Dressmaker on Nintendo Switch: Release Date and Status
Updated
No, Dressmaker isn't on Switch or Switch 2 yet, and there is no release date. Right now it's only on Steam for Windows and Mac. The developers have confirmed that Switch and mobile ports are planned, paid for by Steam sales and handled by a porting team, but as of October 2, 2026 there's no date, price or named console. Here's everything that's known.

What we know about the Switch version
- The port was one of the most requested features from players at launch.
- The studio is tiny (its October 1 update mentions “about 1.5 programmers”) and is still working through launch bug reports, so the ports are a longer-term job handled by a separate porting team.
- The developers' roadmap also lists full controller support, which a Switch version depends on, plus an online challenge mode and transparent fabrics — see updates & roadmap.
- Dressmaker is a precise, mouse-driven game (cutting and sewing), so touch-screen play in handheld mode could suit it well.
How to play Dressmaker now

Frequently asked questions
Is Dressmaker on Nintendo Switch?
Not yet. A Switch port has been confirmed by the developers, but there is no release date.
Will Dressmaker be on Switch 2?
Nobody knows yet. The developers have said only that a Switch port is planned, without naming Switch 1 or Switch 2. Switch 2 plays most Switch 1 games, so either version would most likely run on it.
When is the Dressmaker Switch release date?
There isn't one. As of October 2, 2026 the studio has given no date, price or release window, and its latest Steam news post (October 1) doesn't mention the port. Any date you see elsewhere is a guess.
Is there a Dressmaker app or APK for phones?
No. Mobile versions are planned but not released, so any Dressmaker APK or 'mobile version' download is unofficial and best avoided. The game is only sold on Steam today.
How will Dressmaker work with a controller?
Full controller support is on the roadmap for the PC version too, and a console port will need it — expect it to arrive before or with the Switch release.
How much will Dressmaker cost on Switch?
No Switch price has been announced. On Steam the game is $14.99.
