Freddy's and Quentin's perks are base on mobile now, so what about Switch?

Today the DBD mobile team announced that the perks for Leatherface, Freddy and Quentin will be base on the mobile version. That's great as I know as they can use these perks while the DBD team tries to sort out the licenses, but now there's only one platform that doesn't have all the perks, and that's the Switch. We still don't have Freddy's or Quentin's perks at base and we have to rely on the Shrine to get these perks.

With mobile now having these perks at base, it's time for the devs to do the same for Switch. It's been over half a year since the game released on Switch and there's still no sign of the NOES chapter. I hope that the devs will announce this soon, so that we could get the perks by the mid chapter patch or a hotfix down the line.

    Wait your kidding right? They gave mobile their perks before switch players who payed 60 bucks to play. This is really irratating to hear because i have been wanting freddy and quinten for awhile.

    It's €40 for the base game but yeah it sucks.

    It seems they have trouble negotiating with the license holders to Freddy and Leatherface because they either arrive late to new platforms or are not there at all. I don't blame them for that but they can still give us the perks. Bill's perks were base on console before they added him so why can't they do the same here.

    I think it is due to licensing with the owners of Freddy more than anything else. They have to renegotiate to use him in other platforms. The perks are basekit because the characters are not in the game, but the perks can transfer.

    I am surprised that you don't have them on switch as default perks (like how Bills perks were like on console before he himself arrived there).

    Yeah I understand that. The license changed hands a while back so there would be some problems renegotiating. I don't blame them for that as I understand licenses can be tricky.

    Still, there's no reason to not put the perks on the Switch. They even have unique icons for the Switch version so they wouldn't have to do any art (Fire Up is literally just a random dude instead of Freddy). Unless I'm mistaken, it wouldn't be that hard to put the perks as base, so we're just waiting for the go ahead from the devs before they put it in.

    I am just as confused as you are on that point. Then again, I don't play mobile or switch.

    The Devs don't love us switch players. I think a couple of them have appeared in the shrine? I got Blood Warden from the Shrine. Only perk I ever bought (I have spent Iri Shards for bloodpoints) and I've seen some perks there. Obviously I understand that getting the license to actually put Freddy on the Switch is complicated (it'd still be nice to hear them say they're working on it...) but yeah they could at least do something about the perks.

    I'm just bumping this so this issue can get more exposure. Any response by any devs would be appreciated.
