Switch 2 was officially revealed earlier this month, but its release date and price remain a mystery. However, that hasn’t

The original Switch came out in March of 2017 with a $299 price tag. Leaks and rumors suggest the Switch 2 could release in June of 2025. The price will likely fall somewhere between $399 and $499 USD.

The Switch 2 is unlikely to be priced any lower than $349, the current cost of an OLED Switch model. $399 seems like a safe bet — the same price as the base Steam Deck. Any more than this and Nintendo will face uncomfortable comparisons to the new wave of PC handhelds.

The original Switch launched at €329.99 in Europe. With inflation that's the equivalent of €422.15. So, if Games and Movies is correct, the Nintendo Switch 2 will be cheaper than its predecessor – and considerably cheaper than rivals, like the Xbox Series X and PS5.

The Nintendo Switch 2 release date may be a mystery until the upcoming Direct on April 2, but it looks like a fresh leak may have revealed new information about the console's price. The bad news is that the Nintendo Switch 2 will almost certainly cost more than the original Switch at launch.
