With the latest UPDATE, the answer is a resounding "Yes," with caveats.

If you still want to go the NSP route:
But honestly? The Switch port is good, not great. Load times can be long, and the text is tiny in handheld mode. The best way to play Darkest Dungeon portably is either a Steam Deck or a modded Switch with overclocking.
Stay sane, and remember: overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer. 🖤 | Option | Pros | Cons | |--------|------|------|

Q: Does this work on Yuzu or Ryujinx Emulator? A: Yes, the NSP format is compatible with Switch emulators. You may need to install the firmware keys for the emulator to recognize the update files correctly.
Q: Do I need to install the files in a specific order? A: It is best practice to install the Base game first, followed by the Update, and finally the DLC. Modern installers can often handle this automatically, but sequential installation prevents errors.
Q: Is "The Musketeer" DLC different from the Arbalest? A: Mechanically, the skills are very similar, but the Musketeer features entirely new artwork and different triggered effects, making her a distinct visual choice for your roster.
