The latest leaks come from accessory manufacturers who are allegedly working on creating new products for Nintendo's newest console. One of these is Dbrand, which recently advertised its upcoming Killswitch 2 case that comes with a high-quality render of the Switch 2, according to Screen Rant.

However, as Nintendo itself has not yet officially confirmed anything, players should take information from leaks with a grain of salt. More rumored accessories for the Nintendo Switch 2 include a U-shaped kickstand, a screen protector,m and a carrying case.

The recent visual leaks also caused fans to spread rumors that Nintendo could announce the new console sooner rather than later, which could come as early as next month. The rumored release date for the Nintendo Switch 2 is Mar. 28, 2025.

If accurate, that will most likely be the same time when the Nintendo Switch 2 accessories will become available for purchase. This comes as other leaks suggested that the console could be announced by Nintendo in the first or second half of January 2025, according to BGR.
