So, to rephrase the question, can you set up your very own Minecraft server while gaming on the Nintendo Switch? We know how crucial this could be for those epic build sessions with friends!
Setting Up Multiplayer Sessions on Nintendo Switch
Unfortunately, you cannot create a traditional ‘server’ like you might on PC. However, Nintendo Switch players can still enjoy multiplayer gaming through the game’s multiplayer feature or by joining already established servers available within Minecraft.
This setup means you can connect with friends or other players worldwide, as long as you have a Nintendo Switch Online membership. So, while you might not be able to run a server in the usual sense, there’s still plenty of multiplayer fun to be had.
