Since the re-reveal of Beyond Good & Evil 2 at E3 last week, a Switch version really started to look uncertain. Though we maintained a small glimmer of hope about the game releasing on the system, things are even more doubtful now.

Beyond Good & Evil 2 creator Michel Ancel posted a message on his Facebook page today with some news about the project. Platforms were listed in his message, and sadly, Switch is nowhere to be seen.


Given what we’ve learned about Beyond Good & Evil 2 over the past week or so, this was somewhat expected. It’s just a shame that the original rumors were entirely off the mark.

Nintendo UK has a new interview up with Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle developer Davide Soliani. Soliani spoke about what it was like originally pitching the idea to Nintendo, the emotional reveal at E3 last week, and more. Read on below for his various comments.

IGN is the latest outlet to have published an interview with Shigeru Miyamoto and Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot about Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle. It admittedly covers the same kinds of topics we’ve heard between the Ubisoft E3 presentation and subsequent interviews, but there are a few small extras here and there. The latest comments from the two are in the video and source link below.

This past week, Ubisoft announced Starlink: Battle for Atlas, and it’s heading to Switch. Watch some off-screen footage below.

Update: Bumped to the top. Perhaps there’s some hope for Beyond Good & Evil 2 on Switch after all, even if it’s small. Creator Michel Ancel said on his Instagram page that platforms aren’t announced. Make of that what you will. Again though, unless we hear about a Switch version, we won’t be posting about the game again.



Original: Ubisoft re-revealed Beyond Good & Evil 2 during its media briefing this week. Platforms weren’t announced at the time, but despite a few rumors of it being on Switch, a release on Nintendo’s console is unfortunately looking unlikely.

Ubisoft is letting fans register their interest in a Space Monkey Program as a way of contributing to Beyond Good & Evil 2’s development. Right now, the only platforms listed are PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC – Switch is nowhere to be seen. Retailers have also started to take pre-orders and Switch is sadly absent.

It definitely would have been nice had Beyond Good & Evil 2 ended up on Switch, especially given how the first one was on GameCube. But unless we hear otherwise, this will probably be the final time we post about the game here.

This information comes from Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot…

“What is fantastic about working with Nintendo and with Miyamoto in particular is that you are working with the best. It’s easy to work with the smartest people in the industry and they have a great understanding of what works and we are very often on the same page about how to solve a problem.

I travel a lot for work, but thanks to the Switch I’ve been able to play Zelda. It’s a great game and we can learn a lot about how we make games by looking at what Nintendo has done.”
