It’s already done, actually
After 800 million years in development (all numbers approximate),Chasmfinally released in late July on PC, PS4, and Vita.It was pretty dang good! This procedurally-generated metroidvania was a success, even in a launch window that was unusuallyclogged upwithothermetroidvanias.
Chasmisn’t done yet, though. Developer Bit Kid has confirmed that a Switch port is in the works. Actually, it’s basically done.Chasmhas already been submitted to Nintendo for certification. Bit Kid estimates it’ll be ready to release “in the next couple months or so.”
Chasmis a natural fit on Switch for a couple of reasons. First, every indie is tripping over themselves to port to Switch becausethey’re still selling ridiculously wellon Nintendo’s hybrid console. But, also, Switch is an similar-ish amalgamation of some of the platformsChasmhas already launched on. It has the traditional console features like a PS4 and it has the portable capabilities of Vita.Chasmon Switch felt nearly expected, and it’ll almost definitely be a sure success.
