It’s official. The Nintendo Switch 2 is set to receive a price hike around the world, largely as a result of the ongoing memory crisis.
In the US, the Switch 2 will get a $50 increase, effective 1 September 2026, meaning it will cost $499.99. Consumers in the UK, Europe, Canada, and beyond can also expect to pay more for the console in coming months. The announcement has led a lot of people to wonder whether they should act now and grab the console at its current lower price.
