Nintendo has said it will finally announce its Switch successor console “within this fiscal year”, so at some point before March 31, 2025.
In a statement published to X / Twitter, Shuntaro Furukawa, President of Nintendo, confirmed the new console as Nintendo published its financial report for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024. Furukawa also confirmed a Nintendo Direct for this June, but said there will be no mention of the Switch successor during that presentation. Instead, it will focus on Switch games for the latter half of 2024.
The wording suggests fans will have to wait until at least July for a first glimpse at Nintendo’s next-gen console, dubbed Switch 2 by many. Here’s Furukawa’s statement in full:
In February, reports indicated the Switch 2 was delayed until the early months of 2025. As reported by Bloomberg, VGC, and Eurogamer, sources claimed Nintendo had told publishers the Switch 2 was originally planned to be released at the end of 2024 but was now expected to slip to "March 2025 at the earliest."
"We will make an announcement about the successor to Nintendo Switch within this fiscal year.
Recent alleged details on the power of the Switch 2 weren't the first rumors to spread about Nintendo’s new console. Other allegedly leaked details have suggested that the device will feature magnetic versions of the Joy-Cons and maybe even let players use their old controllers, too. If these recent rumors are to be believed, you’ll also be able to enjoy your physical and digital games on the Switch 2.
For more on what may eventually become the Switch 2, you can read everything else we know about the company’s next console.
