Divinity: Original Sin 2 - Definitive Edition will not be getting co-op on Switch

Over in the PC version of Divinity: Original Sin 2 - Definitive Edition, you can grab up to three friends for some local co-op action. On the Switch version, you'll have to keep your multiplayer to online. Holding out hope that an update will come to add in local co-op? Developer Sean Ridgeley has taken to Twitter to say that won't be the case, nothing that they'd "have to make too much compromises to get that to work fluently," so it' not happening.
