On Wednesday, April 2, Nintendo is set to reveal the highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 console. But what can we expect from this announcement?
Earlier this year, Nintendo gave us a sneak peek of the device and a quick look at a new Mario Kart game running on it. However, details have been scarce until now. The upcoming Nintendo Direct livestream on April 2 at 9 a.m. ET promises to shed more light on what’s to come.
Anticipated Reveals
Tune in to Nintendo’s YouTube channel for the Nintendo Direct stream. Here’s what we are hoping to see:
Release Info and Pricing
One thing we can expect for sure from the stream is information about the launch date and price of the Switch 2. Reports suggest a June release with initial first-party games. As for the price, speculations point to at least $400, but we’ll have to wait for the official announcement for confirmation.
Hardware Upgrades
The Switch 2 is rumored to be larger and more powerful than its predecessor, possibly on par with a PlayStation 4 Pro or a Steam Deck. It may also feature innovative new controllers and console-level operating systems. The inclusion of a “C” button on the Joy-Con controllers has piqued curiosity among fans.
Launch Titles
The highlight of the event is expected to be the unveiling of new games for the Switch 2. While a new Mario Kart game is confirmed, details are scarce. Speculations also suggest the possibility of a new Metroid Prime 4 and a 3D Mario game. Other surprises could include revivals of classic series like Star Fox or F-Zero.
With so much excitement surrounding the Nintendo Switch 2 reveal, fans can’t wait for Wednesday morning to arrive.
