GameChat Enables New Ways to Play Socially, All Together
32,
33,With the new online feature GameChat, people can play games and talk like everyone is in the same room, even if they are miles apart. GameChat makes it feel like online friends around the world are on the same couch. The console’s built-in mic can be used to voice chat while playing games with up to 12 people in different locations. Up to four friends can share their screen, and if they connect a compatible USB-C camera, such as the Nintendo Switch 2 camera (sold separately), they can also video chat, seeing each other’s faces as they cheer, shout, or laugh while playing. Additional friends can join the chat via audio only.

35,When initiating a GameChat session, the user invites people from their friend list. Safety features are in place to help players have a safe and secure chat experience, such as the ability to report a person while in a chat session. In addition, Nintendo recognises the important role parents/guardians play in their children’s online experiences, so children under 16 will need their parent/guardian to approve their use of GameChat with an updated version of the Nintendo Switch Parental Controls App.
