Switch 2 Release Date Rumor Has Every Nintendo Fan Locked in for a December Reveal

As the end of the year is approaching, the speculation surrounding Nintendo Switch 2 is at an all-time high. Adding fuel to the ***** is the recent rumor suggesting that new details about the next-gen console could be revealed as soon as December, with the handheld potentially launching in the first quarter of 2025.

The official statements from Nintendo’s President suggested that more details about the Switch successor might not be revealed until the end of the current fiscal year. However, the recent rumor (originating from a business email about an upcoming game) has certainly placed doubt in gamers’ minds on previous assumptions about the Switch 2’s launch timeline.

The Business Email That’s Fueling Switch 2 Rumors

According to streamer Stephen Georg, a business email he received recently about an upcoming game may have unintentionally revealed the potential launch window for Nintendo’s highly anticipated next-gen console. While it didn’t exactly mention the name of Switch, it did write Switch(es).

Georg shared the details of the email with his audience, noting that the upcoming game is set to launch early in 2025 on PC (via Steam), Xbox One & Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and, crucially, Nintendo Switch(es). After seeing the details of the email, the community was buzzing with speculation and discussion about what this means.

While some fans argue that this just refers to the original Switch, others are taking the speculation a step further, saying that game studios are likely aware of next-gen hardware. As a result, many believe the business email could be legitimate, and that there may be an official announcement at an upcoming event like The Game Awards.

Just got an email about an upcoming game that includes this line:

“rolling out Q1 2025 on PC (Steam), Xbox One & Series X|S, PlayStation 5 and…Nintendo Switch(es)!”

That Switch 2 is right around the corner, man. Very curious when Nintendo will tell us about it.

The entire comment section is filled with speculations about the upcoming hybrid console. While many want to believe this rumor to become true, others are saying that Nintendo will just keep stalling more and slowly reveal details about the console.

Why the December Reveal Rumors Are Somewhat Believable

First of all, it’s important to remember that this is all speculative at this point. Various leaks, rumors, and even the email Georg received should all be taken with a grain of Salt. Despite many knowing this, this rumor has certainly sparked a flurry of discussion in the community.

If the fans remember correctly, the original Switch was also revealed in a similar fashion. Nintendo first teased the hybrid console around October 2016 and announced that more details would be revealed next year.

But surprising everyone, the company dropped additional information just a couple of months later in December, when President Reggie Fils-Aimé

on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.

This is a similar case. While the company has officially stated that more details will be revealed before 31st March 2025, leaving plenty of room for speculation. This could mean an announcement tomorrow or almost at the end of the day on 31st March (anything is possible).

Additionally, a big industry event like The Game Awards is coming, where companies often make major announcements. So there is a possibility that Nintendo might reveal more details about the successor to the original Switch at the event (maybe with a trailer).

In the end, until we hear something from official sources, it’s wise to take all rumors with a healthy dose of skepticism. But the idea that Switch 2 could be revealed as soon as December 2024 is certainly tantalizing, to say the least.
