Everyone look shocked.

The dream of Steep on Switch is officially dead.

In response to a fan inquiry, the official Steep Twitter account indicated that development of the Switch version was "stopped".

Hey @RJISAGAMER! We are wholly dedicated to supporting the live game, and made the decision to stop Steep development on the Nintendo Switch platform to focus on bringing new live content and challenges to Steep players instead. We’ll have more exciting news to share soon.

Assuming the stop is permanent only two games announced during the January 2017 Switch reveal event do not have release dates: Shin Megami Tensei V and Travis Strikes Again.

Well, 3rd party support on Nintendo consoles is always a bit of a slippery slope. It could be all downhill from here with the big Western AAA 3rd party ports.

Tip your waiter, folks. We could do this all night.
