ConsideringKonami’s modern absence from the video game development scene, there’s been a surprising amount of news from the publisher lately. Despite whatKonami’s “internal restructure” of its video game division led many to believe, it’s currently moving toward the release of several licensed products. Just this past week came the announcement ofGetsu Fuma Den: Undying Moonfor the Nintendo Switch, but a new rumor hints that Konami could have another Switch announcement on the horizon.
The rumor stems from an official source this time, as Konami’s Twitter account for Spain shared a surprising reveal early Wednesday morning. A Twitter user messaged the Konami account, saying that they hope that there’s more than justGetsu Fuma Den: Undying Mooncoming to the Switchdown the line. The Konami account replied that it’s, “sure you’re not the only one,” interested in more Konami games on Switch, with a winking emoji after.

Obviously, the message from Konami isn’t a confirmation of any sort. It’s an ambiguous response that could absolutely be a hint that moreKonami gamesmay be coming to the Switch in the future, but it could also just be typical social media teasing, too. It’s likely that Konami will bring games to the Switch eventually, but it’s only a possibility that a new game will be brought to the platform in the near future.
Just as an example, Konami’s already confirmed that there’s aYu-Gi-Oh! Rush Duelgame in development for the Switch. The platform is obviously on its radar. But the user who asked Konami the question, and Konami itself, likely had something else in mind. They were perhaps considering a bigger game, like something fromMetal Gear Solid, Castlevania, or perhaps evenSilent Hill.
Some Konami fans are already running wild with the possibilities, of course. One popular game being mentioned isMetal Gear Solid Rising: Revengeance, which Switch users are hoping might be ported. Konami obviously has a variety of classic games that could be ported, as well as major franchises that could be licensed out likeGetsu Fuma Den.
What’s clear is that Konami has projects in development. What those projects are and what platforms they’re coming to is unclear. However, Konami has already announced plans to have a show aspart of the E3 seasonthis summer. Switch users hoping for an announcement should keep an eye on those summer game announcements fromKonami.
