That&#8217;s an unusual time for a new console to be released, as most come out in the autumn or spring, but Nintendo has never really explained why it picked such an unusual date.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"price\">How much does the Switch 2 cost?<\/h2>\n<p>The Switch 2 is priced at \u00a3395.99. It comes with a dock for connecting the console to your TV, a pair of Joy-Con 2 controllers, two Joy-Con 2 straps, a Joy-Con 2 grip that lets you use the Joy-Con 2s like a traditional controller, an AC adapter, and an HDMI cable.<\/p>\n<p>There is also a bundle that includes a digital copy of <a href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/2025\/04\/03\/mario-kart-world-nintendo-switch-2s-best-game-hands-on-preview-22840585\/\">Mario Kart World<\/a> priced at \u00a3429.99, which means you\u2019re only spending \u00a334 on the game, instead of its usual asking price of \u00a366.99.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing, only the Switch 2 on its own is available from <a href=\"https:\/\/store.nintendo.co.uk\/en\/nintendo-switch-2-P00153\">Nintendo\u2019s own website<\/a>, with the Mario Kart bundle sold out. <a href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/2025\/05\/22\/nintendo-switch-2-uk-pre-orders-back-stock-buy-23223170\/\">Other retailers<\/a> have their own bundles as well, that are significantly more expensive but do come with additional games and\/or accessories.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"features\">What features does the Switch 2 have?<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"img-container shareable-item wp-caption\">\n<div class=\"img-wrap\">\n\t\t<img width=\"646\" height=\"363\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" class=\"article-image wp-image-23049070 lazyload\" alt=\"Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 side by side comparison\" loading=\"lazy\" data-src=\"https:\/\/hubpsotemail.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/SEI_250408324-686e.jpg\">\t<\/div><figcaption>The Switch 2 is larger than its sibling but just as thin (Nintendo)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Since the Switch 2 is primarily a more powerful version of the Switch 1, it retains most of the features of its predecessor, including the ability to play games on the go in handheld mode or on your TV at home.<\/p>\n<p>Tabletop mode is also back, allowing you to stand the Switch 2 on a table or desk, but the kickstand is much larger and sturdier, and can be angled in different ways.<\/p>\n<p>The Switch 2 is markedly bigger than the Switch 1, boasting a 7.9-inch screen, compared to the original\u2019s 6.2-inch screen. However, it is an LCD screen and not an OLED one like the <a href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/2021\/08\/02\/nintendo-switch-oled-hands-on-comparison-the-superior-switch-console-15022615\/\">Switch OLED model<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>That said, the Switch 2\u2019s improved specs means it can offer better visuals, including support for resolutions upwards of 1080p and even 4K, as well as frame rates upwards of 120 frames per second for select games (if playing in 4K, the frame rate is capped at 60 frames per second).<\/p>\n<p>It also has a larger internal storage. Whereas the original Switch has 32GB of storage space, the Switch 2 offers eight times that at 256GB &#8211; allowing it to store a lot more games at once. Plus, the Switch 2 is much faster at reading and writing data, so loading and saving games should go quicker than on Switch 1.<\/p>\n<p>The built-in speakers have also been improved to offer clearer audio when in handheld and tabletop mode. 3D audio is supported as well.<\/p>\n<div class=\"factbox\" data-ico=\"factbox_article\" data-track-module=\"factbox_article\">\n<h2 class=\"factbox-title\">\n\t\t\t\tNintendo Switch 2 specs\t\t\t<\/h2>\n<div class=\"factbox-content\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Size: Approximately 4.5 inches tall x 10.7 inches wide x 0.55 inches thick (with Joy-Con 2 controllers attached).<\/li>\n<li>Weight: Approximately 0.88lbs without Joy-Con 2 controllers attached, approximately 1.18lbs with Joy-Con 2 controllers attached.<\/li>\n<li>Screen: 7.9 inch LCD touch screen with 1920&#215;1080 resolution, HDR10 support, and VRR up to 120 Hz (VRR only supported in handheld mode).<\/li>\n<li>CPU\/GPU: Custom made processor by Nvidia, with DLSS and ray-tracing support.<\/li>\n<li>System memory: 256GB (can be increased with compatible microSD Express cards).<\/li>\n<li>Video output: Maximum 3840&#215;2160 (4K) resolution at 60 fps when docked.

features for the Switch 2, GameChat is what it says on the tin: something that allows you to communicate with friends online while playing games on Switch 2.<\/p>\n<p>GameChat is activated by pressing the &#8216;C&#8217; button on the right-hand Joy-Con 2 controller and up to 12 people can take part in a chat session. Up to four people can also share their game screen simultaneously and the Switch 2\u2019s built-in microphone is designed to adapt to your environment, filtering out any unwanted background noise.<\/p>\n<p>A separate GameShare feature also makes it possible to share certain games online or via a local wireless connection, so friends can enjoy multiplayer sessions without needing their own copy.<\/p>\n<p>Although only Switch 2 consoles can share games, it is possible to receive them with a Switch 1 console, although only locally since Switch 1 doesn\u2019t support GameChat.<\/p>\n<p>Nintendo is selling a separate camera accessory for \u00a349.99, which you can use for video chats and displaying your face in certain games. You plug it into the second USB-C port on the top of the console.<\/p>\n<p>While GameChat will be free for everyone to begin with, this is a limited time offer until March 31, 2026. After that, you will need to pay for a Nintendo Switch Online subscription to use GameChat.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Joy-Con-2\">What features do the Switch 2 Joy-Con 2 controllers have?<\/h2>\n<p>One of the big newsfeatures of the Joy-Con 2 controllers is that they magnetically attach to the Switch 2, meaning they\u2019ll be more firmly connected but still easy to detach by pushing a release button on their back.<\/p>\n<p>They also come with larger &#8216;SL&#8217; and &#8216;SR&#8217; buttons, which makes them more comfortable to use horizontally.<\/p>\n<p>Most importantly though, the Joy-Con 2s come with mouse controls, offering new ways to play certain games, such as first person shooters like Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, and allowing for more types of games to release on Switch 2.<\/p>\n<p>It will be possible to plug a regular USB mouse into the Switch 2 as well, as confirmed in <a
