Nintendo has announced two new color options for the New Joy-Con controllers for the Switch 2. The light purple and light green controllers will be out on February 12, the same day that Mario Tennis Fever comes out. This is the first time since the console came out that there are new official colors for the Joy-Con 2.
New Joy-Con 2 details and availability
You can now buy new Joy-Con controllers for your Nintendo Switch 2 if you want to make it your own. The new Light Purple and Light Green options have the same two-tone look as the regular models. The shell is mostly dark gray, but the joystick and side connection points have some color. You can now order these new Joy-Con sets ahead of time on Nintendo’s official website. The red and blue Joy-Con 2 controllers that are already out cost the same as this one: $99.99. February 12, 2026, is the release date.
Until now, the only new Joy-Con colors officially available were the red and blue ones that came with the base Nintendo Switch 2 console. This launch gives owners their first chance to see how different consoles work in shared spaces, such as homes with multiple devices. The first Nintendo Switch came out in more colors than just red and blue. It also came in gray.
The Nintendo Switch 2 launched about 7 months ago and sold well. These new Joy-Con options are now available. The company announced it on its social media accounts and the Nintendo Today app.
With the release of these new Joy-Con controllers, players will be able to customize their gaming setup in more ways. Nintendo has a history of releasing accessories alongside major first-party games, such as Mario Tennis Fever. The new Joy Con models work just like the old ones and have the same features.
