Earlier this month, it's been confirmed that Warframe, the popular game developed by Digital Extremes, is going to be released on Nintendo Switch in the future. And it seems like there's the chance that it will come with cross-platform play.
Speaking with Tech Radar, Digital Extremes Studio Manager Sheldon Carter stated that the team is currently exploring all options for people to play on and with the Nintendo Switch. Another rep added that cross-play is currently under investigation and that it's something the company would like to do.
Since announcing Warframe coming to the Switch, we've received an incredible amount of positive reception from both our community and Nintendo players. We’re exploring all options for people to play on and with the Nintendo Switch.
Carter also confirmed that 1-time account migration could be available on Nintendo Switch once the game launches.
Previously, when we’ve launched on other consoles, we’ve supported 1-time account migrations so that would be our starting goals for Switch as well.
Warframe is now out on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in all regions.
