Partially due to skepticism both from the sequel's performance on Switch as well as many fans expressing disappointment in the sequel. The announcement, however, seems to have been met with lukewarm reactions by the series' fans. Both games were directed by Hidetaka "SWERY" Suehiro, who has built a rather large stable of devoted fans that follow his games, despite his titles not always being financial successes. Hopefully, the move to PC will help Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise avoid the performance issues it had when it released on Switch and will let fans of the first game that do now own a Switch finally be able to play the long-awaited sequel. Now, in the 2020 annual report from the game's publisher's parent company, Thunderful Group, it has been revealed that Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise is planned to make its way to Steam sometime in 2021.

When Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise launched it had severe performance issues on the Switch and was criticized for its handling of a transgender character, for which the game's director later apologized. Fans were surprised further when Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguisewas announced in July 2020 as a Nintendo Switch exclusive.

Either way, unless this is a mistake, an official announcement should be coming soon.Ĭurrently, Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise is available exclusively on Nintendo Switch. No specific release date is mentioned, and a PC version of the game hasn’t yet been formally announced, so this comes as a bit of a surprise. Thunderful Group – the parent company of Rising Star Games, who published Deadly Premonition 2 in the west – recently published their annual report, and interestingly enough, among the games they’ve listed for their 2021 release schedule, a Steam version of Deadly Premonition 2 is also mentioned.
If, however, it does appeal to you and you don’t have a Switch, you’ve been left waiting on the sidelines for this Switch-exclusive title to make its way to other platforms. Thanks to its sheer eccentricity and the large number of technical issues that pervade Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise (and its predecessor, for that matter), it is by definition a pretty niche game that won’t appeal to the masses.
