Hopefully it's true. A GameStop employee listed a switch version alongside the other versions and someone took pics (I'll upload when I get home). But if anyone visits a GameStop anytime soon and see if their store lists one also, it could make it more likely then.

Maybe we'll get official confirmation or not in the bo4 reveal on Thursday May 17.

reset the clock

ASleepingMonkey · May 14, 2018

Only way I see myself playing this game if it doesn't have a campaign. Im an avid fan of MP but SP has always been what hooks me.

Roldan · May 14, 2018

another prediction, yes?

TheBaldwin · May 14, 2018

Wouldn't surprise me. Activisions pretty good at supporting multiple platforms.

Deleted member 19702 · May 14, 2018

COD games for Wii U had later announcements as well. No surprise if this happens again.

TheGreatMightyPoo · May 14, 2018

I hope so, Treyarch is cool.

Braaier · May 14, 2018

That would be a nice get for the switch. Not for me but cool nonetheless

We missed out on bo3, but hopefully we get it on this. I wouldn't be surprised if another device team handles the switch version if we get one. The Wii/Wii U team got disbanded after Ghosts was made for Wii U back in 2013.

I didn't expect it not to.

Was made by a different dev on a schedule so tight the game doesn't work without a day one patch who had no prior experience with the series. And I loved it until I got an Xbox One even with that.

No way Activision will treat a Switch port the same way, usually it's handled in house anyway for Nintendo stuff. I half expect it to be a different game given the hardware though unless the engine is the same (their version, not WWII engine)

Soundtrack2chaos · May 14, 2018

This is kool, I have no intention of buying it on anything else I own but on the switch I might just play it.

The current rumor is that we'll have cod bo4 and cod battle royale, and they are separate games.

ThereAreFourNaan · May 14, 2018

Even if it does come out, this is the one with no campaign, right?

And (if it exists) the Switch version would be somewhere in between these two. I don't really see the problem for being able to answer the Call of Duty, while answering the call of doody.

A newssite that compiles popular videogame shooter info like cod and battlefield. I wonder if they were the ones that recieved the rumor about 4 and battle royale directly.

Deleted member 249 · May 14, 2018

I can see Battle Royale, but not BLOPS 4 itself.

Frame rate is probably more interesting. Another facet of the last gen Black Ops 3 ports was that the frame rate was a far cry from the series' typical 60fps~ standard.

chrisPjelly · May 14, 2018

I still don't understand how a Battle Royale game would be (seemingly) easier to port to the Switch than the normal multiplayer

Cinemikel · May 14, 2018

Probably be the Battle Royal game like rumored

I know 360 was 30fps. Was it a stable 60fps on xbone and ps4?

If they can get it at 720p docked with 60fps, I'll be happy. As long as it looks better than ghosts on Wii u. Hopefully the CPU isn't too much of a factor for this game.

Just wish there was a story to this game. Hope Battlefield delivers, but not holding my breath lol

Deleted member 36622 · May 14, 2018

I won't even watch their reveal event to avoid the disappointment.

valinthyne · May 14, 2018

It wouldn't be hard to slide an insert into an empty switch case to screw with people.

AxkilAvenger · May 14, 2018

Nintendo Voice Chat people made it sound like it's a lock on Switch. They didn't give any reasons mind you but the dude that said it sounded pretty confident

Ah, so it was previously announced. Shinkawa is a great grab for them, but didn't they already do a shooter spinoff for Front Mission and it wasn't very good?

Dark Ninja · May 14, 2018

Does Switch have a game that has to be online all the time or its game modes are primarily online? How does that work when you're traveling in portable mode? The only one I kind think of is Splatoon 2

It has DQX, which is a straight up MMO, and it's about to get a streaming-only version of PSO2. If that isn't capable, I don't know what is.

So when you're not in a wi-fi area or somehow connected to the internet I don't know how you would do it in portable mode traveling....Im assuming those games are unplayable.

Pokemaniac · May 14, 2018

It could happen. Activision has a history of burying Nintendo ports of CoD.

If you mean FM Alternative then I haven't played it. This is supposed to be a very different game. It plays like a mix of MGS and armored core with survival mechanics.

DeeDogg · May 14, 2018

Well that was fast to shoot down

Yeah, I'm not really sure there's a way to get around that aside from having a hotspot on you at all times, but that comes with the territory.

banter · May 14, 2018

What a shame that it's not true, BLOPS 2 on Wii U was great though... Perfect no screen peeping couch multiplayer and you could couch multiplayer online too. People who used wii remotes were insanely good too. The last good COD IMO (haven't tried WWII).

I was actually referring to Evolved, but you get my meaning.
