Nintendo Switch 2 users have a new firmware update to download and install, as version 23.0.0 includes support for variable refresh rate (VRR) in docked mode along with other new features.
Periodically, Nintendo releases system firmware updates that improve the console’s security and stability while occasionally adding in new features. While some updates are more substantial, smaller updates can also add some quality-of-life changes for specific players. For example, the Switch 2’s 22.5.0 firmware update added Dutch and Russian language support for text-to-speech as an accessibility option, alongside using Dutch and Russian as speech-to-text options within GameChat. While the original Switch also had a 23.0.0 firmware update, its latest features were more limited in scope compared to what was changed on Switch 2.
Months after the previous version 22.5.0 firmware update was released, Switch 2 users have some new features waiting for them after downloading and installing the new 22.3.0 update. Although the Switch 2 did not initially support VRR in docked mode, version 23.0.0 has now made that possible in supported titles. As of this writing, Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour is the only Switch 2 title that supports VRR in docked mode, though that list will obviously grow over time. VRR support also requires a Switch 2 to be connected to a compatible display via HDMI, along with a separate Switch 2 dock update that can be done via the System Settings menu. Additionally, audio settings can now be saved separately for each connected display and Dock Output Information has been renamed to Video Output Information within the System Settings.

Along with the addition of docked VRR support, the 23.0.0 firmware update made some changes to GameChat for players to consider. The chat list now shows which chats players have previously joined. Additionally, players do not need to invite any friends when starting a new chat and can use the C button during a chat to select a new option that changes the screen size. Version 23.0.0 now includes Brazilian Portuguese as a supported language that users can pick from when using text-to-speech or GameChat's speech-to-text.
