Discover the Nintendo Switch 2 at Currys!

Get ready to level up your gaming experience with the brand-new Nintendo Switch 2. Whether you're a gaming veteran, or a complete Nintendo newbie, the Switch 2 is perfect for gaming on the go and at home. Take it anywhere in handheld mode, then hook it up to your telly when you get home and bring your quest to the big screen.

Switch 2 specs and features

The Switch 2 specs are seriously impressive, making the console a total game-changer. The LCD screen is bigger (7.9 inches in all), letting you see even more of the action at once. While the 1080p resolution (combined with HDR10 support) makes colours pop and means all those tiny details really stand out. There's even support for 4K resolution while in dock mode. Mario and Luigi's overalls have never looked so good.

As for the frame rate, the Switch 2 doesn't lag behind. On selected titles, there's support for gameplay up to 1080p 120fps and 4K 60fps while in dock mode. The result? Ultra-smooth visuals that stay stutter-free, even when you're whizzing round the track in a lightning-fast super car.

With 256GB of Switch 2 internal storage, there's eight times more of it than we saw on the original Switch. You'll have more than enough room for all your digital games and save files. And you won't have to keep deleting titles to make space for the new ones. If you do find yourself needing more space though, you can always pick up a microSD Express card for additional storage.

Nintendo Switch 2 games

The Switch 2 is all about the games. And there's a whole load to choose from - especially when it comes to Switch 2 exclusives. In Mario Kart World, you'll race across the entire globe in massive 24 player races - the most ever in a Mario Kart game. Or go bananas in Donkey Kong Bananza, where you'll swing, jump and bash your way through a bunch of crazy levels.

If you want to get everything in one go though, check out our Switch 2 bundles. These packs come with the Switch 2 itself, plus popular games from some of Nintendo's biggest names. It usually works out a lot cheaper when you bag a bundle too, as buying the console and a game separately can be more expensive.

GameChat

GameChat is exactly what it sounds like. With it, you can chat with your mates while you play. And you won't need a headset to use it either. There's a little mic built into the console itself. It's surprisingly sensitive too and will pick up your voice over the sounds of battle, even when you're sat a fair distance away.

All-new Joy-Con 2 controllers and Switch 2 accessories

The Joy-Con 2 controllers are a big step up from the original. They're more comfortable to hold and more responsive, giving you better control over your character. Which is super handy during those fast-paced boss fights where every button press counts.

Oh, and each Joy-Con can be used like a mouse as well. It won't work for every title, but for strategy games - where a mouse is always the better option - it makes a huge difference to your gameplay.

As for the Nintendo Switch 2 accessories, why not check out the Nintendo Switch 2 camera? Plug it in, and you'll be able to video call with other players. Some games will even use your camera feed in the game itself! Pretty cool, right?
