Rumors of a Nintendo Switch 2 have been circulating for months, with many sources pointing to a potential January 16th reveal. Adding fuel to the fire, a recent leak suggests a Star Wars title might be in the works for the new console. While not a brand-new Star Wars game designed specifically for the Switch 2, the potential port has generated considerable buzz among fans.
According to Daniel Camilo, a games industry writer and consultant, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is reportedly being developed for the Nintendo Switch 2. The timing of the port’s release – whether a launch title, a launch window release, or sometime later in the launch year – remains unclear. It’s even possible the port could arrive in 2026 or beyond, although this seems less likely.

Interestingly, it later became available on PS4 and Xbox One but bypassed the Nintendo Switch. This potential Switch 2 port marks a significant development for Nintendo fans eager to experience the acclaimed title. While it’s possible the game could also arrive on the original Switch, the current leak only mentions the Switch 2.
Examining the Leak and its Implications
It’s important to approach this information with caution. While the source isn’t an anonymous forum post, Daniel Camilo’s track record with leaks is limited. This doesn’t necessarily invalidate the claim, but it does warrant a degree of skepticism.
