He further added that the company has enough resources at its disposal through which is can develop games for PC and current-gen consoles along with focusing on Switch. However, this is hardly surprising since Nintendo Switch has proved to be very successful.

No release date has been announced for the title but, more details about the game will be revealed in 2018. However, if you are worried that this will affect the development of Life is strange 2, then rest assured as the studio has said that it won’t affect the studio’s ongoing work on Life Is Strange 2 as the game is being developed by a separate team.
Speaking of third-party titles coming to Nintendo Switch, Sony has also formed a new division “Unites” that will focus on publishing games for Nintendo Switch and PC.
