In Wuthering Waves, players get to explore a post-apocalyptic world and battle monsters in this new gacha game. With the game coming soon, players are speculating if the game will be seen across various platforms, including the Nintendo Switch. In line with that, we've got the latest information regarding Wuthering Waves possibly coming to Nintendo Switch or not.

The game's premise puts players in the role of the "Rover" who is tasked to uncover the mysteries behind the world that has been overrun by monsters. Playing the game on Nintendo Switch would make adventures in-game more immersive and mobile. However, let's first confirm if we'll be seeing the game on the platform.

Is Wuthering Waves on Nintendo Switch?

At present, there haven't been any announcements or information regarding Wuthering Waves being released for the Nintendo Switch. So players can only expect the game to come out on other platforms by its launch day.

One of the main reasons players won't be seeing the game on this device is because the Nintendo Switch is still underpowered and cannot handle the system requirements of the game. This is further discussed in a Wuthering Waves Reddit post a few months ago wherein users talked about how the features of the Nintendo Switch aren't on par yet with some of today's powerful mobile devices.

Similarly, games such as Genshin Impact and Honkai Star Rail haven't been ported as well to the Nintendo Switch. It's possible, however, that when the Nintendo Switch 2 comes out, it may have features that can handle the requirements of those games and Wuthering Waves. We'll continue to update this article once new information on this comes in.

Wuthering Waves supported platforms

As players won't be seeing Wuthering Waves on Nintendo Switch any time soon, they can still catch the release of the game by 22 May 2024 across other platforms. Sign-ups for in-game bonuses are still available on the official Wuthering Waves website.

For the other supported platforms for Wuthering Waves, players have a variety of options to download and play the game from. From Android through the Google PlayStore, iOS via the App Store, PC through the Epic Games store, and Sony consoles such as the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
