Nintendo Switch 2 Release Date Potentially Leaked (And It’s Very Close)

As an experienced gamer with a decade-long journey through the realm of Nintendo, I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and skepticism upon hearing about this potential leak regarding the Nintendo Switch 2. The gaming world is abuzz with anticipation for the next iteration of my favorite handheld console, and the possibility of it being unveiled as early as Q1 2025 has sent ripples of exhilaration through the community.


A potential leak suggests that the Nintendo Switch 2 might make its debut in the year 2024. The past twelve months have been filled with speculation after speculation about Nintendo’s next console, with Nintendo only confirming that it will be a successor to the current Nintendo Switch and capable of playing games from the existing Switch library as well. However, they haven’t disclosed any specific release or reveal dates yet. While these rumors have been circulating for quite some time, this latest leak provides more substantial evidence than just another typical Nintendo Switch 2 speculation.

On social media platform X, previously known as Twitter, YouTuber and Twitch streamer Stephen Georg disclosed that he recently got an email stating the following: “Launching in Q1 2025 on PC (Steam), Xbox One, Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch(es)!

It’s clear that hints point toward a potential launch of the Nintendo Switch 2 within the first quarter of 2025. This timeframe encompasses any date from January 1st to March 31st.

If this information is accurate, then we can expect the announcement of the Nintendo Switch 2 to happen quite soon. Given this, it should be unveiled before the year ends, with a strong possibility of being showcased at The Game Awards 2024 on December 12, or perhaps in a separate event held prior to that date. Announcing it after December 12 might be too close to the holiday season when both Nintendo and the gaming industry would typically take a break.

There’s a chance Georg might be fabricating this information, and it seems unusual for him to jeopardize his reputation over it. However, it could also be that the sender of the email is merely guessing. Remember, announcing a game for the rumored Nintendo Switch 2 doesn’t necessarily mean knowing when Nintendo will officially launch the console.

Regarding Nintendo, they’ve remained silent on the matter of this alleged leak, likely due to their usual policy of refraining from commenting on leaks or rumors. However, should they decide to break their silence, we will promptly update the story accordingly.
