    Not a question, but just want to wish you all good luck and success for your release. It will be a day-one purchase for me.

  2. Own_Camel8993

    I hope you guys won’t cancel the multiplayer mode like you did with Grid Autosport.

  3. TAway_Derp

    How difficult was it to work with the Switch’s hardware? Any clever hacks made for the sake of maintaining game performance?

  4. Any plans for the second game at some point as well? My brother wants me to get into the series, is there any type of multiplayer?

  5. murder_1

    Were there any major hurdles to overcome due to the limitations of Switch’s hardware, and if so what was the solution?

  6. 25thNightStyle

    I understand this game can be gory. Are there any settings to lessen that?

  7. REGELBEAST

    Is it 720p in handheld and 1080p docked? And how is the framerate?

  8. mattmakesshoes

    I’ve never played Company of Heroes but am a huge RTS fan. I have two questions:

    * Which other RTS game(s) would you say Company of Heroes is most similar to?
    * Is there any in game tracking and/or rankings for completing scenarios? Whether it’s skirmishes, campaign, or anything else.

  9. abusbeepbeep

    Can you talk a little bit about how you adapted this to a console? I’ve played this a fair amount on PC and an curious to see how things were adapted to work with a controller. My preorder is already in for this game but I’m sure this is a question others will have also

  10. Yansothebear

    would we be able to pause the game for doing actions? because RTS games like this without a mouse is real difficult imo… also, im playing on switch lite, how small is the text?

  11. Comfortable-Buy9007

    Any plans for mods integration / Community maps ? Company of Heroes is full of great comunity stuff like the eastern front mod.

  12. Odd-Conversation1208

    Going from Alien Isolation to Company of Heroes, how was it working with Sega, if you ever did meet with them? Did they like being hands on or did they seem more optimistic after your success with the Alien port?

  13. 25thNightStyle

    Will there be options to control text size for console visibility? It is the biggest struggle with switch games sometimes.

  14. IdoNintendo

    What did you use to test the games?
    (Dev kit? Rooted Switch? PC emulating?).

  15. Dredd907

    Day one buy for me and thanks for putting great ports out – I loved Alien Isolation!!

  16. Weetabix076

    Super excited to play this and any other RTS you guys port to Switch( and other consoles)!

  17. Michael-the-Great

    Seeing your detailed replies makes me really think you guys love doing your ports and your ports done right. This wasn’t on my radar till this week, but I’m totally in now. Any chance for a physical?

  18. Kaquillar

    I don’t want to ask you anything, you guys are doing a great job, keep porting good games to switch/phones and take my money!

  19. Any chance there will be a physical version of the game on switch?

  20. Comfortable-Buy9007

    Do you have the time when the game will be released in eu stores ?

  21. justwonderingbro

    Is there any touchscreen or joy con motion control support? I feel like it would be a missed opportunity to have a true RTS on switch that is lacking such features.

  22. sviunapad

    Sudden Strike 4 is much better than Company of Heroes. Too bad it’s not available on the Switch.

  23. AnselmoKiller

    do you have some news about switch 2 dev kits?

  24. CS__1989

    What do you think about mobile gaming, I mean on smartphones, do you think is going to take off ? I’ve been seen many google titles landed on smartphones the one which surprised me the most was alien isolation

  25. GissoniC34

    Congrats on the game!

    Any intention in having brazilian portuguese as one of the languages in the game?

    I would be very happy to throw my hat at the opportunity to translate it if needed. Please feel free to inquire if you have the intent.

  26. BabySealOfDoom

    I have been trying to remember this game for ages! Played when I was in middle school.

  27. galacten

    I played the nuts out of this on my iPad (not to mention when it came out way back in the day) and it played so great with touch controls that I’m excited to see how it feels with the joycons. Only one more day!

  28. throwaway384938338

    Are you going to add the switch control scheme to the steam version for steam deck users?

  29. Theoderic8586

    Going to hold out for a physical. Hopefully it happens.

  30. SteelDiver

    Any chance of a physical copy for Grid Autosport?

  31. I wish physical versions of grid autosport and CoH exists. Thanks for awesome games.

  32. arturomartin

    Nothing to ask, you guys are amazing at your craft. Just wanted to say that I feel a tad old, as I just found that the first game I bought from you was in… 2004 😱

  33. Hi folks, sorry to be late but I just wanted to thank you for all the effort you all put in the Switch ports, having something like Alien Isolation looking like that on Switch was trully magical, you have some incredible programmers on your team, cheers!
