Nintendo Switch 2 had a big showing today during the Direct, and we got to see plenty of new features, including the new GameChat. This is an in-console social feature that allows you to get into a social party with multiple friends. Not only that, but players will be able to stream their gameplay to each other in real-time, whether you’re coordinating on the same game, or just showing off something cool in a different one.
GameChat was shown off during the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct showcase this week. This feature emulates a number of features of things like Discord. There will also be a Nintendo Switch 2 Camera that will let players put their face to their gameplay if they want. Parents can also set privacy and parental controls to ensure their child’s safety on GameChat. The feature will require a Nintendo Online subscription to use, but will have a free early access period.
There’s a lot of Nintendo Switch 2 news coming today, so stay tuned for more details on the Switch 2 topic here at Shacknews.
