Abstract The paper is concerned with approximate solutions of nonzero-sum differential games. An approximate Nash equilibrium can be designed by a given solution of an auxiliary continuous-time dynamic game. We consider the case when dynamics is determined by a Markov chain. For this game the value function is determined by an ordinary differential inclusion. Thus, we obtain a construction of approximate equilibria with the players' outcome close to the solution of the differential inclusion. Additionally, we propose a way of designing a continuous-time Markov game approximating the original dynamics.
