Nintendo has officially confirmed the upcoming price increase for the Nintendo Switch 2 in the UK. Beginning September 1, 2026, the console's price will rise from £395.99 to £419.99.
The adjustment follows widespread price hikes initially announced by Nintendo back in May 2026, though specific regional details for the UK were not finalized until now. Alongside the UK update, Ireland's pricing will shift from €469,99 to €499,99, bringing it in line with other Eurozone regions.
