How to Stream on Switch

Can You Twitch stream on switch? Due to the lack of a Twitch app on the Switch, video game streamers will have to stream via the free streaming software OBS Studio. Here's everything you need for this streaming method.

How do I set up a Twitch stream?

Sign up for a Twitch account and get a stream key. You need it to stream your games. After registering, you should see the toolbar, select the Stream Key tab and click Show Key. Leave the page open for a minute. Download and install OBS. Open OBS as administrator and select "Settings" from the top left menu.

Can You stream Switch games?

Yes, you can switch between games while streaming or recording without stopping streaming or recording. When you exit the game, streaming or recording will continue (BRB display is active if you have it enabled) until you stop at the XSplit Gamecaster window or the XSplit Gamecaster overlay in another game.
