A leaked image potentially reveals the Nintendo Switch 2 logo, seemingly confirming the console's name. Speculation surrounding Nintendo's next console has been rampant since President Shuntaro Furukawa confirmed its existence earlier in 2024. A pre-March 2025 unveiling is anticipated, with a launch later this year.

The timing of the new console's release has been a topic of much discussion since Furukawa's May 2024 announcement, but Nintendo has remained largely silent. While the name "Nintendo Switch 2" isn't officially confirmed, numerous leaks and rumors point towards it. Many believe the Switch 2 will retain a similar design to its predecessor, making a direct sequel branding logical.

Comicbook reports a leaked logo, shared on Bluesky by Universo Nintendo's Necro Felipe. The logo closely resembles the original Switch logo, featuring the stylized Joy-Con controllers above "Nintendo Switch," with the only significant difference being a "2" added beside the Joy-Cons. This strongly suggests "Nintendo Switch 2" is the official name.

Is it Really the Switch 2?

The logo's authenticity remains unverified, and some question whether "Nintendo Switch 2" will be the final name. Nintendo's history includes consoles with names vastly different from their predecessors (e.g., the Wii U). Some believe the Wii U's unconventional name hampered its sales, prompting a more straightforward approach for the Switch's successor.

Previous leaks appear to support Felipe's shared logo and name, but gamers should remain cautious until official confirmation. Recent social media activity hints at a potentially earlier-than-expected reveal.
