Hmmm, haven't seen that being how it usually works, but maybe
Maybe they'll announce a new partnership exclusive like Marvel UA3 again.
Doesn't it feel weird to call The Outer Worlds "witchcraft" though? Especially with him mentioning The Witcher 3? Isn't the Witcher 3 considered to be the most crazy game coming to Switch.
I guess we'll find out at Gamescom or in a Nintendo Direct. I feel like if he's seen it already then maybe it is The Outer Worlds

My guesses as to the unannounced game, from most to least likely -
Metro something-or-other, or another THQ Nordic thing (assuming it's Gamescom related)
The Outer Wilds/Vampyr (AKA the dude didn't know it was already announced)
Sekiro?
GTAV (dunno if I'd describe it as witchcraft considering how old it is but maybe it being a GTA on Switch could be seen as witchcraft)
MGSV (see above)
Final Fantasy XIV (sure it's not graphically amazing but it'd be a feat)
Resident Evil 2/Devil May Cry V (I could see Capcom trying to get the RE Engine working on Switch, but RE7 being cloud-based throws that off)
Monster Hunter World (see above, but MT Framework)
Microsoft game, Scalebound is back baby
Kingdom Hearts 3/Final Fantasy VII Remake (they're UE4)
Final Fantasy XV (has to come packaged with a micro SD)
Death Stranding

The Witcher 3 proves that the only limits on what games can be ported to Switch are resources and the devs/publishers' tolerance for low resolutions and/or iffy framerates.
Metro: Last Light Redux was datamined to be coming to Switch in the same way Red Faction and some other THQ game was, but Last Light definitely isn't witchcraft. Two people decided to redact the game, and I doubt both of them would have missed a "witchcraft" port that was announced for Switch. Death Stranding lol
I primarily meant Metro Exodus, with the other two being ported too most likely
also death stranding was a joke, I know that ain't happenin
My left-field guess would be No Man's Sky. I don't doubt that Switch could possibly run the PSVR-level version of that game at least. Could be wrong technically though. I'd love to see it.
Most likely Red Dead 2. Only thing comes close to The Witcher 3 in term of wtf-ness. And it could be Vern's game, we all thought it's GTA5 but "THE game" being RDR2 instead wouldn't be the most surprising thing.
Don't forget RDR2 visuals got a downgrade couple of months ago. Maybe that's for testing The Switch port.
It's like water and oil.Predicting metroid for the game awards
As good as Halo is, it doesn't elevate the switch's year given it's an old game, I think
Well...what if that "Dracula Castle Siege" thing was a) Castlevania and b) Switch exclusive?
Konami already made more than a few interesting deals with Nintendo, so I could see it happening. And it's a similar kind of "mid-tier" announcement that would make waves.
Just please make sure someone from the Metroid staff is still on hand to grade them on level design!
All I can just say is that we just need to be patient for a while longer. Capcom's focus is going to be on Iceborne for a while longer, and then they'll eventually want to segue into another MH marketing cycle soon after.
Maybe we'll get that announcement this year, but I wouldn't be surprised if they kept us waiting til Spring 2020, with a planned launch for Q3/Q4 2020 in all territories.
This is a place for speculation, not logical reasoning!
For real though that's my best case scenario "realistically".
Hmm, might just be me and might be inspired by recent events, but "can't say cause the lawyers" suggests to me that it might be take-two. My guess is Outer Worlds (this isn't announced for 2019 for Switch, and furthermore a gameplay demo would be embargoed). Dark horse bet is RDR2.
It was confirmed on the Nintendo UK site as a 2019 release IIRC.
Some checkmarks on Twitter were talking about a [REDACTED] "witchcraft" Switch game
Damn wtf I just stepped in this thread and now totally think Bayonetta 3 is coming out this year. Goddamn I can't wait
The witchcraft game is Metroid Prime Trilogy and it's witchcraft because of it's graphics that have been remade by Bluepoint, bring possibly the best looking thing on the system.
Heard it here first!

He said lawyers, not hired thugs who find out where you live.
World of Warcraft has never been on consoles and probably never will. The Warcraft III remaster would be neat if they can figure out a good controller layout.
Anything under a strict NDA deserves some excitement, I think. Otherwise why bother keeping it as a big secret.
Every port of a non-indie game for Switch is a big deal, just like The Outer Worlds or Biomutant.
It's probably Doom Eternal but they're not allowed to say they've seen it so he redacted it.
Never.
So you thought they were talking about Astral Chain?
Damnit, that just makes this more enticing!
I mean, at this point DOOM Eternal or anything in these lines shouldn't be too much of a shock seeing how Panic Button made past ports; we know what to expect. The Witcher 3, however, was this kind of shock;
but honeslty I can't think anything absurd coming now.. GTAV certainly wouldn't be any "witchcraft", for exemple.. neither would be Nier: Automata, so I got nothing
