So... why is it that BHVR has no plans for a Switch 2 version of DbD? I find it hard to believe that they lack a Switch 2 devkit by this point nor would it be that significant of a loss to develop for. In fact, I would go as far to say that the mouse controls the Switch 2 uses for games like Warframe and Metroid Prime 4 would make a potential Switch 2 version of Dead by Daylight the go-to console for the system. Is built-up frustrations over Nintendo's approval process the reason we aren't seeing a Switch 2 version yet? Because every other publisher (including fellow Canadian studio and publisher DE) don't seem like they have any complicatinf issues at all when it comes to the approval process.

I am extremely frustrated with the way BHVR is handling Dead by Daylight on the Switch platform. Between sidelining patches for the Switch platform to not doing their best to pursue a Switch 2 version that'd revitalize the userbase on Nintendo systems, it feels like they are purposefully trying to only get by on Nintendo platforms with the barest of minimums. Of course, I could be wrong. Maybe they want to do a Switch 2 version/upgrade but have no plans because their resources are stretched out thin with working on many projects throughout the year. But all I'll say is that making a Switch 2 upgrade of DbD is one of the most free ways to earn good will not just with the Nintendo community, but also with the DbD community in general.

Am I wrong for expressing my frustrations over this here?

    Im a Switch User for DBD and it feels like the game is beginning to crumble/ fall apart because of the lack of updates. The hair bug is still a thing and its a eye sore.

    I have a feeling they will have to Discontinue the Switch version at some point. Im not trying to be negative but its just a handful just to play the game.

    The Game constantly: has performance issues, lack of updates, graphics are breaking every update and so on. Its becoming unplayable at this point.

    And there not being plans for a Switch 2 version only makes me think they are most definitely possibly Discontinuing The Switch Verson of DBD.

    I play Warframe on Switch and it feels great. No issues, updates and a Dev base that actually listens.

    Thats says alot

    Please release an updated version for Switch 2! I agree the game would probably play best on the console with the mouse controls. It is the most popular console in the world right now. Just do it already!!!

    I agree that we need a switch 2 version of this game, with better performance and graphics.
