SteamWorld Heist for Xbox One and Android put on hold

Image & Form needs to prioritise their next game.
Eirik Hyldbakk Furu Editor-in-Chief Norway 25 November 2016

SteamWorld Heist has been released on quite a few platforms, and was planned Xbox One and Android, but unfortunately, that's no longer the case. At least not for a long time.

Image & Form has announced that they've put the Xbox One and Android versions on hold because they're hard at work on their Nintendo Switch game. The development might continue some time in the future, but it's not for certain. This also means that we shouldn't expect new content on the other platforms.

A disappointing announcement, but also understandable with such a small team. We really like the game, so the Xbox One and Android players out there will do well of finding other means to play it. What do you think they're working on for the Switch?
