A potential leak of the Nintendo Switch 2 logo might have just surfaced online, seemingly confirming the console's official name. The upcoming Nintendo Switch successor has been shrouded in speculation since President Shuntaro Furukawa acknowledged its existence earlier in 2024. While a full unveiling is anticipated before March 2025, with a launch later this year, the exact timing and even the name remain unconfirmed by Nintendo.
While the "Nintendo Switch 2" moniker is widely speculated, Nintendo's history of naming consoles (e.g., the Wii U) suggests a less predictable approach is possible. However, the leaked logo, reported by Comicbook and shared on Bluesky by Universo Nintendo's Necro Felipe, closely resembles the original Switch logo, featuring the stylized Joy-Con controllers above "Nintendo Switch," with the only addition being a "2" next to the Joy-Cons.
This logo's similarity to the original lends credence to the "Nintendo Switch 2" name, but official confirmation is still pending. The possibility of a name change, mirroring the less successful Wii U, remains. Previous leaks seem to align with this logo and name, but gamers should treat all current information as unsubstantiated until an official announcement. Recent social media activity hints at a potentially earlier-than-expected reveal.
