The Nintendo Switch 2 , the successor to the Nintendo Switch, will play Switch 2 exclusive games, as well as physical and digital Nintendo Switch games.
Nintendo debuted a promotional video for the Nintendo Switch 2, which is a larger version of the original Switch but with a similar look. Switch 2 has an additional USB-C port and the system controllers, called Joy-Cons, now attach to the side of the main unit rather than slide in.

According to the AP, Nintendo will offer more information about the system during the company’s April Nintendo Direct event.
