Meant to post this here versus the official game announcement thread.
Rumor has it from a pretty solid source that From Software has Dark Souls 3 running on the Switchand are happy with the performance.
According to one of our sources, From Software has Dark Souls 3 running on the Nintendo Switch with a level of performance they are happy with. They have not committed to releasing it yet, but discussions internally at the company have discussed the financial viability of re releasing the main three Dark Souls titles on the Switch with their DLC bundled in.
Development on a Switch port has been underway for several months via a small team, with From Software waiting to see initial sales data before committing to producing ports. The plan would be for a Switch rerelease of Dark Souls 3 if greenlit to release the same day as PS4, Xbox One and PC receive versions with all DLC included.
Hopefully, provided the sales data looks favorable, that last sentence implies they would release Dark Souls 3 with all DLC for Switch the same day as PS4, Xbox One, etc.
This is sounding positive. I would have to give strong consideration to picking up one or all three of these games. If this is a sign of the kind of games we can expect on Switch, then this is going to be a successful platform for Nintendo.
