Firmware 23.0.0 is available
NXFW has published Firmware 23.0.0, a Nintendo Switch firmware package maintained through the repository’s automatic update process. The release was published on September 10, 2026, as FW-23.0.0.zip.
The archive is listed at 340,525,824 bytes. The release notes contain no user-facing change log, feature details, fixes or compatibility information, so the documented update is the availability of this new firmware package.
FAT and exFAT NCA files listed
The release lists separate NCA files for FAT and exFAT storage formats. The FAT file is identified as 2377a6f36c2cc42c121cad2ffac236a9.nca, while the exFAT file is identified as 16510dde912c6c6894d573f17006f113.nca.
These files are part of the firmware package intended for Nintendo Switch-related software and workflows that support the corresponding firmware content. NXFW is a firmware repository; the release does not claim that the package runs directly on a computer or another host platform.
Download details
The project README directs users to its Releases section, where firmware archives follow the FW-X.X.X.zip naming format. The matching file for this release is FW-23.0.0.zip, which the README says can be extracted and used as needed.
NXFW also retains earlier firmware versions in its release archive and identifies the repository as an archival and educational project.
