Cyberpunk 2077 will "probably not" be released on Nintendo Switch

CD Projekt Red has confirmed its upcoming sci-fi RPG Cyberpunk 2077 will “probably not” be coming to Nintendo Switch.

In a wide-ranging interview with Gamespot, CD Projekt Red’s John Mamais said that while the team hadn’t even considered a game like the Witcher 3 “would be possible on Switch”, it was unlikely it’s upcoming RPG would also port over to Nintendo Switch.

“Who would have thought a game like The Witcher 3 would be possible on Switch, so who knows?” Mamais said. “I guess we’ll see, if we decide to put it on the Switch, if we can do it. Probably not.”

Mamais also opened up on his views about microtransactions and whether or not the studio’s generous DLC program for The Witcher 3 might be replicated for Cyberpunk 2077.

“I think it’s a bad idea to do microtransactions after you release a game,” he said. “It seems like it’s very profitable, though. It’s probably a hard decision for the guy that runs the business to decide if we should do it or not. But if everyone hates it, why would we do something like that and lose the goodwill of our customers?
