Diablo 4 Set to Launch on Switch 2 Soon

A recent report suggests that Diablo 4 is set to make its way to the Nintendo Switch 2, with a potential launch date as early as September.

According to a source citing recent ratings board listings, Diablo 4 is expected to arrive on Switch 2 on either September 15 or September 18. The game is anticipated to retail for $69.99 in the U.S. and will feature a physical “code in a box” release, meaning players will receive a download code instead of a physical cartridge.

Earlier this year, the Indonesia Game Rating System (IGRS) reportedly listed the Lord of Hatred expansion for Diablo 4 on Nintendo Switch alongside other platforms, although the listing was later removed. More recently, Taiwan’s ratings board briefly published a classification for the game on Switch 2 before it was taken down, adding weight to the rumors that a port is in the works.

While Blizzard and Xbox have yet to officially announce a Switch 2 version of Diablo 4, the source claims to have independently confirmed the game’s existence. However, it remains unclear if the Lord of Hatred expansion will be included in this release. An inquiry has been made to Blizzard for confirmation, and updates will follow once a response is received.

The Lord of Hatred expansion has been praised for enhancing the endgame experience and introducing the new Spiritborn class, although some broader issues within the game persist.

If the report holds true, an official announcement at Gamescom later this month could be on the horizon. Xbox has already confirmed a significant presence at Gamescom 2026 as part of its 25th anniversary celebration, with major titles like Fable and Alien Isolation 2 set to be showcased.

Additionally, other unreleased games featured at Microsoft’s booth will include Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4, Gears of War: E-Day, Minecraft Dungeons 2, Metro 2039, The Blood of Dawnwalker, Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse, and Valor Mortis, with a total of 140 gaming stations available.

A Switch 2 release would further enrich Nintendo’s expanding library of third-party titles. The system has demonstrated its capability to handle graphically intensive games, though recent ports have also revealed some hardware limitations. How Diablo 4 will perform on Nintendo’s new console remains to be seen until Blizzard officially announces the port.

There’s a solid history of demon-slaying action on Switch, with Blizzard having released Diablo 3 on the original console back in 2018 and Diablo 2 Resurrected in 2021.
