Nintendo reportedly has a three phase launch plan for its Switch 2 games.
According to Insider Gaming, the first phase will see primarily first party games released on the console’s launch, which is believed to be June. This console launch date ties in with what both analysts and a former Nintendo employee predicted would be the case.
The second phase of Nintendo’s game launch plan is then reportedly set for around October-November, and will have a greater focus on third-party studios. Sources said these studios are expecting to get their hands on a Switch 2 dev kit in June. The third and final phase will tie in with the holiday period, Insider Gaming reports.
Thankfully, there isn’t too much longer to go until we hear something more concrete on Nintendo’s Switch successor. A dedicated Nintendo Direct focused on the Switch 2 will take place on 2nd April, where we’ll presumably hear about the release date and price. And, just maybe, we will hear about more games coming to the console, so don’t get your hopes up, but Metroid Prime 4? Ooh, what about Silksong?! We surely must be getting an update on that soon…
Anyway, in the meantime while we wait for more, here’s everything we know about Switch 2 so far.
