We reviewed the AVerMedia X'TRA GO (GC515) late last year, earning it an award for its innovative design, which combines docking, charging, and capture in a single device. Compatible with a wide range of gaming handhelds, including the Steam Deck, ROG Ally, and Nintendo Switch, AVerMedia has confirmed that it's fully compatible and optimized for the Nintendo Switch 2.

This is excellent news for those seeking a versatile dock, charger, and capture device for Nintendo's latest gaming console, as its simple plug-and-play design enables direct recording to an SD card. And with the AVerMedia Streaming Center software, you've also got an intuitive and straightforward tool for streaming or broadcasting Switch 2 gameplay.
AVerMedia offers a wide range of capture cards and chargers, and the company has created a dedicated Nintendo Switch 2 compatibility page outlining which products in its lineup are compatible and optimized for the new console. The compatibility list also includes the company's webcams and microphones.
In addition to the AVerMedia X'TRA GO (GC515), the list also includes the new ELITE GO and CORE GO devices (which we also reviewed), which offer the perfect solution for travellers looking for a compact fast-charger, video output, and even a capture device for the Switch 2.
AVerMedia notes on its compatibility page which devices are fully supported out-of-the-box and which ones require a firmware update for Switch 2 compatibility, along with helpful links to assist you in getting up and running.
There are very few products out there that offer the versatility, portability, and design of the X'TRA GO, ELITE GO, and CORE GO devices, so it's great to see AVerMedia take the guesswork out of choosing the right capture device or portable charger for the Nintendo Switch 2.
