From the time of its launch, GameMaker games will be accessible on the Nintendo Switch. Nintendo and the best 2D game production engine have partnered to allow games made in GameMaker to be exported straight to the company’s newest system, the Nintendo Switch 2. Later this year, the console will be released.
Russell Kay, Head of GameMaker stated, “Announcing support for Nintendo Switch 2 from day one is huge for GameMaker and our developer community. Just as Nintendo championed independent creativity on the original Switch, we’re incredibly excited about the opportunities this deal with Nintendo unlocks for developers to bring a new wave of fantastic GameMaker games to players on what’s sure to be the next groundbreaking console.”
Soon, more thorough information on the features, schedule, and ways developers can participate in the full release of GameMaker’s support for the Nintendo Switch 2 will be made public.
Thousands of games, such as Undertale, Pizza Tower, and Chicory: A Colorful Tale, have been exported to the Nintendo eShop, demonstrating how well-liked the Nintendo Switch platform is among GameMaker developers. Furthermore, GameMaker is already collaborating with several developers on titles that will soon be available for the Nintendo Switch 2.
This achievement paves the way for the much awaited Nintendo Switch 2 release later this year. With more than 150 million sold, the original Nintendo Switch has become a phenomenon and one of the all-time best-selling consoles.
