Overview
- IO Interactive, which confirmed the change Wednesday, said the Nintendo Switch 2 edition will arrive later this summer while PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC remain set for May 27.
- The studio offered no specific reason for the Switch 2 timing and posted only that it aims to deliver the best experience, after previously pushing the overall launch from March to May for polish.
- PlayStation unveiled a limited-edition 007 First Light DualSense controller priced at $84.99, with pre-orders opening April 17 and release aligned with the May 27 game launch.
- Following confusion earlier this year, IO Interactive revised and apologized for inconsistent PC system requirements after an older spec sheet was shared by mistake.
- The delay fits a pattern of Switch 2 port challenges noted in recent coverage, including Borderlands 4’s shelved version and Elden Ring’s lack of a firm date after rough 2025 demos.
