Article regarding Andromeda on Switch and Scorpio

All those issues you list are just reasons for them to focus on getting the game right for the available platforms as they currently exist. There is no point preparing something in March for a console that might not be here til December, when they could (and should) be working on finalising other issues with the game.

I strongly suspect that they will support the Scorpio. Whether they do it as a patch or as a physical re-release is a different question. I agree that the latter would be a money grab but not surprising. We're probably talking about an 8-9 month delay between the release of MEA and the release of the Scorpio so I kinda understand why they're not doing anything about it this far out.

EDIT: There's also the issue of financial backing. I suspect MEA will sell very well, but in the event that it flops EA probably wouldn't want BW wasting time and resources in updating the game purely for the Scorpio.
