Independent reader supportYour contribution helps us test, update, and keep practical guides available for everyone.If the controller will not connect
- Wireless controller paired before but will not reconnect: Open Controllers > Change Grip/Order and press L and R when prompted.
- Wired controller does not connect automatically: Confirm that the cable is plugged into a USB port on the Switch 2 dock, then use Change Grip/Order and press L and R when prompted.
- Buttons or feature descriptions do not match: Check the exact Rematch generation. Turtle Beach says its earlier wireless Rematch also works with Switch 2, but its C Button is unavailable on that console. The older wired model’s support information lists Nintendo Switch and Switch OLED when used with the dock; it is distinct from the Switch 2-specific wired model.
For those older models, see Turtle Beach’s earlier Rematch Wireless product information and Rematch Wired FAQ. Do not assume that every Rematch controller has the same Switch 2 compatibility or features.
