GN Version 5.0

Panic Button has been a major player when it comes to the Switch. If you have a high-profile title and you want to bring it to Switch, Panic Button is the company to talk to. In an interview with Nintendo Life, Panic Button’s Technical Director, Andy Boggs, discusses what it's like bringing these big-name games to Switch.

"The bar has been set so high for what's possible for the Switch, and so optimizing games for performance and making sure things still look great in handheld mode is always pretty hard. There's still just something magical about having this gameplay experience on your TV that you can transition to a handheld and take with you. We see that during development, and it's still exciting every time."
