It is not uncommon for an even different software house to be involved in porting a third-party title to the console of the big N , which takes care of the adaptation and optimization, as in the case of Panic Button for Apex Legend . However, this time, as confirmed by Activision itself to Polygon colleagues , the original developers of Vicarious Visions will be in charge of the transition to Nintendo Switch, PS5 and Xbox Series S | X.
This confirmation, which brings a sigh of relief to fans of the work of Vicarious Visions, who also dealt with the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy , was not so obvious given that the studio was recently incorporated by Blizzard Entertainment.
