Depends what games you mean by third party support. Demanding western AAA games will not be coming to Switch. New Battlefield or Battlefront, Fallout 5 or TES VI, Mass Effect or Dragon Age, Witcher 4, GTA 6. These big power-hungry games won't be coming to Switch. Doom was a blessing, but even that type of third-party game won't be coming to the Switch in a couple of years. The Switch's power deficit is only going to become a bigger isssue for these AAA western developers with time. |
Third party support will definitely be bigger next year compared to this year. Already confirmed for next year:
- Project Octopath Traveller
- Travis Strikes Back: No More Heroes
- Shin Megami Tensei V
- Mega Man 11
- Valkyria Chronicles 4
- Dragon Quest XI
- Dragon Quest Builders 1 & 2
- Wolfenstein 2
- Hollow Knight
- Inside
- Starlink: Battle for Atlas
And this is probably just the tip of the iceberg. Namco is heavily rumoured to announce a bunch of Switch games very soon. Dragonball Fighter Z, Dark Souls Remastered and Soul Calibur VI all seem likely.
