Those who were expecting the Switch version to be updated will be disappointed to hear that Overkill is essentially done with the game. Explaining the decision to move on from what’s offered on Nintendo’s console, developer Overkill explained that “the transfer of the game over to the Switch-platform was not made in-house and would require significant further investments to happen.”

Overkill stated:
