A report claiming Nintendo Switch 2 will now launch in Q1 2025 is spreading online.
Brazilian games journalist Pedro Henrique Lutti Lippe has stated Nintendo is now looking to release its next console in early 2025, though still within the 2024 financial year. The report is based on development sources now targeting that quarter for launch.
Eurogamer has heard similar whispers of an early 2025 launch from industry sources this week, though has not been able to concretely substantiate them. Nintendo Switch 2 had previously been widely tipped to arrive later this year. A move to the other side of Christmas into early 2025 would mean more time for the console’s launch line-up to be readied, while keeping the financial benefit of Switch 2’s launch within Nintendo’s upcoming financial calendar.
