CRKD, the premium collectible gaming brand, announced today the blockbuster sequel of the season, with Nitro Deck 2 pre-orders starting today, and expected to ship beginning Spring 2026.
Announced today exclusively during a special presentation during the IGN post-show for The Game Awards 2025, the Nitro Deck 2 is the much-requested successor to the original CRKD Nitro Deck, the debut product from the popular gaming brand and a highly acclaimed accessory for the original Nintendo Switch.
We reviewed the original Nitro Deck, and one issue was that putting it on the Nintendo Switch could be a bit of a hassle. Seeing that the Nitro Deck 2 will be a lot more customizable, and you won’t have to fiddle around with putting your palm on the screen to get it on and off, is a nice change. Also to note, is I didn’t see much of a purpose in getting a better ergonomics handle on the original Nintendo Switch, due to the size and weight of the original Switch. That is not how I feel about the Nintendo Switch 2, however. It is bigger and a little bulkier with no grip to stabilize yourself with. It does mess with me, so I am super stoked that the Nitro Deck 2 is coming out!
Launching in White and Smoke Black, both featuring Metallic CRKD color Thumbstick
