Update: Looking for Split Fiction on Switch? There is a chance

Hazelight is back with another well-received co-op action-adventure game. Split Fiction was released on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S yesterday. Players using the Switch, however, may feel excluded. But will this change in the future?

Split Fiction – Switch release explained

Hazelight has released three games until now. So, let’s take a look at their console port history and try to estimate what the chances are for the Switch version.

1. The first Hazelight’s game, A Way Out, was released on PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
2. It Takes Two was initially launched on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. Over a year and a half later, the game was also released on Switch.

There is a possibility that Split Fiction will be available on Nintendo’s console, although this might not occur in the near future.

However, the situation with Nintendo Switch looks quite complicated right now. As we know, the Switch 2 will be released this year, so very soon. If the developers decide to port their game to Nintendo’s platform, they have two devices to pick from. Of course, the original console has a much bigger playerbase, but the upcoming handheld will be more powerful. It's hard to predict what the developers' choice would be. In theory, backward compatibility between these two devices (which was confirmed by Nintendo) is also a possibility, however, details on its implementation have not yet been revealed. So, it remains to wait for further news.
