Could Diablo 4 make its way to the Nintendo Switch 2? According to Rod Fergusson, Blizzard is open too the idea, but there’s one major hurdle too overcome!
Speaking to Gamertag Radio, as cited by Videogamer, Fergusson confirmed that Blizzard is considering bringing Diablo 4 to the Switch 2.
“I think there’s opportunity there for sure,” Fergusson said.
He highlighted that both Diablo 3 and Diablo 2 Resurrected are already on the original Switch and will run on the new console thanks to backward compatibility. Given the Switch 2’s improved secs, performance is no longer the primary concern!
“It’s nice the Switch 2 has the performance that can run a game like Diablo 4,” Fergusson noted.
The Live-Service Limitation
The REAL challenge lies in the live-service structure of Diablo 4. Fergusson pointed out that these types of games have historically had a rough time on Nintendo’s platforms due to the network and service limitations.
“Live services on Switch have been a little bit challenging in the past,” he explained.
