Connect to a server on Switch

How to connect to a Minecraft Bedrock Edition server on Nintendo Switch.

Bedrock Edition supports Nintendo Switch, and to connect, you'll need to update your DNS settings to join using BedrockConnect.

Editing DNS settings

From the Nintendo Switch menu, open the "System Settings" menu.

From there, scroll down to "Internet" and select "Internet Settings".

Choose the network that the device is connected to, then head to "Change Settings".

Scroll down to DNS settings and change it from automatic to manual.

For the Primary DNS, use the following code: 104.238.130.180 .

For the Secondary DNS, use the following code: 1.1.1.1.

Save your changes once done.

Connecting to the server

Open Minecraft Bedrock Edition and click "Play", before scrolling to the "Servers" tab.

Join any featured server on the list. Once connected, choose the "Connect to a Server" option.

Fill in the required fields (with the server's IP, port, etc.) and then you'll be able to connect to it.
