Nintendo Switch 2 and games to get excited about in 2024 | This week's gaming news
16.01.2024 - 16:17 / engadget.com / Jessica Conditt / Nintendo
Welcome back to our weekly gaming news roundup.
January is a magical time in the video game industry. We've just closed out 12 months of marketing hype and shifting production timelines, and the year ahead is filled with the promises of new titles and fresh hardware. During this special month, we can look at the 2024 release calendar with excitement and optimism, before the delays start rolling in. So, let's get to it — these hearts aren't going to break themselves.
This week's stories
Arcane season 2 teaser
You watched Arcane, right? The Netflix series set in the League of Legends universe debuted in late 2021 and it was an instant sensation, starring fan-favorite characters like Jinx, Vi and Caitlyn. The next season is set to come out in November and Riot dropped a one-minute teaser for it last Friday. The trailer has Singed experimenting on himself in a dreary laboratory, while a creature that looks like Warwick hangs above, connected to tubes and IVs. It’s gonna get dark, kids.
If you haven’t watched season one of Arcane, do that now.
This kid beat Tetris
I guess we can all stop playing Tetris. 13-year-old Willis Gibson became the first person to reach the killscreen in the classic NES version of Tetris, 34 years after the game’s debut. Gibson caught the moment on camera and honestly, it gives me goosebumps every time I watch it. The competitive Tetris scene has been steadily growing over the past few years, and players are using a new input technique called rolling that allows them to move pieces faster than ever. If you’re into this kind of thing, I recommend watching Classic Tetris Monthly on Twitch or YouTube.
Promises, promises
Before we get back into all the award shows and livestreams and media events this year, let’s take a look at the video game promises heading into 2024.
There’s nothing official yet, but it looks like Nintendo is preparing to release the Switch 2 in 2024, seven years after the launch of the original Switch, and right in the middle of the PS5 and Xbox Series X console cycle. According to early reports, the Switch 2 will be an iterative hardware update with slightly more processing power and support for DLSS and raytracing. The big news is that Nintendo has finally joined us in the 21st century, and players should be able to transfer their Switch games to the new console without any roadblocks.
Outside of the new Switch, 2024 is all about games. We know how this goes, right — in video games, a release date is really just the first step before a delay, so whatever you’re into, prepare for heartbreak over the next 12 months.
There are two games I’m confident will actually hit the market on their release dates in 2024, and that’s only because they’ve been in development for

Esports are messy in 2024 | This week's gaming news
With the news that Blizzard and ESL FACEIT are preparing to launch a new esports circuit for Overwatch 2, mere months after the death of the Overwatch League, it's a good time to take stock of the entire esports scene. Things are looking slightly frantic, at least in North America. League of Legends and Rocket League are particularly messy, entering their 2024 seasons with lean budgets and major shakeups. Meanwhile, an expansion of the open-qualifiers model should provide more opportunities for everyday players to compete in Valorant, Overwatch 2, Rocket League and all manner of fighting games. Get those fingers ready, folks.

Some Developers Are Working on Nintendo Switch 2 Games, as Per GDC Survey
Leaks have insisted for a while now that Nintendo’s next-gen console is set to launch in the second half of 2024, and with the Switch not far away from entering its eighth year, that doesn’t seem hard to believe in the slightest. Of course, if the Switch’s successor is indeed just months away from launching, you’d assume that at least some developers in the industry will have access to development kits so they can work on games for the console- and sure enough, as per a GDC survey, that does seem to be the case.
