Nintendo has announced three Switch 2 bundles for UK release in October 2026, but an announced release date does not confirm that a retailer has stock or is accepting pre-orders today. At the time of the latest available listings, Nintendo’s UK Store showed prices from £449.99, while John Lewis listed a pre-order delivery date for one bundle. Check the live product page for the exact bundle, total cost and delivery estimate before paying.

What’s available to pre-order in the UK?

Nintendo UK announced a new holiday bundle range on 16 September 2026. It said the bundles were heading to stores soon; the dates below are announced availability dates, not a guarantee of current stock or an individual retailer’s delivery promise. Nintendo’s announcement is at Nintendo UK.

Bundle Announced availability What’s included Nintendo UK Store price observed
Nintendo Switch 2 + Nintendo Switch Sports Resort 22 October 2026 Switch 2 console, full game download and a download code for a three-month Nintendo Switch Online individual membership £449.99
Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World 29 October 2026 Switch 2 console, full game download and a download code for a three-month Nintendo Switch Online individual membership £459.99
Nintendo Switch 2 The Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition 29 October 2026 Switch 2 console featuring Triforce motifs on the back, Switch 2 dock and Joy-Con 2 controllers Not stated in the Nintendo UK Store catalogue information available at the time of the check

The Nintendo Store prices are catalogue entries observed in 2026, not a retailer-wide price survey; listings and availability can change. The announced contents and dates are from Nintendo UK; catalogue prices and stock labels are from the Nintendo UK Store.

UK retailer stock and delivery checks

Nintendo UK Store

The Nintendo UK Store catalogue displayed the Sports Resort bundle for £449.99 and the Mario Kart World bundle for £459.99. It also displayed a Switch 2 bundle with a 256GB microSD Express Card for Nintendo Switch 2 at £469.98. The catalogue marked its Pokémon Legends: Z-A bundle out of stock when checked. These are snapshots of that store’s listings, not confirmation of stock at other sellers or a live guarantee.

#1 Best Overall
Nintendo Switch 2 System

  • One system, three play modes: TV, Tabletop, and Handheld
  • Larger, vivid, 7.9” LCD touch screen with support for HDR and up to 120 fps

John Lewis

John Lewis listed the Sports Resort 256GB console as available to pre-order for delivery from 22 October 2026. That estimate applies to this retailer’s listing; it does not establish availability or delivery timing elsewhere. Check the John Lewis Switch 2 listing for its current terms.

Nintendo’s build-your-own offer

Nintendo UK’s homepage search listing showed a “Build Your Own Nintendo Switch 2 Bundle” offer and said a bonus accessory was included with purchase. The available information does not establish the live offer’s full terms or which items can currently be selected, so verify both on the Nintendo UK homepage before relying on the offer.

Nintendo Switch 2 System with Pokémon™ Legends: Z-A Switch™ 2 Edition Bundle
  • Experience gaming on a vibrant 7.9" LCD touch screen with HDR support and up to 120 fps, plus 4K output capability when docked to a compatible TV.
  • Command your Pokémon in groundbreaking real-time battles and harness the power of Mega Evolution to combat rampaging Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon across Lumiose City.

  • Connect and play with others through same-system, local wireless, and online multiplayer options with 256GB internal storage for your games.

How to compare the bundles before ordering

  • Compare the total price: use the checkout total, including any delivery charge, rather than comparing bundle labels alone. The prices above were observed on Nintendo’s UK Store and may change.
  • Check the exact contents: the Sports Resort and Mario Kart World bundles include a game download and a three-month individual membership code. The Zelda edition is described by its special console design and hardware; the available announcement does not list a game or membership code for it.
  • Check accessories carefully: Nintendo’s catalogue included a 256GB microSD Express Card bundle at £469.98. Confirm the specific card and compatibility on the product page if storage is part of your decision.
  • Read the delivery wording: distinguish an announced availability date from a retailer’s own delivery estimate. A date on one retailer’s page does not establish delivery timing from another.
  • Recheck availability at checkout: stock labels and pre-order terms can change, and the available listings do not provide a complete view of UK retailer inventory.

What “pre-orders live” means for this update

The evidence available establishes Nintendo’s announced UK bundle dates, prices shown in its own catalogue, and one John Lewis pre-order delivery estimate. It does not establish which UK retailers currently have every bundle available, the current checkout price at each retailer, or a market-wide stock position. Treat an item as available only when the retailer’s live page allows you to place the order and confirms the terms that apply to your checkout.
