Industry leader Nate Drake said in a new forum post on Reset Era that he is “confident it [Switch Pro] gets announced this year.” He also added that “hope remains for a 2021 launch,” but if there is any sort of delay until 2022, this should be announced within the next few months.

The Nintendo Switch Pro is expected to come with the company’s resolution upgrade tool called DLSS and support for 4K functionality. It is also believed to have an improved portal mode and should have a few other meaningful upgrades.
