Nacon has disclosed that the Nintendo Switch 2 is expected to launch in the first half of the fiscal year 2026. This means the highly anticipated hybrid console could hit the market sometime between April and September 2025. The information comes from an analyst who had access to Nacon’s financial forecast report.
The company, known for its game development and accessory production, predicts strong business performance in the first half of fiscal year 2026. This optimism is tied to several factors, including the launch of the Nintendo Switch 2. Nacon’s documents indicate they already have several compatible games and a full range of accessories lined up for the console’s release.
Given Nacon’s long-standing relationship with Nintendo and its reputation as a significant industry player, it’s likely that the company has insight into the console’s release plans. This isn’t just a leak—it appears to be strategic business information closely tied to both companies’ operations.
While the release window for the Switch 2 has been hinted at, Nacon hasn’t yet revealed which titles it will bring to the console. In recent years, the company has developed games like Robocop: Rogue City, Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown, and Steelrising. It’s possible that these or other games in their portfolio could see new versions optimized for Nintendo’s next-generation console.
The Nintendo Switch 2 arrives in 2025
While Nacon may have access to insider information, it’s worth noting that Nintendo has neither confirmed nor denied this release window. More details are expected to be revealed during the Nintendo Direct scheduled for April 2, 2025, which will serve as the official platform to showcase everything about the new hybrid console.
The Nintendo Switch 2 was unveiled last Thursday (16), giving fans their first look at the console, which is set to launch in 2025. Although details remain scarce, Nintendo did reveal the device’s updated screen and new Joy-Con controllers. They also showcased the next installment in the Mario Kart franchise, rumored to be a launch title.
Ahead of its official release, fans can test the new console at select locations worldwide. However, it remains unclear if this trial phase will extend to Brazil, despite Nintendo’s official presence there.
