Nintendo has made it official: their much-anticipated Nintendo Direct featuring the Nintendo Switch 2 is going live tomorrow, on Wednesday, April 2, 2025. Expect a full hour of insights and excitement.
You can catch the live stream at 6 am PT, 9 am ET, 2 pm BST, or 3 pm CEST, depending on where you’re tuning in from.
Just last month, Nintendo finally pulled back the curtain on the Nintendo Switch 2, putting an end to the whirlwind of rumors and leaks swirling around what would follow their portable home console.
The initial reveal wasn’t just a peek at the console’s sleek design. Gamers got a tantalizing hint at a new Mario Kart installment and were reassured that the system maintains backward compatibility with its predecessor.
Nintendo has clarified that the Switch 2 will support both physical and digital games from the original Switch. Yet, it comes with a disclaimer: some older titles might not be supported, or they might not function as smoothly on the new hardware.
While the Nintendo Switch 2 is slated for a global release in 2025, we still don’t have the exact launch date. But fans everywhere are keeping their calendars clear, eagerly awaiting the next chapter in Nintendo’s gaming legacy.
