Bosses behind the new console, which was released by the games company this year, announced the 'FUZE Code Studio' will be made available for players as young as six and aims to teach anyone how to code their own games.

A spokesperson for the company said: "'Fuze Code Studio' motivates and inspires users of all ages and abilities, leaving them wanting to learn more, even if they have no prior experience of coding. Fuze's unique method means children as young as six can learn to code using a real text based language - and now it's coming to Nintendo Switch.

"Code Studio is the perfect stepping stone between visual coding simulators currently used in most primary schools and real-world languages like Python, Java and C++/# etc.

"It comes with everything you need to learn to code in on app. Users can code their own games and share the experience with friends and family - imagine creating your own game then transferring it to a big screen with multiple controllers so others can play your creations.

"Thanks to Nintendo Switch's revolutionary design this becomes a reality - and coders will soon be learning how to interact with external devices, sensors and motion controls in ways not previously possible."

Although no official release date for 'FUZE Code Studio' has been released, it is slated to become available between April and June next year. Pricing is set to be confirmed closer to the launch.

Extra gaming content will also be made available for the game via the DLC add-on packs.

The Japanese gaming company also revealed it is working on a Pokemon game for the console and also announced the release date for 'Super Mario Odyssey' slated for October 27.
