Nintendo has released a firmware update for Nintendo Switch 2, as well as the original Switch, bringing the entire family of systems to Version 23.5.0. The update adds support for an upcoming new feature, set to arrive on 16th November, allowing for Nintendo Account family group members to gift Nintendo eShop games to each other. The specifics of this feature can be found on Nintendo’s website, where it’s been confirmed that DLC and Upgrade Packs can also be gifted, and you can even choose what colour to use for the digital gift wrap when the new title immediately arrives on the recipient’s HOME screen. Version 23.5.0 is available now, which also makes general adjustments and fixes, and the full patch notes can be found below.
