• Citron is a new Nintendo Switch emulator available now in early access.
• It appears to be a Yuzu fork, with some new features and optimizations.
• The project claims to be for homebrew games only, but that’s unlikely to keep it safe from Nintendo’s lawyers.

Nintendo has been on a tear this year, shutting down Nintendo Switch emulators Yuzu and Ryujinx ahead of a presumed Nintendo Switch 2 launch. Now a new Yuzu fork called Citron has been spotted in the wild (via Overkill), but time will tell how long it remains safe.

Based on the open-source Yuzu code, it has a few minor updates and optimizations, but overall it’s very similar to its predecessor. Even the name and logo are clear references to the now-defunct Nintendo Switch emulator.
