A purported Nintendo Switch 2 logo has surfaced online, potentially confirming the console's official name. Rumors and leaks surrounding Nintendo's next-generation console have been circulating since early 2024, when President Shuntaro Furukawa acknowledged its existence. A pre-March 2025 unveiling is anticipated, with a launch expected later this year.
The timing of the console's release has been a topic of much speculation since Furukawa's May 2024 announcement, but Nintendo has remained largely silent. While the name "Nintendo Switch 2" isn't officially confirmed, most leaks point towards it. Given the anticipated similar design to the original Switch, a direct sequel naming convention seems plausible.
Comicbook reports a logo leak shared on Bluesky by Necro Felipe of Universo Nintendo. The logo closely resembles the original Switch logo, featuring stylized Joy-Cons above the "Nintendo Switch" text. The key difference is the addition of a "2" next to the Joy-Cons, seemingly validating the widely used "Nintendo Switch 2" moniker.
Is it Really the Switch 2?
Verification of the logo's authenticity is pending, and some remain skeptical about the "Nintendo Switch 2" name. Nintendo's history includes consoles with significantly different names from their predecessors (e.g., Wii U), leading some to believe they might opt for a less predictable approach. The Wii U's unconventional name is speculated to have negatively impacted sales, possibly prompting a more straightforward naming strategy for the Switch successor.
Previous leaks appear to support Felipe's leaked logo and name, but gamers should treat all current rumors as unconfirmed until official announcements. Recent social media activity hints at a potentially imminent reveal of the highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2.
