Bethesda has confirmed that while it tries to make its game available on “every platform possible”, Fallout 76 simply “wasn’t doable” on Nintendo Switch.
At a PAX Aus panel yesterday (thanks, Gamespot), Bethesda marketing executive Pete Hines confirmed that while Switch development was “not a mandate”, the publisher was keen to “go where the money is” and will pursue Switch releases as “that’s how you stay in business”.
“I can say with certainty that [Nintendo Switch is] a part of every conversation with every dev we have now about what we’re doing going forward, because we consider it to be a viable platform,” Hines said. “If the game will work on it, we want it to be on every platform possible. Fallout 76 is not because it just wasn’t doable.
