RELATED:Though Kellams left PlatinumGames in 2017 following the game’s cancellation and can’t know the true ins and outs of the studio’s plans, he has an undeniable point. How could a game once considered to showcase everything Microsoft’s powerhouse of a console had to offer possibly be made to run on a much less capable system? Sure, 2016’s epic twitch shooter Doom was made to run on the Switch, but that came with a set of marked caveats which separated the experience significantly from its console counterparts.Stranger things have happened, of course. Bayonetta 2 was a Wii U exclusive, of all things, and few could forget the mature yet underwhelming Devil’s Third, which was also exclusive to Nintendo’s 2012 touchpad console.

What’s more, it’s no secret that the Switch has had a dearth of third-party exclusives, and a Scalebound revival tied to the console could serve to boost Nintendo’s already booming sales figures. There’s another major sticking point for those hoping to see the game live on in Switch form, however. Though Scalebound was officially axed by Microsoft back in January of 2017, they still. This means that a Switch conversion would face yet another roadblock in the form of property ownership, and Microsoft probably wouldn’t be eager to make the trade all that worthwhile for Nintendo.Yet, the two gaming giants have been rumored to be working together, and whispers of Microsoft’s Xbox Live have been intriguing and confounding gamers for a few weeks now. Nobody can say with certainty what’s in store for PlatinumGames once-canned video game blockbuster, but it’s hard to imagine the studio going through the effort to release would essentially be a Scalebound demake.

Platinum Games has built itself up as a premier studio for action games and had the gaming world on the edge of their seats with Scalebound, an action title that featured a massive dragon as a companion. It was an Xbox One exclusive when it was announced, but was eventually canceled by Microsoft. If a new rumor is to be believed, Platinum Games could be reviving the game as a Nintendo Switch exclusive.reporter Alex Seedhouse says that he has 'confidence in my sources to report that it is my understanding that Scalebound has been resurrected as a project to be released as a Nintendo Switch exclusive.' Without any information beyond that regard specific details or his sources, there are a few facts that could support this.First and foremost, has been in this almost-identical boat before. The studio had success with the Bayonetta series but ultimately had to depend on contracts signed with publishers. Sega was the main entity that funded the first title, with Nintendo helping out with Bayonetta 2 when Sega stopped due to circumstances outside of the deal.
Nintendo then funded ports of the first game. For Bayonetta 3, Nintendo funded the game in its entirety, which is why it will be a Nintendo Switch exclusive. With, this could put the studio in a similar position to partner with Nintendo.Second, Platinum Games just revealed a new Nintendo Switch exclusive in the most recent Nintendo Direct. Astral Chain is the latest experience from Platinum Games and the first time we've heard from the studio since Microsoft canceled Scalebound.
This doesn't explicitly to anything other than the fact that Platinum Games and Nintendo continue to have a mutually beneficial relationship.Lastly, there's a rumored game that's thought to be dead that Nintendo is reviving. The list of dead games is lengthy, but it makes sense to believe Scalebound is the subject of this rumor considering Platinum Games' relationship with Nintendo. We don't have official confirmation of this and also don't fully know the status of Scalebound in regards to who owns the game's rights. With Bayonetta, Sega and Nintendo own the rights as a pair. Stay tuned to Shacknews for updates on this rumor.
