Nintendo Switch 2 leaker hints at Christmas Day surprise and launch game details

More leaks have emerged around Nintendo’s next console, including new images and hints as to a potential launch game. Nintendo Switch 2 leaks have become an almost daily occurrence over recent weeks, between videos of the seemingly magnetic Joy-Cons and Chinese accessory manufacturers releasing images of the console.

The console is set to be announced at some point before April next year, but it seems like an official reveal could be just around the corner based on the volume of new information cropping up online. Among the new leaks is Reddit user NextHandheld, who claims to have a final unit of the Switch 2, and in the spirit of the festive season, has promised to provide proof on Christmas Day.

While these antics would usually be brushed aside as fake, especially as the leaker joked they were ‘from the future’, moderators on the Nintendo Switch 2 subreddit have said the person provided them proof of their claims ‘at least to some extent’. They do, however, admit he could just be ‘a really good hoaxer’.
‘They did not want to share the evidence because it could reveal their identity to people around them,’ the subreddit moderator wrote. While NextHandheld apparently hasn’t turned on the console itself, because they were ‘not allowed to’, they answered various questions about it on Reddit. One of their claims is that there is ‘something new’ in the Joy-Cons not mentioned in prior leaks which ‘could create new experiences’, although they don’t say what.
