There is still no safe, recommended method to unlock the Switch 2. Everything is a proof of concept, with a risk of brick and ban.

Artemis launcher gains Jinki Resurrection in Sonic_Iso’s fork and Nora 1 demo in the official project

As of November 8, 2026, the Artemis launcher has two additions on different paths. Sonic_Iso added the full Jinki Resurrection game to a fork, a derived version of __alula’s project, on November 7. The proposal to bring this support into the official project, PR #10, remains open and unmerged on November 8. Meanwhile, the Nora, Princess and Stray Cat HD demo (Nora 1), submitted by KurisuWaifu in PR #9, was merged into the official repository on November 8. There is no new official tagged version including that change yet: the latest remains v2, which predates the merge.

Context

The launcher uses specially prepared saves from Artemis Engine games to run homebrew programs in userland: like an ordinary program, without replacing the console’s system. It is not CFW, meaning a modified system installed on the console. This is a proof of concept: reports of it working come from the authors themselves; Switch2Unlock has not independently tested it. In PR #10, Sonic_Iso reports a test on firmware 23.0.1, but this does not confirm a test on an unmodified Switch 2: the report also mentions a modified system. Jinki support remains a third-party contribution, not an official __alula release. Switch2Unlock does not provide games, keys or firmware; this coverage applies only to original games.
