Nintendo Direct Drops Time for 'Switch 2' Reveal

Author : Patrick Feb 25,2025

Nintendo's Switch 2 Nintendo Direct is scheduled for Wednesday, April 2nd, 2025, at 6 am PT (9 am ET, 2 pm UK time). This presentation promises a more detailed look at the Switch 2, following its initial unveiling last month.

The initial reveal showcased the console's design, hinted at a potential Mario Kart 9 release, and teased a novel "mouse" mode for the new Joy-Cons. However, many questions remain, including the functionality of a mysterious new Joy-Con button, the console's processing power, and the intended use of its new ports.

The Direct is anticipated to unveil the complete Switch 2 launch game lineup and release date, expected between June and September 2025. Analysts predict a $400 price point, which hopefully Nintendo will confirm.

Speculation regarding Switch 2's game library is growing. A substantial list of rumored third-party titles is circulating, with Firaxis (developers of Civilization 7) expressing interest in the Joy-Con mouse mode. Nacon, a prominent video game publisher, has confirmed the readiness of its Switch 2 titles. Further fueling anticipation, Hollow Knight: Silksong is rumored for the platform, and EA has indicated that Madden, FIFA, and The Sims would be suitable additions.
