Skong.....
Lol didn't happen, zero mention
Well, there's always next event. See you in April 2nd.
Please be real..
It's real, and it's happening, but I wouldn't count on hearing about it again until the next Microsoft presentation. I'd like to see some Mina the Hollower at this Direct though.
I think Switch 2 is more likely. Which run their sizzle reel in April?
I obviously don't know their financials, but I am going to assume a month or two isn't going to change things all that much for Team Cherry.
So they can either launch for Switch 1 (and everything else) and be "just another game". Or they can launch for Switch 2 (and everything else) and be the ONLY game. Plenty of "nindie" games did exactly that during the, quite frankly disastrous, first year or so of the Switch 1 and it was amazing for their studios.
Launching as part of the XBOX Boy or whatever MS calls their handheld is also an option. But MS is almost definitely going to take advantage of the albatross that was the Series S to have significant cross compatibility.
I think no switch 2.
We already have a date for that.
But let's see!
Last we saw Silksong, it was part of an Xbox marketing deal; that's all I'm basing my hunch on. I doubt that deal is easily broken, and Silksong can write its own ticket with any marketing partner.
