Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 2 Comments
Only a handful of Switch games support video capture at the moment. And for older titles, they need to be updated so that players can record footage.
Shovel Knight is one Switch game that will be receiving support for video capture in the future. Yacht Club told one fan on Twitter that it will be added in the next update. We’ll likely be seeing it when King of Cards launches in 2018.

Video recording on Switch will be supported in SK's next update, most likely with King of Cards next year.
