Unity has pledged to support game developers with “official support for Nintendo Switch 2.”

In a statement, the engine maker said support will soon be available via a Unity 6 add-on for approved Nintendo developers, “further expanding Unity’s commitment to enabling creators to bring their visions to life on the widest range of platforms.”

Developers working on Nintendo’s new system can expect rendering and performance optimization, end-to-end multiplayer solutions, and enhanced development documentation.

Furthermore, Unity is also committed to “making it easier for developers to port their existing Nintendo Switch games” to Nintendo Switch 2 by “ensuring full compatibility with key features in Unity 6,” including the refreshed input systems, build profiles, and incremental build pipeline.

“We’re excited to offer official support for Nintendo Switch 2,” said Matthew Bromberg, CEO and President of Unity.

“Unity has battle-tested our support for Nintendo Switch 2 through hands-on development of a day-one launch title. The valuable feedback obtained during the development process provided learnings that will drive further enhancements to the Unity engine for those developers building new games for this gaming system.”

For those who missed it, the Nintendo Switch 2 will release on June 5. The price for the base Switch 2 unit was confirmed as $450 (or £396 in the UK) – $500 with Mario Kart World bundled in – with pre-orders opening on April 9.
