In the interview above, Diablo III: Eternal Collection Senior Producer Pete Stilwell talked a good deal about the work that went into bringing the game to Switch. Stilwell also once again brought up the team's decision to not include touch controls, but this time elaborated on the matter.

"We did experiment with touch, but decided not to go with it. When we had done the work to bring the game to console, touch wasn't a thing. So it's really well-designed to run with the thumb sticks and the buttons, so we stuck with that. But if you take a Joy-Con off and are just using a single Joy-Con, which we do support, you use flick to roll, because you don't have a second thumb stick."
