The Nintendo Switch has had a pretty successful launch so far, and it seems that third parties are now starting to get interested in publishing games on it, now that a general consumer interest has been proven. One of these companies is Blizzard, who is now reportedly experimenting with getting Overwatch running on the console.

Recently, game director Jeff Kaplan did an AMA on Reddit, and here he's was asked about a potential Switch version, to which he responded:

"I'm loving the Switch! My second favorite gaming platform of all time is the 3DS. Getting OW on the Switch is very challenging for us. But we're always open minded about exploring possible platforms."

It seems that the team is experimenting with a Switch version, and wants to do it. Do you think it would work well, though?
