Diablo 4 Could Be Coming to Switch 2
A security flaw in Indonesia’s Game Rating System (IGRS) has inadvertently revealed that Diablo 4’s Lord of Hatred expansion is being rated for Nintendo Switch, fueling speculation that the hack-and-slash RPG could be headed to the Nintendo Switch 2.
The discovery was shared on r/GamingLeaksAndRumours, where users spotted the Switch rating on the IGRS website. Since Diablo 4 has never been released on the original Nintendo Switch, many in the gaming community believe this rating indicates a Switch 2 port, though no official announcement has been made. The existence of a Lord of Hatred expansion rating for Switch suggests Blizzard may be planning to bring both the base game and new content to the upcoming console.
This leak comes as part of ongoing issues with the IGRS’s security, which has previously resulted in other game announcements being prematurely revealed. Most notably, the same rating board recently leaked information about the Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Remake and its planned new content before official announcements were made.
The Nintendo Switch 2 has been the subject of considerable speculation and leaks in recent months, with various third-party developers and publishers signaling support for the upcoming console. Diablo 4 arriving on the Switch 2 would represent a significant third-party title for the system’s library, though the game’s demanding nature raises questions about performance on a portable system.
As with all information derived from unconfirmed leaks, players should treat this revelation with caution until Blizzard or Nintendo issues an official announcement.
