Another update from the rumor mill concerning Nintendo and Microsoft’s relationship and what 2019 holds. We reported previously on rumors that suggested Ori and the Blind Forest and Cuphead are in the process of coming to the Nintendo Switch alongside xCloud and GamePass integration.
Gematsu threw their own information online today. While outlining what has been reported so far, their piece of this puzzle puts more weight to this becoming a reality:
“Gematsu has also heard that a Switch version of Ori and the Blind Forest has appeared in at least one United Kingdom wholesale database under the distribution of THQ Nordic, which has worked with Microsoft in the past to publish PC titles on Steam.”
Yes, at the end of the day this is still a rumor. With so many coming in though, the argument for its validity grows stronger with each new piece of information.
