With 1,000 engineer-years of effort across every element - from system and chip design to a custom GPU, application programming interfaces (APIs) and world-class development tools - the Nintendo Switch 2 brings major upgrades.
The new console enables up to 4K gaming in TV mode and up to 120 frames per second at 1080p in handheld mode. Nintendo Switch 2 also supports high dynamic range and AI upscaling to sharpen visuals and smooth gameplay.
AI and Ray Tracing for Next-Level Visuals The new RT Cores bring real-time ray tracing, delivering lifelike lighting, reflections and shadows for more immersive worlds.

Tensor Cores also enable AI-powered face tracking and background removal in video chat use cases, enhancing social gaming and streaming.
With millions of players worldwide, the Nintendo Switch has become a gaming powerhouse and home to Nintendo's storied franchises. Its hybrid design redefined console gaming, bridging TV and handheld play.
