With the Nintendo Switch nearing its eighth anniversary, speculation about its successor, often referred to as the “Switch 2,” continues to grow.
A trusted source on gaming forums, “Matt,” has hinted that the new system will be “very capable” of running major AAA titles, surprising many fans.
While Nintendo has yet to reveal official specs, reports suggest that both Nintendo and third-party developers are optimistic about the console’s potential.
This could mean games previously unavailable on the original Switch, such as Final Fantasy VII Remake and Elden Ring, may find a home on the new platform.
Nintendo has historically focused on affordability over raw power, and while the Switch 2 likely won’t match the PS5 Pro, developers appear pleased with its direction.
A full reveal is expected before March 2025, with speculation pointing to an announcement event in early 2025.
Fans are eagerly awaiting confirmation of third-party support, with hopes for titles from Square Enix, Capcom, and Bandai Namco.
Until then, rumors continue to fuel excitement for what could be a significant leap for Nintendoโs next-generation console.
