Nintendo of America's boss gives a worrying update on the possibility of GTA 6 getting a Switch 2 release

Rockstar's GTA 6 is the biggest game of 2026 and possibly ever, but it's not coming to Switch 2 ... or is it? Nintendo of America's new president, Devon Pritchard, was recently asked if GTA 6 is coming to Switch 2, and she didn't say yes or no. Instead, she said people should ask Rockstar and its owner, Take-Two. “That’s going to be a conversation for Take-Two and Rockstar, but nothing to announce on my end at this time,” Pritchard told Variety. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=klc0fQmAL6k In May of 2025, a report from NateTheHate said Rockstar was conducting tests to see about bringing GTA 6 to Switch 2. He clarified that this doesn't mean GTA 6 was planned for Switch 2, going on to say developers regularly conduct tests to see if their games are technically feasible on different platforms. For now, GTA 6 is confirmed only for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S when it launches on November 19. History suggests that a PC edition will follow later, but this is not confirmed. CEO Strauss Zelnick said the company could bring more games to Switch 2, but it's unknown if GTA 6 may be among them. He said Take-Two “would not necessarily bring every title to the platform,” but he noted there is a “great” opportunity to bring some of its older titles to Switch 2. He also said he is a “big believer” in the Switch 2. While GTA 6 may not be coming to Switch 2, Rockstar released GTA: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition on Switch in 2021, and it's playable on Switch 2 as well. Before this, Rockstar released GTA: Chinatown Wars for Nintendo DS. GTA 1 and GTA 2 also came to the Game Boy back in the day.
