What I will not pretend to know
Steam’s full game carries the Cross-Platform Multiplayer category. The demo app does not. PlayStation and Switch pages I could read do not spell out whether a PS5 player can join a Steam lobby. Until Featherweight publishes a matrix, I treat console-to-PC crossplay as unconfirmed.
Nintendo lists a Switch download, not a separate Switch 2 edition. The current catalog has a compatibility status code, but we do not infer performance or feature parity from an undocumented numeric field. Check Nintendo’s product page on your console before buying. The Chinese name on Steam is 链兽角斗.
