The Blackangel Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 I’ve been seeing articles and reports saying that Hatred is going to be released on Switch some time this year. Has anyone else seen this? At the moment the only place to get the game is on Steam. I have it there, but if I could get it portable, I would love it. I’m hoping these reports aren’t bunk, but I’m not sure whether I should put any hope in this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazycrab Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 They annonced that the game is coming to the Switch back in April but there hasn't been much said about it since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shagger Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 (edited) I find this unlikely. Hatred is I think one of only two or three games released to get an "A" rating from the ESRB, and A rated games allowed on the eShop. "A" rated games are not allowed to be displayed in stores, so a physical only release doesn't really make sense either, assuming Nintendo would even allow that anyway. This also isn't exactly striking the pan while it's hot. The game is five years old, so this just doesn't add up. I would be cool if it did happen and would love to be proven wrong, but I don't think this will happen. Edited August 25, 2020 by Shagger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted August 17, 2020 Author Share Posted August 17, 2020 No official release date has been announced, but it looked promising. Most likely a DDL only. But @Shagger is right. It’s one of only 3 games to get an AO rating. The other two were Manhunt 2, and Thrill Kill. But Thrill Kill was never officially released. There are bootlegs of it all over, but it was scrapped just before launch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane99 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 From what I see, the devs announced they were making a port for the Switch, but nothing new has since come out of that. I found this article below: https://screenrant.com/hatred-game-nintendo-switch-violence-controversy-why-release/ I remember people going crazy about this game, saying it was made to just be violent, which it was, but the violence from what I recall, wasn't as crazy as people were expecting. And supposedly the game wasn't even that good to begin with. I have a feeling it won't release on the switch. But, we shall see I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted August 25, 2020 Author Share Posted August 25, 2020 I enjoy the hell out of the game, simply because of the violence. And in actuality, it's more violent than people expected. The majority couldn't stomach it. The only ones that could were those of us that are misanthropic beyond what most people can imagine except other misanthropes.

skyfire Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I think it's out based on the gameplay that are on youtube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted September 17, 2020 Author Share Posted September 17, 2020 I can’t find it in the eShop. Maybe it’s just not announced yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
