With the buzz around the Switch 2, microSD Express cards are flying off the shelves. Thankfully, GameStop has stepped up with its own line of these essential storage solutions. Available for preorder in capacities ranging from 256GB ($49.99) to 512GB ($84.99) to 1TB ($149.99), these cards are scheduled to launch on the same day as the console, June 5. Don't miss out—preorder now to ensure you get the storage you need. Keep our hub page for microSD Express cards bookmarked to stay informed about restocks and new options.

Given the rapid sell-out of these cards, securing a storage upgrade for your Switch 2 is a priority. While the Switch 2 comes with a generous 256GB of internal storage—far surpassing the original Switch's 32GB—gamers with extensive libraries will appreciate the extra space. If you're on the fence about additional storage, remember: more space means more games at your fingertips.
