Nintendo Switch 2 launch day is almost here. In just a few hours, the hybrid console will be officially available, and a new generation of Nintendo gaming will begin. It's a day that gamers have been waiting a very long time for.
If you didn't manage to snag a pre-order, don't worry, you've still got a chance to score a Nintendo Switch 2 for launch day.
Retailers including Walmart, GameStop, Best Buy and Target have confirmed in-store midnight launches, which will include stock for customers without a pre-order already. These will be your best bet for securing a Switch 2 today.
Meanwhile, online restocks are on the horizon, with Walmart and GameStop set to restock online on launch day (June 5), and Target confirming fresh inventory dropping online on June 6. These will be just the first of many online Switch 2 restocks to come in the weeks ahead.

Dave the Diver's In the Jungle DLC may not arrive until 2026, but Godzilla is back
Dave the Diver just marked its two-year anniversary, and the team behind it has a bunch of updates to share about its future. While it's mostly good news, there is one little hiccup: the upcoming In the Jungle DLC , which was announced a few months ago and was expected to arrive later this year, now isn't likely to launch until 2026. But everything else announced in the 11-minute anniversary video should make up for it. That includes the return of the time-limited free Godzilla DLC , which is now back on all platforms until at least the end of 2026. If you missed out on it the first time, here's your chance. To view this content, you'll need to update your privacy settings. Please click here and view the "Content and social-media partners" setting to do so. Mintrocket Studio Head Jaeho Hwang also said the team is extending the availability of the recent DLC, Ichiban's Holiday , which will remain available through next year as well. After hearing feedback from fans about the pricing, that pack will get "regular discounts" to make it cheaper. The game just landed on the Epic Games Store and according Hwang, a free upgrade for Nintendo Switch 2 is coming "in a few months" and will bring a higher frame rate. More info on that is coming soon, Hwang said. In the meantime, you can catch a sneak peek of In the Jungle about four minutes into the anniversary video.
