The much-anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 is set to be revealed soon. Although we’ve been featuring a similar sentence in our news for some time, and we’re aware that Nintendo has nearly finished getting ready for the eagerly awaited handheld device, we previously lacked a specific release date. However, that has changed. A Japanese video game developer has hinted at a potential release date window for the Nintendo Switch 2. Here are the details…

Level-5 Teases Nintendo Switch 2 Launch Window

Firstly, it’s important to note that an official release date for the Nintendo Switch 2 hasn’t been announced. The Japanese developer has been effective in maintaining secrecy among both employees and business partners. Nevertheless, as Nintendo has experienced, keeping information under wraps on the internet is quite challenging. A while ago, a game studio called Level-5 started developing a Switch game titled “Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time.”

Originally planned for a 2023 release, the game has been postponed to 2024 to ensure a “higher quality” gaming experience and “strategic reasons”. Instead of providing an exact date, Level-5 has opted to mention “summer” as the release timeframe for the new Fantasy Life game. The crucial aspect here is “strategic reasons.” Given Level-5’s longstanding partnership with Nintendo, gamers speculating from this connection believe that the developer is aware of the console’s summer release and intends to launch both the Nintendo Switch 2 and Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time simultaneously to enhance game sales.

Certainly, all of this goes beyond mere speculation. Unfortunately, the increasing number of leaks surrounding the release date of Nintendo Switch 2 only deepens the mystery. People eagerly anticipating the successor to the successful handheld from 2017 are enthusiastically examining every available clue.
