We're still waiting for Nintendo to share more details about its launch plans for the Switch 2. However, analysts are already laying the groundwork for what to expect. Based on the latest reports, the Switch 2 will be landing this summer, with a price tag in the $400 range. 

According to industry analysts speaking with IGN and Bloomberg, the Switch 2 is expected to launch with a $399 price tag. This estimate is based on supply chain costs, combined with current market conditions.

Assuming the price does end up being $399, gamers would need to spend extra accruing some new titles. Nintendo has not yet revealed the launch line-up of games, but we expect to see a number of hits from the original Switch console getting graphics/performance updates to take advantage of the more powerful Switch 2 hardware.

In terms of new games, a new Mario Kart game is anticipated, alongside a new 3D Mario game, Pokémon Legends Z-A, Metroid Prime 4 and perhaps a new RPG from Monolith.
