Ruffy and the Riverside might be making its way to the anticipated Switch 2, generating even more excitement for fans of the 3D platformer genre. This new addition hints at an upcoming release along with the console, which is predicted to hit shelves this June. With these developments, it seems Nintendo’s next-gen console could be just around the corner.
Nintendo has scheduled a special event on Wednesday, April 2 at 8:00 am CT to delve into more details about the Switch 2. This presentation is expected to unveil crucial information, including the console’s price, release date, pre-order options, and its game library. It’s an event that enthusiasts certainly won’t want to miss.
Though Nintendo remains mostly mum on the exact games lineup for the Switch 2, other developers are slowly lifting the curtain. Recent buzz revolves around Ruffy and the Riverside, a game now set to drop on June 26. An announcement, spotted by Go Nintendo, suggested a release on “Nintendo Switch(es),” implying the game is likely aiming for both the original Switch and its successor.
Looking closely at this announcement, it appears to hint at the Switch 2’s potential release date, potentially narrowing it down to before June 26 if the phrase “Nintendo Switch(es)” is to be taken at face value. However, it’s wise to temper expectations until Nintendo officially confirms the release date.
Fans anticipate the new console’s debut in the upcoming months, but it’s always prudent to prepare for possible delays. Until Nintendo decides to pull back the curtain a little further, all we have is speculation. Fortunately, with the special Nintendo Switch 2 Direct presentation on its way, answers are right at the doorstep.
In addition to the Switch, Ruffy and the Riverside will also be available on other platforms. Gamers can look forward to experiencing it on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S, making June 26 a date worth circling on the calendar. Whether you’re a platformer aficionado or just keeping an eye on the Switch 2, there’s a lot to be excited about.
