A recent rumor suggests that the Nintendo Switch 2 may be released on May 15th, two weeks before the upcoming April 2 Nintendo Direct event. This would make it a Spring release, potentially coinciding with other major launches such as Doom: The Dark Ages and a new Mario Kart set.
Theories behind the possible launch date include a survey of big game releases around that time, a gaming experience event taking place in May, and a partnership between LEGO and Nintendo. Additionally, the opening of a new flagship store in San Francisco on May 15th is seen as a marketing strategy for the console’s release.
Some experts believe this logic is sound, but note that the LEGO partnership may be less convincing. They also point out that Nintendo often releases major titles in the Spring, such as last year’s Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. A light release schedule in May could hint at a console launch.
While the exact release date remains unconfirmed, this rumor provides an interesting perspective on what to expect from Nintendo in the coming months.
