Attach and detach with ease
The Nintendo Switch 2 system comes with two Joy-Con 2 controllers.
When you move the Joy-Con 2 controllers close to the sides of the system, they'll snap into place thanks to built-in magnets.
These strong magnets keep the controllers attached firmly to the system at all times. Simply press the release button on the back to disengage the magnetic lock-and off they come.
Accessories like the Joy-Con 2 wheel (sold separately) also take advantage of the new connection.
Enhanced sticks and buttons
The Left and Right Sticks are now larger and easier to rest your thumbs on. They also move more smoothly than before, with reduced noise.
The L and R Buttons are now longer, too, and the SL and SR Buttons are bigger for greater comfort and control when playing with a Joy-Con 2 held on its side.
A streamlined wrist strap
The Joy-Con 2 strap makes it easier to get into the game. Snap it on easily-and pop it off with the touch of a button. Handy for whenever you play using motion controls.
Mouse controls are a breeze thanks to smoother gliding and better stability the provided by the wider base of the wrist strap.
Be aware of your surroundings. Wear wrist straps and allow adequate room around you during gameplay.
HD rumble 2
From a faint quiver to a powerful shake that'll leave an impression, HD rumble 2 powers up the fidelity and capability of force feedback.
HD rumble 2 responds quickly to in-game action and can convey even more complex rumble patterns, creating a more refined tactile feeling.
Smooth mouse controls with Joy-Con 2
The mouse sensor on the side of each Joy-Con 2 controller lets you turn surfaces like a table or your lap into a mouse pad.
Both Joy-Con 2 controllers can be used for mouse controls at the same time, opening up new ways to play-like using both hands to control two mouse controllers simultaneously.
See those little sensors on the colourful sides of both Joy-Con 2 controllers? Place the sensors faced down on a surface and slide the controllers around to use them like a mouse in compatible games.
Whether passing one controller to a friend for multiplayer fun or using both yourself, mouse controls open up even more ways to play.
Please note: Responsiveness of mouse controls may vary depending on the play surface.
