Monster Hunter: World udkommer på PlayStation 4, Xbox One og senere på året også PC, men i lang, lang tid var serien tæt forbundet med Nintendo-platforme, så derfor har der været mange der har håbet på, at spillet også ville udkomme på Switch i en eller anden form - det håb kan de fans dog godt skyde en hvid pil efter.
For nylig har en række ansatte fra udviklingsholdet nemlig talt lidt med IGN, deriblandt instruktørerne Kaname Fujioka og Yuya Tokuda, og de bekræftede at der ikke er nogen planer om en Switch-version endnu.
"We don't have any plans for the Switch at the moment. Part of the reason is that the title has been in development for almost 4 years. At the time we had to commit to our hardware choices, we decided on using the most powerful current generation consoles available at the time, which was PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. So [the decision was made] before the Switch was even announced or on sale."
It's also because for every title we decide what the best fit for hardware is for the concept. We don't just look at everything. It's more like "if we want to achieve this kind of game concept, where's the best place to achieve that?" and for this title the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One were the best fit for us."
Mon serien siger farvel til Nintendo-platformene permanent?
