<p>The Switch is home of many fighting games, but one series that hasn’t been released on the hybrid platform yet is Bandai Namco’s SoulCalibur series. Last year, <strong><a class="external" href="http://www.pushsquare.com/games/ps4/soulcalibur_vi">SoulCalibur VI</a></strong> producer Motohiro Okubo said he was <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2018/08/producer_of_soulcalibur_vi_open_to_game_on_switch_if_its_actually_possible">open to the idea</a> of the new entry coming to the Switch, if it was possible, and now in a more recent interview with the <a class="external" href="https://soulcaliburcommunity.com/evo-japan-2020-kayane-interviews-soulcalibur-vi-producer-and-director/">SoulCailburCommunity</a> he’s revealed the situation hasn’t really changed:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>If I have to answer seriously, I think I remember telling you previously that we’re not sure we can port the game to Nintendo Switch. I said we have to examine and look into that, and well… When I said that, I didn’t know if we’d have a Season 2 yet and now that we have one, I’ll be totally honest by saying we didn’t have time to look into that. So basically, the situation hasn’t changed much.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Here’s his previous response, in the interview dating back to August 2018:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><em>At the moment there is no development for Switch at all. I understand that the Switch is a very successful hardware, and of course if there is a possibility, then it would be great to do it.</em></p>
</blockquote>
<p>The last SoulCalibur game released on a Nintendo platform was <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/wii/soulcalibur_legends">SoulCalibur Legends</a></strong> in 2007 for the Wii. Before then there was <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/gamecube/soulcalibur_ii">SoulCalibur II</a></strong> on the GameCube, featuring the exclusive fighter Link from <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nes/legend_of_zelda">The Legend of Zelda</a></strong> series. <em>Would you like to see the latest SoulCalibur game come to Switch?
