God Eater 3 didn't do so hot. Dropping the Vita version from these games is leading to very little conversion to PS4/NSW versions. Can still be salvaged from Asian and Western sales, but at least it didn't flop completely.

I'm 99.9% positive GE3 will be ported to the Switch. Hopefully it can do well there as God Eater was initially a portable franchise. Sticking to PS4 only doesn't make much sense.

It also thrived in the absence of Monster Hunter.  PS4 HAS Monster Hunter.  And MHW has a much larger budget and it definitely shows in the presentation so not only is GE3 having to compete with MH, it is getting shown up.  Going PS4 only was very foolish given the history of the franchise.

Unfortunately, porting it to Switch will probably not help now.  It will be old news and for midtier franchises that's very detrimental.  It won't hurt, but this should have had a Switch version from the start.
