Treyarch Says No Plans For Call Of Duty: Black Ops 4 On Switch
Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 was revealed the other day for the expected slate of consoles, though Switch owners may have been expecting some form of the game to also hit that system.
In recent months, a number of Twitter users had been claiming inside knowledge of Black Ops 4, suggesting or outright saying that the game would also be coming to Switch. Not so, says Treyarch senior producer Yale Miller. In an interview with Twinfinite, the site directly asked Miller if there are plans to bring any form of Black Ops 4 to the Switch.
"No, there is not,” responds Miller immediately.
Unless Nintendo has plans to announce it themselves at a later date, that answer seems fairly definitive. You can find our write up on Call of Duty: Black Ops 4's various modes from the event right here.

Our Take
This isn't surprising, but I did kind of wonder if the de-emphasized single player might better lend itself to porting to Switch. Doesn't seem like it's worth doing for Activision, though, which is still bringing Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy next month.
