Can Monster Hunter World see a Switch release?

As we have seen pretty much this entire generation, Capcom doesn't like to do late ports and often just keeps their games exclusive from day 1. Otherwise we would have seen MH on Vita :P.

RE Revelations 1 + 2 as well as Mega Man Legacy Collection say hi.

There was a leak before MH World was even announced that Sony had paid to keep it off Switch, and details from that leak matched the actual game when it was announced. Coupled with the technical challenges (even standard XB1 struggles with MH World and it's more than 3x as powerful as Switch in console  mode), safe to say it won't be coming to Switch. Best hope for MH Nintendo fans is that Capcom goes full multiplat on the next entry, PS4/XB1/Switch, with a dedicated Switch version with toned back graphics.

True, i remember that leak and a lot of the info on it matched what we got, so im willing to believe the part about Sony keeping the Switch out of the platforms for the game.

I'm rather willing to believe that the development started long before the Switch was explained to Capcom. Sony would have to consider the Switch a serious competitor to make such a move.

Either way, a port of MHW is highly unlikely imo.
