Yuzu is an experimental open-source emulator for the Nintendo Switch from the creators of Citra. It is written in C++ with portability in mind, with builds actively maintained for Windows and Linux. The emulator currently can play various commercial titles and homebrew applications with varying degrees of success.
Yuzu is actively tested and supported on various 64-bit versions of Windows (7 and up) and Linux. macOS is no longer supported due to Apple deprecating OpenGL.
Yuzu currently requires an OpenGL 4.5 capable GPU and a CPU that has high single-core performance. It also requires a minimum of 8 GB of RAM. For more details, see our Quickstart Guide.
