<p>Earlier this week, <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/no_more_heroes">No More Heroes</a></strong> and <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/no_more_heroes_2_desperate_struggle">No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle</a></strong> got announced for the Nintendo Switch.</p>
<p>Once word spread that Engine Software was <a class="external" href="https://twitter.com/suda_51/status/1321815366641750017">behind the Switch ports</a> – the same company that brought the cult-hit action-adventure <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/gamecube/killer7">Killer7</a></strong> to the <a class="external" href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/868520/killer7/">PC</a> in 2018, fans started wondering about the possibility of it being released on Nintendo’s hybrid platform.</p>
<p>Nintendo Life spoke to Engine Software’s owner & VP of development, Ruud van de Moosdijk, and asked if there was any chance of a Killer7 Switch port happening in the near future. To Engine Software’s knowledge – a Switch version is <em>not</em> in the works right now, but if Suda51 wants to change that, the talented port experts are happy to listen.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>“As far as we know a Killer7 Switch version is currently not in the works. We have at least not discussed this with Suda-San. But who knows what the future brings? We have our hands full with Scott Pilgrim, TOCS4 and Ys IX but if Suda-San wants to work with us again we will of course always listen!”</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote></blockquote>
<p>This follows on from a statement Ruud <a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2020/08/turns_out_engine_software_isnt_bringing_killer7_to_the_nintendo_switch">provided Nintendo Life with in August</a>, explaining how a Nintendo Switch version of Killer7 was “never” originally in development under Engine Software.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>“<em>It was never in development.</em> When we started working with Suda-San on the PC version, it was an on-going discussion during development, but as I said – in the end, the decision was made not to work on a Switch version. But since it was part of the initial discussion it was still internally listed as “Killer7 – PC/Switch project” which is where the confusion came from.”</p>
</blockquote>
<p>So, what can we take away from all of this? Once again – Engine Software is <em>not</em> currently working on a port of Killer7 for Switch. If there is a port in development, it would mean this company is seemingly not involved. And if such a port <em>isn’t</em> in the works (yet) and Suda51 wants to team up with Engine Software again, it is “of course” happy to listen.</p>
