Like many games, Star Wars Outlaws’ physical release on Nintendo Switch is a game-key card. But now we get to hear directly from a developer about why that ended up happening.

Rob Bantin, the audio architect for Ubisoft’s Snowdrop engine, recently spoke about the situation on social media. In one post, Bantin noted that the “engine relies heavily on disk streaming for its open world environments, and Switch 2 cards didn’t give the performance needed for their quality target.” He went on to say that had Star Wars Outlaws been developed for Nintendo Switch 2 originally, “it might have been different.” Bantin added: “As it was, we’d build a game around the SSDs of the initial target platforms, and then the Switch 2 came along a while later. In this case I think our leadership made the right call.”
