Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet producer on lack of Switch version, could be considered if many fans request it
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 32 Comments
At least for now, Bandai Namco has no plans to bring Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet to Switch. Producer Yosuke Futami recently explained why.
According to Futami, the team targeted all high-end consoles to reach as many players as possible. Currently there are no plans for a Switch version, which is in large part because the console didn’t exist when development started three years ago. Futami did say that if many fans request a Switch version, it could be considered.
