The successor to the Nintendo Switch<\/a> will be revealed this week, an industry insider has claimed. Rumours and leaks about the Nintendo Switch 2 have intensified ahead of launch, with several sources claiming an official announcement on the hybrid console could be right around the corner. Nintendo<\/a> is said to be ready to unveil the Switch 2 as soon as January 16.<\/p>\n

Nintendo Switch 2 Reveal Imminent<\/h2>\n

The information comes from tipster Nate the Hate, known for industry scoops and accurate predictions about launches. In the latest edition of his podcast<\/a> Monday, he claimed he had been told the Nintendo Switch 2<\/a> would be revealed on Thursday, January 16.<\/p>\n

He also shared a few details about the possible reveal event, claiming he had partial knowledge of what one could expect from Nintendo. \u201cWhat I’ve heard is that the reveal itself is going to focus almost exclusively on the console itself,\u201d the tipster said. \u201cThere is not going to be any presence of games.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nate the Hate’s claims were backed by other publications, as well. The Verge’s Tom Warren said on X Monday that the Switch 2 would be revealed this week. A Eurogamer report<\/a>, too, claimed that industry sources had pointed to a January 16 reveal for Nintendo’s next console.<\/p>\n

Nintendo Switch 2 Leaks<\/h2>\n

The string of leaks \u2014 many of which have shed light on the expected design<\/a> of the Switch 2, while some have shared its specifications and capabilities \u2014 in recent weeks suggest that Nintendo might be close to finally taking the covers off the successor to the phenomenally successful Switch.<\/p>\n

In fact, at CES<\/a> last week, Genki, a third-party peripheral maker, presented a mockup of the Nintendo Switch 2. Nintendo, meanwhile, has remained tightlipped amid the leaks, and has even sought to clamp down on them. In a statement to CNET<\/a>\u00a0last week, the company said the Genki mockup of the Switch 2 shown at CES was \u201cunofficial\u201d and was not provided to the seller by Nintendo.<\/p>\n

On its part, Nintendo has only confirmed two things: first, that the successor to the Nintendo Switch will be announced<\/a> before the end of March 2025; and second, the console will be backwards compatible<\/a> with Nintendo Switch games.<\/p>\n

Over the past few months, however, Switch 2 leaks have pointed towards design and hardware upgrades \u2014 magnetic Joy Cons with hall-effect joysticks, a more powerful dock<\/a>, larger display and more. A report<\/a> last month claimed the Switch 2 would be launched on March 28.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
