Dbrand's Switch 2 Killswitch Case Reservations Open Today
Dbrand is opening up reservations for its Switch 2 Killswitch today, here's a brand new look at case.


Dbrand is set to open reservations for its new Switch 2 Killswitch case today, April 2, and we've managed to get a brand new look at the case as well. It's set to be one of the first major third-party accessories available to order for the new console. If you plan to reserve the case, there’s a $3 fee, which will be credited toward the final purchase and is fully refundable. Dbrand has been teasing its take on a Switch 2 case for months, claiming "over 100,000 users" are on its waitlist. The company was also among the first to hint at the console’s existence before Nintendo officially announced it. Now, the Killswitch is set to be one of the first protective cases designed specifically for the new hardware. Dbrand has a track record with handheld cases, having previously released versions for the Steam Deck and ROG Ally. The Switch 2 Killswitch continues that approach, focusing on a mix of protection and usability. Stand out features include: There's also a refined grip design, taking cues from its Steam Deck case by improving comfort without adding unnecessary bulk. The result is a lightweight but durable build aimed at making the Switch 2's handheld gaming more ergonomic. Dbrand also throws in a semi-transparent, crush-resistant travel cover and a snap-in game card holder that doubles as a small display case. While pricing details haven’t been announced (for reference, the Steam Deck Killswitch starts at £65 / $65), reservations should be available soon at Dbrand. The case is also expected to ship in time for the Switch 2 launch. If you are looking to pick up a Switch 2, preorders are expected to open soon, but be wary of scams from third-party sellers, which we cover in our tips for securing your Switch 2 preorder.
