The Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller has been officially revealed. One of the most talked about mechanics of the Switch series that many gamers have talked about (good, bad, or indifferent) over the years is the controllers. While the standard joy cons started as great, over time, many users have fallen victim to the drift problems and easy breaks through consistent use. Being able to play the Switch anywhere, like in bed, on your couch, at your local cafe, or over your friends and families’ houses, is an amazing feeling to experience.

New Audio Jack
While many enjoy being able to play the game with just the standard output of audio, we will now be able to plug in headphones through the controller! For gamers, this opens up a whole new world of possibilities. For those who do not have gaming headphones, be prepared to purchase yourself a new set of gaming headphones for a more in-depth sound experience during your gaming prowess.
The new C-button is comfortably placed on the bottom face of the controller. This new button is going to launch. This will give gamers quick and easy access to the new game chat feature. Instead of having to go through menu settings to get it set up, all we will need is this one button, and we are on to the races!
Two Back Buttons
These buttons will be customizable at your discretion for your specific accessibility wants and desires. The GL and GR buttons are crucial to games that you may need to access energy, potions, or items to survive quickly.
