Twilight Princess Switch port rumours

It’s 2025 and we’re still eagerly awaiting an announcement of Twilight Princess on the Switch. Well, we can’t confirm it, but we’re sure new rumors will pop up soon. If we are to get a port of it coming to the Switch family of consoles, it’ll likely be for the Switch 2 at this point.

The most telling Twilight Princess Switch port rumor came from Jeff Grubb, speaking on the Game Mess podcast, saying that Nintendo would announce both Twilight Princess and Wind Waker Switch ports at the September 2022 Nintendo Direct. Grubb made a similar prediction in May of 2022, saying that he believed Nintendo would put out a Twilight Princess Switch port in October of that year. Well, we didn’t get an announcement.

Speaking on a previous episode of the podcast, he said “They’ve been holding onto this, why wouldn’t they just put it out this year?” Andy Robinson of VGC also had a similar certainty, saying that “Wind Waker and Twilight Princess were 100% coming soon” That’s two very well-respected videogame journalists conveying a lot of confidence for something that did not happen.

Twilight Princess Switch port release date speculation

Given all the evidence above, it seems like a Twilight Princess Switch port could still be released on the Switch, perhaps filling the ‘holiday game’ role Nintendo often has, but it does seem more likely that it would come to the Switch 2 at this point. This all assumes that the Twilight Princess Switch port actually exists, of course, which we’re still clinging to.

That’s our assessment of the Twilight Princess Switch port. If you fancy finding a different console while you wait, check out our guide to the best portable gaming consoles on the market today.
