Diablo IV set for Nintendo Switch 2 launch in September 2026

A major third-party game is reportedly set to arrive on the Nintendo Switch 2 next month, according to a prominent industry source. Diablo IV, the acclaimed action role-playing game from Blizzard Entertainment, is expected to launch for the console on either September 15 or September 18, 2026.

The information comes from leaker billbilkun of Dealabs, who has a strong track record of accurate reports. The Switch 2 version is said to be priced at $69.99. While a physical edition is planned for retail stores, it will not contain a game cartridge. Instead, the box will include a download code, a practice that has become increasingly common in the industry.

A key detail that remains unclear is whether the game will include the Lord of Hatred expansion. The leaker could not verify if the DLC will be bundled with the base game or sold separately. The reported price point matches that of the Age of Hatred collection on other platforms, which includes the base game and both the Lord of Hatred and Vessel of Hatred expansions, but it is not confirmed if the Switch 2 version offers the same content.

Speculation suggests an official announcement could be made soon, potentially during Gamescom...
