Plenbo’s G-Case 2 for Nintendo Switch 2 – What to Expect?
Nintendo’s April 2nd Direct introduced a wave of excitement with groundbreaking details about the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2—packed with new features like game chat, camera interaction, HDR10 support, and VRR up to 120Hz. With this next-gen console offering a fresh gaming experience, one question has been buzzing among fans: Will Plenbo release a G-Case 2 for the Switch 2?
Yes! Introducing G-Case GripShield 2
We’re thrilled to confirm that we will be launching a second-generation G-Case, officially named G-Case GripShield 2. Staying true to its roots, it will continue to serve as a battery-charging solution, ensuring uninterrupted gaming sessions on the go.
Nintendo Switch 2 Battery Specs – More Power, Less Playtime?
While the Switch 2 boasts an upgraded battery capacity, reports suggest a shorter battery life compared to previous models. Here’s a comparison of the battery specifications across Nintendo’s handheld lineup:
| Model | Battery Capacity | Battery Life | Charging Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nintendo Switch 2 | 5,220mAh (Lithium-ion) | ~2–6.5 hours | ~3 hours (Sleep mode) |
| Nintendo Switch OLED | 4,310mAh (Lithium-ion) | ~4.5–9 hours | ~3 hours (Sleep mode) |
| Nintendo Switch | 4,310mAh (Lithium-ion) | ~4.5–9 hours | ~3 hours (Sleep mode) |
| Nintendo Switch Lite | 3,570mAh (Lithium-ion) | ~3–7 hours | ~3 hours (Sleep mode) |
Given this, an external battery solution will be more essential than ever for extended playtime.
Launch Date & What to Expect
Plenbo’s G-Case GripShield 2‘s launch date hasn't been finalized yet.( Update on June 3rd: The launch plan has been postponed). Designed with both style and functionality, this upgraded case will offer powerful battery support, enhanced protection, and sleek portability.

Also here waiting for any update for your the Switch 2 timeline. Thank you all!
It would be nice to know more than that this has been postponed. I really don’t want to buy a travel case just to have another when you release yours. Some of us know we’re going to buy this, assuming it’s in line with the Switch G-Case. Also, I’m hoping the batteries from the original case will work with the new case. I’m assuming the new case will have more powerful batteries but using what we have would be nice.
When is the new (SWITCH 2) Version of the case coming out? I haven’t seen a blog update for June 3rd at all
would you please consider make a case for switch lite? i do owe the first gen for the original switch.
