Hi-Fi Rush Switch 2 Version Rumored
Before fans get too excited, it’s worth pointing out that the Nintendo Switch 2 console hasn’t even been announced yet. The latest reports suggest that aSwitch 2 reveal could happen as early as June 2024, with Nintendo releasing the console Q1 2025. Whenever Nintendo does decide to pull the curtain back on its next console, companies will start announcing games for it, and so it’s at that point that fans should learn if there’s any truth to theseHi-Fi Rushrumors or not.
Hi-Fi Rushisn’t the only game that has been “leaked” for the Switch 2 console. Leakers have claimed that the console has a 2DDonkey Konggame and anopen worldSuper Mariogameon the way, along with newMonster Hunter,Pokemon, andSuper Monkey Ballgames. None of these claims have been verified, and so fans should take the information with a massive grain of salt. Assuming the rumors about the Switch 2 reveal month are true, fans should at least have some answers about Nintendo’s next console, and the games coming to it, a little later this year.
