Wasteland 2: Director’s Cut Coming To Nintendo Switch
Brian Fargo (CEO of inXile Entertainment) is no stranger to post-apocalyptic scenarios. He was the producer of the original Fallout and has just tweeted that Wasteland 2: Director’s Cut is making its way to the Nintendo Switch.
The game has reviewed well with an average score of 86.25% for the PC and 81% for the PS4 on Game Rankings, an aggregate reviews site. The game promises to deliver an old-school western RPG that used to be all the rage on PCs to a new console audience. The hybrid nature of the Switch should make quick sessions all the more possible!
No word on release date yet, but we’ll keep you updated.
