Never heard of Ubisoft Pune. Are they a new studio?

Guessing Switch comes later based on Ubi's mixed signals. Sure looks like a Switch game...

I'd be surprised if it itsn't coming to the Switch. The graphics look mediocre, at best. Nothing that the Switch couldn't handle.

Maybe they're saving the announcement for a Partner's Showcase...?

According to this tweet, it's also next-gen... at their launch? PS5 delayed until next year?

Showcase direct or whatever its called, will get announced then surely because a random twitter drop is just a bit weird

I think Zhuge's post implies a late port

Its like 2003 all over again. PoP TSoT released on PS2 first, with the Gamecube and Xbox versions releasing in February/March.

imo this is a steep type situation where they're hedging their bets on 1) if it sells well enough on other platforms 2) if they can get it to run well on switch

they probably don't want to formally announce it until they're happy with both of those conditions

If it is coming to next gen and Switch then I don't understand why they just haven't announced it already with the reveal :\

That double dip money.

Burnout Paradise was ported alongside of other platforms but EA waited a year before releasing it on Switch for two console owners to rebuy the game on Switch. Same here.

Wouldn't it be weird to come out on switch in January? I don't think Nintendo is having another direct (I know they said no minis, but I expect no generals as well) and it seems sort of weird to announce a switch version at TGA. Unless Nintendo does an early Jan mini I feel like it's a very strange date
