The Nintendo Switch version of Factorio was released on October 28, 2022. It is mostly identical to the PC version, the only large differences are the controls and the missing mod support.
Save files are compatible between platforms. Cross-platform multiplayer is possible as long as the game versions match. When using Steam on PC, the "console" beta branch can be selected to make the versions match.

Exclusive features

Controller support, including the quick panel GUI, is the only Nintendo Switch exclusive feature.

Limitations

  • There is no mod support.[1]
  • Nintendo Switch Online is required for online play, but not required for LAN games.[2]
  • Games hosted on a dedicated server are not shown in the browse multiplayer game GUIs.
  • There is no save transfer feature, but saves can be transferred using multiplayer.[3]
  • There is no blueprint transfer feature, but blueprints can be transferred using multiplayer.[4]
  • Maps over 100MB or with a very large number of entities (typically downloaded from the PC version) can not be loaded.[5]
