Based on a game developer's resume, Gotham Knights may be coming to the Nintendo Switch 2. This intriguing possibility was highlighted by YouTuber Doctre81 on January 5, 2025.

The resume, belonging to a developer who worked at QLOC from 2018 to 2023, lists Gotham Knights among their projects, specifying it's destined for two unreleased platforms. While one could be the original Nintendo Switch (due to a since-removed ESRB rating), the game's performance issues on current-gen consoles make this less likely. The second, unreleased platform strongly suggests the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2.

It's crucial to remember that this is based on unconfirmed information. Neither Warner Bros. Games nor Nintendo have made any official announcements. However, with the Nintendo Switch 2 being the only major, unreleased console currently anticipated, the speculation holds some weight.

The possibility is further fueled by Gotham Knights' 2023 ESRB rating for the original Nintendo Switch, which, while subsequently removed, hints at prior development efforts for the platform. This, coupled with the recent YouTube report, strengthens the case for a Switch 2 release.

Nintendo President Shuntaro Furukawa's May 7, 2024, Twitter announcement promised further details on the Switch's successor "within this fiscal year," ending March 2025. He also confirmed backward compatibility with original Switch software and Nintendo Switch Online. The question of physical cartridge compatibility remains unanswered.
