Yuzu is an open-source video game console emulator developed and released by Team Yuzu. It emulate the Nintendo Switch.

Development of Yuzu was first announced on January 15, 2018.[1] Unlike most open-sourced emulators, updates are first released as timed-exclusives (Named Early Access) to Patreon donors for about a week before they were released to the public.[2]

As of June 25, 2023, the development of Yuzu is still on-going. For non-Patreon users, there is an unofficial build that provides Early Access releases.
