A fifth color option is being added to the Switch Lite lineup.
The Nintendo Switch Lite debuted in September 2019, giving fans a different option for enjoying Switch games in handheld mode. Unlike the regular Switch, the Switch Lite can’t be docked, and it’s a slightly smaller system when compared to the original Switch, making it a bit more portable.
At its debut, only three colors of the Nintendo Switch Lite console were available: turquoise, gray, and yellow. A fourth color option, coral, was released in Spring 2020, and now, a fifth color is coming in 2021.
The blue Nintendo Switch Lite console will be released on May 21 for $199.99. That’s the same price as the other color options, and it includes the same features as the rest of the Nintendo Switch Lite systems. It simply has a different color for players who would prefer it.
