Is Diablo 4 Coming To Nintendo Switch? – Answered

It’s amazing how far mobile (on-the-go) gaming has progressed in the last two decades. When you look back, it somehow seems like portable Tetris and a lot of GameBoy variants were a thing of a not-so-distant age, but harsh reality kicks in quickly, and now we are in possession of powerful portable devices with strong internet connections that we can use to do stuff previously unimaginable even on Desktop PCs. In today’s portable gaming age, Steam Deck and Nintendo Switch are probably the top contenders, and in this article, we’ll see if Nintendo Switch is powerful enough to take on the hardware challenges of running Diablo 4, and if Diablo 4 is officially coming to Nintendo Switch.

Can You Play Diablo 4 on Nintendo Switch?

Allegedly, a YouTube Channel has shown that with the Moonlight App, you should be able to play Diablo 4 on Nintendo Switch. However, that’s still Remote Play, and technically not playing the game directly from your Nintendo Switch. And it’s not really an official way of playing the game, as you would need to tamper with your Switch in not-so-nice ways, so for various reasons, we do not endorse such unsanctioned meddling. This is why we recommend you read about How to Play Diablo 4 on Steam Deck. That seems to be a free-for-all platform.

Will Diablo 4 Be Officially Released on Nintendo Switch?

If you ask me, the chances of Blizzard officially releasing Diablo 4 for Nintendo Switch are very slim currently. Sure, they have Overwatch 2 on Nintendo Switch, they have the Blizzard Arcade Collection, Diablo Prime Evil, Diablo 2 Resurrected, and Diablo 3 Eternal Collection. It took them over half a decade after Diablo 3’s release to release it on Nintendo Switch. We could be seeing a new generation of Switch before Blizzard decides to adapt Diablo 4 for the portable console. Who knows?
