If you're about to take your Switch 2 on a grand summer adventure, an all-in-one case should be first on your shopping list. Well, maybe after the sunscreen. Once you have stocked up on enough factor 50 to keep your skin lathered up, picking up one of the best Nintendo Switch 2 cases, like the Turtle Beach Play Trek 2-in-1 Case, is a must if you're planning on getting in some docked-mode gaming during your valued time off.

A small travel case can keep your handheld safe as it's tossed around in a suitcase, but the Turtle Beach 2-in-1 case will keep it and your dock and cables safe, too. These alternatives are pretty large and pricier than a run-of-the-mill slimeline option, but the Turtle Beach Play Trek 2-in-1 Case is down to $39.99 at Amazon thanks to Amazing Gaming Week today. It's just a $10 discount, but that's an extra $10 off the best multi-purpose case I've reviewed so far. Plus, you can put that spare $10 towards getting some well-deserved grub on your vacation, or if you're as pale as me, even more of that precious sunscreen.

Save $10Turtle Beach PlayTrek 2-in-1 Case: was $49.99 now $39.99 at Amazon

The PlayTrek 2-in-1 case has returned to its lowest ever price, just in time for any summer vacations you have incoming. It has been $39.99 before in March earlier this year, but this was the first time it had had any considerable saving. Thanks to Amazin Gaming Week, this rare discount has returned, but it's a limited-time deal, so it won't be around for long.

You can technically get away with just shoving your dock in your suitcase, but I wouldn't recommend it. Particularly, as a first-party replacement, which includes a spare HDMI cable and AC adapter, will cost you $124.99 at Nintendo, which is not cheap. I regularly bring my entire Switch 2 setup to my in-laws' house when I'm house sitting, and I personally wouldn't risk it when options like the Turtle Beach PlayTrek case exist.

The Turtle Beach PlayTrek 2-in-1 case can fit the handheld, the dock, and both sets of cables, while still having extra space for accessories. The main section of the case is kitted out with individual parted sections that keep everything secure and prevent your fancy dock from hitting anything but the soft fabric-coated compartment surrounding it. I've reviewed a few of these cases in the past, but the Turtle Beach version stands out as these sections are actually specifically moulded for your Switch 2 accessories.

Alternatives like the JSAUX All-in-One Carrying Case are great, but it just has rectangular spaces that can roughly fit your dock and more. With specific sections that are specifically designed for each part of the Switch 2, it prevents your pricey tech from rattling around. I thought it was pretty limiting at first when I reviewed the case last year, as the controller section appears designed for the Switch 2 Pro controller that I don't have. But fortunately, it can store everything from the 8BitDo Ultimate 2 to the official NSO GameCube controller, and wasn't actually restrictive in practice at all.

While I've been rambling on, I haven't even got to the best feature of this Turtle Beach case, and most all-in-one cases for that matter - the fact that it's actually two cases in one. If you're planning on having some docked and handheld Switch 2 fun on your holiday, you can keep everything together as one large case, or zip off the top. The upper section of the accessory doubles up as a standalone travel case, which can easily fit in your backpack.

Want to do some fishing in Animal Crossing New Horizons at the beach while literally at the beach? You can do that without lugging around the two cases together, and the top half even provides a fabric mesh pocket that can fit a charging cable, and space to store plenty of physical games, from New Horizons to Pokemon Pokopia.

If you're worried about carrying the entire large case around, over the upper half, Turtle Beach throws in a carrying strap to make things easier. The brand also has the benefit of having the official Nintendo licence too so this one looks far more dapper than others I've tested. You're getting a lot of bang for buck for today's $39.99 deal price.

Before you grab this Amazon Gaming Week deal, do remember that if you don't have a reason to travel around with your Switch 2 dock, you don't exactly need one. Yet, as you're essentially getting two cases here, you can always grab it, stick to the travel case at the top, and keep the rest of it set aside for when you are prepared for some well-deserved free time off, docked gaming.

Ever since I first held a NES controller in my hand I've been obsessed with gaming, and the hardware it runs on. I could hook up a NES and SNES to a telly, without instructions, before I could walk. Even now, nothing is more exciting then taking a console, or handheld, out the box for the first time and setting it up. This obsession transformed into a love of games and game music, which lead to my music degree and dream of becoming the Scottish Nobuo Uematsu. After sharing my love of games through music, I began to share my love through words on sites like TechRadar and iMore. This lead to becoming a Hardware staff writer for PCGamesN, and later the Senior Tech Writer for Dexerto, covering all things Steam Deck, PlayStation and Nintendo. With that experience, I was able to level up as Hardware Editor for GamesRadar+, where I'm still just as Nintendo, PlayStation and gaming tech obsessed as ever.
