Wccftech caught up with Elliot Grassiano, VP game production at Microids, for a chat about Syberia 3. While the game is gearing up for its initial launch, a Switch version will follow later in the year.
When Syberia does come to Switch, it may incorporate Switch-specific features such as HD Rumble. Grassiano teased:
“We are working on a faithful port of Syberia 3, it was important for us to offer mobility to players, to allow them to embody Kate Walker wherever they want. We are thinking about a specific development on Nintendo Switch with new features, including HD Rumble support. We will use the best of this console to offer an unforgettable experience for players.”
Grassiano also spoke about Switch in general, stating:
“The Nintendo Switch perfectly integrates into Nintendo’s DNA, to which innovation and gameplay were always preferred to console’s performances. Nintendo Switch is finally the console players were waiting for: it is a good mix between mobility and home consoles. We share the same vision of video games than Nintendo, we want to develop games that are capable of seducing as much casual as hardcore gamers, so it was natural for us to develop our main titles on this new platform.
In the past, we already worked with Nintendo by developing games on Nintendo DS and Nintendo 3DS. So, we already know Nintendo’s processes. As you might have noticed, during Nintendo’s announcement last January about Nintendo Switch, third parties’ publishers strongly support this new console by developing their main titles such as FIFA or Skyrim on it. There is also a huge desire from Nintendo to support third parties’ publishers – whether they are worldwide famous or not – by providing them all required resources.”
