 release, but the company has yet to provide a concrete timeline. We’ll have to wait and see if Nacon’s prediction holds up.
