Nintendo's Switch 2 Set to Fly Off Shelves This June, Analysts Say

Anticipation for the Nintendo Switch 2 is at an all-time high as analysts predict a strong launch for the next-gen console set to release in June 2025. Expected to retail around $400, the Switch 2 is anticipated to have a robust line-up of first-party titles, including a new Mario Kart, a 3D Mario game, and Pokémon Legends: Z-A. Notable third-party support is also anticipated, with titles like Call of Duty and Hollow Knight: Silksong rumored for the platform. Despite concerns about potential tariffs affecting pricing, analysts believe the diversified manufacturing strategy in Vietnam will mitigate these risks.

The Nintendo Switch 2 is expected to launch with a variety of highly anticipated titles, including new iterations of major franchises as well as significant third-party games. The console will also feature innovative Joy-Con mechanics and backwards compatibility with existing Switch games.

The Nintendo Switch was released in 2017 and quickly became one of the best-selling consoles in history, praised for its versatility as a home console and portable system. The upcoming Switch 2 aims to build on that success, incorporating newer technologies and gameplay features to enhance player experience and expand its library of games.
