The Nintendo Switch is still a force in the console market. With record-breaking sales at launch, a smattering of excellent exclusives, and a massive library of wonderful indies, the Switch has become quite the juggernaut. Online multiplayer hasn’t quite gotten on the same level as PlayStation and Xbox, though. Even with its dedicated Nintendo Switch Online subscription program, the Switch still lags behind the competition. The install base, however, is huge, making it a great place to play online games, even if the infrastructure isn’t as feature rich. Additionally, a growing number of games feature crossplay support with Xbox, PlayStation, PC, and sometimes even mobile.

Here are all the Switch games with cross-platform multiplayer support.

Even though games that are accessible on all platforms are, obviously, superior, there are a few contenders that only use crossplay with PC or that use crossplay and cross-progression just with PC.

Normally, cross-saving games don’t have a decent online mode that would encourage crossplay. But the ability to load your save states onto a PC edition of a Switch game is surprisingly useful. Here are some titles that support save file transfers across your Nintendo Switch and PC. 

  • Civilization VI
  • DAEMON X MACHINA
  • Divinity: Original Sin 2 – Definitive Edition
  • Game Dev Tycoon
  • Hades
  • Immortals Fenyx Rising
  • Kingdom: Two Crowns
  • Minecraft
  • The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

Nintendo Switch games that support cross-progression

Aside from playing online with users on different platforms, a handful of Nintendo Switch games offer cross-progression support. This means you can make progress on other platforms, then sign into the Nintendo Switch version to pick up right where you left off, with all of your saved data carrying over. That way, you can easily move from platform to platform without losing your progress.

These are the Nintendo Switch titles that support cross-progression with other platforms:

  • Dauntless
  • Fortnite
  • Paladins
  • Realm Royale
  • Rocket League
  • Rogue Company
  • SMITE
  • Spellbreak

The main character of Tales of Kenzera: Zau stands with two elemental items.

The Nintendo Switch is one of the most popular consoles Nintendo has ever produced, with a wide variety of games to choose from and plenty of unique features. We’ve already gotten to play new entries across the Zelda, Super Mario, and Pokémon series on Nintendo Switch, but there are still plenty of great games on the way for the hybrid console. These include exclusive games developed internally by Nintendo, as well as third-party titles and ports of games that are also available on other platforms.

Here's our list of the best upcoming Nintendo Switch games for 2024 and beyond.
