Croteam on Nintendo Switch
In an interview with WCCFTech, Alen Ladavac (CTO) and Daniel Lucic (Marketing Manager) from Croteam (developers of the Serious Sam series and The Tales Principle) revealed that they are currently working on porting their Serious Engine to the Nintendo Switch.
Here’s what they said:
How is the engine working with the console platforms at the moment?
AL: Really good. We are happy with that. Yeah. It’s become very streamlined to just ship one of our games on Xbox One or PS4 or Nintendo Switch. […]
So then the engine is working well with the Nintendo Switch?
AL: We are working on porting for the Nintendo Switch. I’m not sure what’s the current status and what we can share about that.
DL: We won’t share much, but it works.
And when asked whether we could expect to see The Talos Principle of Nintendo Switch, Daniel Lucic simply answered “Likely.”.
Based on this, it’s probably safe to expect some Croteam games to pop up on Nintendo Switch in the future!
