@DavidEastwickUK @Alfray_Stryke It will need an update as we get the console edition to further patches.
But, the porting process started at 1.7, as that was the version we had available at that time, and that's what the UI was developed for. :)
@ShalahAllier @Banto64015625 @mrulean We'll see what the team has planned tomorrow! :)
@ofnobleblood We do love Switch as a platform and you can see that @Cities_PDX is there already, but when it comes to Stellaris, we need to do all this in baby steps. Once we have PS4 and Xbox One versions out, we'll reevaluate and will see if Switch is viable. :)
@ProudBavaria No idea but we want to see you try!
@phen77 We hope the demand is there and we'll be able to support the console edition for as long as we do the PC. :)
@Alfray_Stryke We'll keep that in mind! ;)
@ProudBavaria No. The PC edition won't support this UI right now. Aside from just translating the UI to the previous patch, there was a lot of backend work done with the console that would make the process challenging.
Maybe in the future but that's a big unknown at the moment.
@MaleNiple No promises right now. It wouldn't be as simple as just porting this UI to PC, as both editions run on different versions at the moment.
Time will tell. :)
@Alfray_Stryke It's something we'd like to have on principle, but it's also something that could be very resource hungry, as this UI isn't fit for the 2.2 version of the game atm. We'd essentially need to start rebuilding it for the PC branch now.
@Banto64015625 @mrulean Yep! Our devs are getting rekt by the Khan right now. :)
@Astrolys 2/2 @Cities_PDX also release on PS4 and Xbox One only at first.
This is our first grand strategy port, so there are still lots of unknowns and we'd hate to give definitive statements on which we'd need to backtrack later. :)
@Astrolys 1/2 The only fair answer to give here is that there are no plans for a Switch port right now, but we give ourselves room to change our minds. We'll see if there is wiggle room to further optimize the game (which would be necessary with Switch) and if there is demand...
@ukzombiekilla February 26th! :)
Curious how controls and interface will work with the console edition of our game? :) This screenshot might illuminate some of the questions!
In addition, we recommend you read this article:
@LiteralScumbag We welcome this non-reply! <3
@ThoRodrigues3 @Kugsen We welcome all support! Thank you! <3
@HarryLuoBf It's digital only.
@metadarknal1 @TARDIS_Junkie Thank you! Hope you enjoy the console edition!
@Karallon @mrulean Just a part of the learning experience. :)
@Flendomo You can see how it performs in the gameplay videos we posted. :)
So far so good!
