DC Universe Online Launches for Switch on August 6

Daybreak Game Company has announced the release date for DC Universe Online on Nintendo Switch.

The free-to-play DC Universe-themed MMO will launch for the hybrid console on August 6th, via the eShop.


If you’ve been playing the game on other platforms, accounts or characters cannot be transferred to the Switch version, as it uses Nintendo Accounts and does not link to existing accounts.

The Switch version will initially run on its own server, but Daybreak noted they “looks forward to exploring cross-play options in the future.”

Here’s a brief overview of the game:

DC Universe Online is free-to-play! Join thousands of other players in a massive online action game set in the popular DC Comics universe. Create and customize your own powerful Hero or Villain and experience true action combat as you fight alongside and against legendary characters such as Batman, Superman, The Joker and Lex Luthor. Become a part of our thriving community at DCUniverseOnline.com! Please note the download could take several hours, but it’s worth the wait!

DC Universe Online was originally released for Windows PC and PlayStation 3 back in 2011, only to later be ported to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
