Bethesda has enjoyed great success with ports of its games on the Switch, but SVP of global marketing Pete Hines has confirmed that Fallout 76 will not follow the trend.
The reason is not Bethesda's will to see the game on Nintendo's platform. Rather, it seems to be down to the capabilities of the platform itself.
Speaking on a panel at PAX Australia last week, Hines maintained that the Switch is "a viable platform" for Bethesda, and one that is "part of every conversation with every dev we have now" about their future plans.
"If the game will work on it, we want it to be on every platform possible," Hines said, as quoted by Gamespot. "Fallout 76 is not because it just wasn't doable. But honestly, there is no game in development that we haven't had a conversation about [bringing it to Switch]."
