GameStop announces the details around its Nintendo Switch 2 midnight launch, and reveals some extra perks for gamers who attend.

GameStop posted a statement on X to confirm that they’ll have additional Switch 2 stock available online and in-store on June 5. There’s no telling what each individual store’s inventory will look like, but fans can line up as early as midnight on June 5 for a chance to buy a Switch 2.

GameStop will have additional Switch 2 stock available in-store and online when the console launches next month, according to a post on X. In-store launch events will begin at 3PM local time on June 4th, according to the company. Pickups start on June 5th at 12AM EST / June 4th at 9PM PST.

If we were judging by hype alone, the $450 Switch 2 could be the biggest console release of both this year and the past several years. And if you analyzed how well U.S. preorders have gone so far after tariff-born delays and mobbed retailers,

"Didn't pre-order Switch 2? Additional Switch 2 units will be available in-store and online at launch while supplies last. Launch event begins in-store at 3pm local time on June 4th. Switch 2 pickups start at 12am EST / 9pm PST."
