How to Get Mods on Minecraft Nintendo Switch
Last updated
Ever wonder how you can spice up your Minecraft experience on the Nintendo Switch? You’re not alone! Players everywhere are asking how they can add mods to their game on this popular console.
Let’s dive into the nitty-gritty of getting mods installed on your Minecraft game for the Nintendo Switch. It’s simpler than you might think!
Mods on Minecraft Nintendo Switch: Is It Possible?
First off, the straight answer: Officially, you can’t add mods to Minecraft on the Nintendo Switch. Unlike the PC version, the game on Nintendo’s hit console doesn’t support the traditional modding that many players love.
However, there’s a workaround. While you can’t directly install mods as you would on a PC, you can use ‘add-ons’ available through the Minecraft Marketplace. These add-ons can change gameplay, offering a mod-like experience.
Exploring the Minecraft Marketplace
The Minecraft Marketplace is your go-to for customizing your game on the Nintendo Switch. Here, you can find skins, texture packs, and world maps that can alter your game significantly, even if they’re not mods in the traditional sense.
Keep in mind, these add-ons are not free. You’ll need to use Minecoins, Minecraft’s in-game currency, to purchase them. You can buy Minecoins with real money, so plan your purchases accordingly!
