Developer ZA/UM Confirms Switch Version For Disco Elysium Is In Development

To refresh from this past October, developer ZA/UM launched top-down RPG Disco Elysium and the title swiftly took the video game community by storm as the game was fast to grow in popularity. Not too long that following December, the month old game became a recipient for Fresh Indie Game, Best Independent Game, Best Narrative, and Best Role-Playing Game at the 2019 Game Awards.

And while the game swiftly picked up traction to being one of the most influential titles in such a short amount of time, it was suspected that different version for the game would follow suit later in the coming future. And it looks that time is already upon us as the developer disclosed a port for Nintendo Switch is on the way.

In an interview on the BBC 5live’s “Game On” Podcast, the game’s Art Director Alexander Rostov share that the team is working on the game for the Switch.

This interview is, at this very moment, interrupting me from writing up design documentation for the user interface and input systems for the Switch port.

Rostov while joking about his time away from work slips the fact that a Nintendo Switch version Disco Elysium is in development. Prior to the interview, the RPG was confirmed a respected version for both Xbox One alongside PlayStation 4 with an unspecified release aimed sometime in 2020. As for Nintendo Switch, that has yet to be let out of the bag until just recently.

Regarding further detail on the arrival on the Nintendo Switch version, no other information was spared on the topic. Even more, there still is no word regarding the remaining console versions for Disco Elysium either even after the interview on the BBC-hosted podcast. Fans anticipating to play on remaining consoles will have to sit patiently until the versions are properly announced.

Have you played Disco Elysium or do you plan to later when it arrives to consoles?

Disco Elysium is out now for PC; listed to arrive for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch on 2020.
