The next evolution is here. Let’s play.
Nintendo Switch 2 brings your favourite games to life with sharper visuals, smoother motion, and more ways to play. The vibrant 7.9-inch Full HD display supports up to 120 fps and HDR, delivering crisp detail and colour in handheld or tabletop mode. Dock it to a compatible TV and enjoy up to 4K resolution with Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) for an even smoother experience.*
Joy-Con™ 2 – Snap. Play. Repeat.
The all-new Joy-Con 2 controllers are built for comfort and flexibility. They attach magnetically with a satisfying click, and detach just as easily with a press of a button. The sticks and buttons are larger and smoother, giving you more control and better grip.
Joy-Con 2 also introduces mouse sensors on the bottom of each controller—just place them on a flat surface and glide. It’s a new way to play in supported games. Plus, HD Rumble 2 delivers more precise feedback, from subtle vibrations to powerful jolts.
GameChat – Just press the C Button.
Stay connected with friends no matter where you are. GameChat lets you voice chat, share your screen, or jump into video calls—all without stopping your game.
Press the new C Button on the right Joy-Con 2 to instantly start chatting.
The built-in microphone uses noise cancellation to keep your voice clear. Want to make it face-to-face? Plug in a compatible USB-C® camera and enjoy video calls with up to four friends at once. GameChat works in handheld, TV, and tabletop modes—because your crew should always be just one button away.
Play Your Way – Three modes. Total freedom.
Nintendo Switch 2 is made for any play style. In TV mode, connect to a 4K-compatible screen with the new dock and let the built-in fan keep things cool.
In tabletop mode, use the wider, adjustable stand to find your perfect angle—up to 150 degrees of freedom. You can even charge while playing thanks to the new top USB-C® port.
And in handheld mode, take everything with you. The bigger screen is still just as slim, giving you the power of a console in your hands.
Power, Sound & Storage – Better in every way.
With upgraded performance, Nintendo Switch 2 runs smoother, loads faster, and looks sharper than ever. Built-in 256 GB storage gives you plenty of space for games, saves, and downloads—plus faster read/write speeds.
Need more room? Expand with microSD Express, a new standard for high-speed memory cards.*
Audio also gets a major upgrade. Whether you’re using speakers or headphones, you’ll enjoy clearer, richer sound with support for Spatial 3D audio.
Your Games, Your Way – Old favourites. New adventures.
Nintendo Switch 2 plays exclusive new titles like Mario Kart™ World—and it also supports many Nintendo Switch games, both physical and digital.
Some older titles may not be fully compatible, so be sure to check before playing. And if you’re a Nintendo Switch Online member, you can keep using your membership on the new system without missing a beat.
Nintendo Switch 2 is everything you loved about the original—smarter, smoother, and more connected. Whether you’re a longtime fan or just getting started, it’s time to play your way.
