In a blog post, Hello Games managing director Sean Murray mentioned that the studio has been tinkering away on the Switch port for a “couple of years”. There were points when the team wasn’t sure if it would be possible, “only to have someone stride in the next day with a unique technical solution.” Hello Games is also “taking the time to make this feel completely at home on the device, both on the big screen, but importantly as a portable version of No Man’s Sky.”
