# COD6-NX: Xbox 360 Modern Warfare 2 recompilation for Switch

> COD6-NX ports the Xbox 360 Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 to Nintendo Switch by recompiling game code for ARM64 with ReXGlue. Its custom Vulkan renderer consumes the game's PM4 command ring and manages textures, pipelines and render targets; development notes record observed rendering failures.
