Trevor Traub , a producer on Mortal Kombat 11, was recently asked about the Switch version of the game and how it will play. He responded by saying.
“I actually really like the Switch build. I like the Joy-Con controller more than I thought. We’re trying to reach as many people as we possibly can. So we’re going to take that opportunity.”
Traub then noted that the game will receive a slight downgrade on Switch without compromising on the frame rate, noting some geometry has been reduced, though the game is still “really fantastic.”
“There are special geometry reductions that happen to make it work on the Switch. The end product is actually really fantastic. We’re actually not developing it in house; it’s being developed by Shiver Studios. They’re developing it at the same time as us so it’s sort of a co-development. There is no lead SKU.
I can’t wait because I play on Xbox but I will have the Switch version too for practice.”
