AlthoughNintendohas yet to officially announce its next handheld, it seems it will have to speed up plans as multiple images of the Switch 2 were leaked online earlier today.
This comes courtesy of a Chinese website with the post and images being shared over on r/GamingLeaksAndRumours.
The post reads: “Photos of Switch 2 factory prototypes have leaked on a Chinese website.”
TheReddit postthen translates some of the information that was leaked.

“Translation: “switch second generation model stp” “switch second generation switch2 model stp: magnetic slide rail, 8-inch large screen, length 270 width 115 thickness 14, two typec interfaces”.
However, what is perhaps the most exciting bit is the leaked images which consist of twelve angles of the brand-new handheld.
It is perhaps no surprise that it looks pretty identical to the original Nintendo Switch but we can expect it to be a lot more powerful.
This comes especially after the post was recently updated with the Switch 2’s specs which were also leaked on the Chinese website.

“Thank god it is just a newer, bigger and better Switch without silly shenanigans,” one read.
Another said: “Definitely feels very “Switch 2” if the leaks are true. The overall design is very similar to the Switch, basically an upgraded version of it.”
Now we just have to wait until Nintendo makes the official announcement but there is no denying that fans are eager for the next iteration of the Switch.
