It is reported that an event focusing on NS2 is being planned to be held in May. Combined with industry rumors, this console may be released in June this year. In the podcast, well-known industry insider Nate Drake provided the latest news on the NS2 announcement and potential release date.
Regarding the rumors circulating in the past few days that the game console will be released in June, this industry insider mentioned that from late September to early October, there are many rumors in the industry that the NS2 release window is set between late May and June. There is still some uncertainty on the matter, but partners and publishers are treating this period as the console's release window for the time being.
Although Nate Drake was unable to confirm whether the NS2 will indeed be launched during the release window of late May to June, the industry insider revealed that an event centered on the console is currently being planned to be held in May. The exact nature of the event is unclear, but it may be similar to the event in January 2017 where Nintendo invited media to experience the original NS. If Lao Ren follows a similar schedule, the timing of this event means that there is indeed a chance that the NS2 will be released in June, and June would be an excellent time to launch the console, as summer events such as Summer Game Festival and PAXEast can provide experience opportunities to generate more enthusiasm for the console.
There is no doubt that partners are preparing for the release of NS2, because pictures and product information of new Joy-Con controllers and accessories have begun to appear online. Hopefully it won't be too long before we finally get to see what Nintendo has been said to have been working on for quite some time.
