Nintendo Switch 2 Officially Announced Direct Coming in April

Nintendo Switch 2 Features

The Nintendo Switch 2 retains a similar design to its predecessor, with the same tablet-plus-Joy-Con concept. Key differences include:

  • Two USB-C ports: one on the bottom for docking, and another on top for charging.
  • Joy-Cons slide into the side of the tablet and are secured with magnets and released with a lever on the back, making docking and undocking easier.
  • Backwards compatibility with Nintendo Switch games.

The Nintendo Switch 2 is set to release in 2025, but a specific date has not yet been revealed.

The reveal trailer featured a glimpse of a Mario Kart game, which looks visually similar to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe but includes what appears to be a brand new map. Further details on the games will be available in the upcoming Nintendo Direct.

Nintendo will be hosting a Nintendo Direct specifically for the Nintendo Switch 2 on April 2, 2025.
