CRKD, the premium collectible gaming brand, today announced a limited collaboration, a new retro-inspired design, and exclusive pre-order bonuses ahead of the launch of the highly anticipated Nitro Deck 2, expected to begin shipping in Spring 2026.
Announced last week via the IGN post-show for The Game Awards 2025, the Nitro Deck 2 is set to be the must-own hardware of the Switch 2 generation, a much-requested follow-up to the original Nitro Deck, loved by thousands of gamers worldwide who value increased comfort and functionality when gaming on the go.
Receiving an exceptionally strong response from the gaming community since the announcement of Nitro Deck 2, CRKD has been overwhelmed with the number of gamers rushing to secure their unit ahead of launch, and wish to thank each customer for their support. As a final gift before the Holiday, CRKD is delighted to offer loyal gamers even more, announcing today a retro-inspired design as well as the first exciting new collaboration for Nitro Deck 2.
Nitro Deck 2 – Limited Run Games Collaboration:
Limited by name and limited by nature, the first official Nitro Deck 2 collaboration is one collectors and fans won’t want to miss. Partnering with the masters of limited editions, Limited Run Games, this exclusive release introduces the Fusion Limited Edition, featuring a striking half-Glacier Blue/half Atomic Purple split design. The Fusion Limited Edition brings together the two most iconic colorways from the original Nitro Deck in a bold new form, created for players who want to stand out and play differently. Available exclusively through Limited Run Games and crkd.gg, this collaboration is a pre-order-only item and will be vaulted once the pre-order window closes on March 29, 2026.
Nitro Deck 2 – Pal Grey Edition:
Community is king at CRKD, and player feedback continues to shape every product decision. While the new Smoke Black and White Editions of Nitro Deck 2 were met with strong enthusiasm, the community also expressed interest in a retro-inspired design option. In response, CRKD is proud to introduce a new challenger to the lineup: the Nitro Deck 2 Pal Grey Edition.
Blending retro-chic aesthetics with modern engineering, the Pal Grey Edition celebrates gaming’s golden age, reimagined for today’s players. And the throwback doesn’t stop there. To complete the look, CRKD is also introducing the Pal Stick Top 8 Pack and Pal D-Pad 4 Pack (sold separately), designed as the perfect visual and functional pairing for the Pal Grey Edition.
CRKD Pre-Order Bonus Bonanza for ALL!
Saving the best news for last, CRKD is pleased to announce that all Nitro Deck 2 pre-orders will include an exclusive Nitro Deck 2 branded microfiber string bag and a Nitro Deck 2 Early Supporter Collector’s Pin. These complimentary bonuses will be included with every Nitro Deck 2 order, applying to all customers, including those who have already placed their pre-orders, as well as those planning to do so.
Nitro Deck 2 is estimated to be shipping in the Spring of next year. You can pre-order or find more details on the official CRKD site.
