    If the Xbone is already having trouble running it, Switch will not be able to at all even after major optimisations. Besides, Switch is not only lacking the hardware power, it is also running on a completely different architecture and operating system. So any optimisations for Xbone/PC will have no impact on that in any case

    The only thing you'll be able to do well on the Switch is switch it off.

    Most Likely not, the switch, while extremely powerful for a handheld. Is not as powerful as a Xbox or PS4. If they manage to optimize the game a lot by 1.0 maybe but I wouldn't have high hopes.

    (Side Note: Man am I excited for Breath of the Wild and Mario Odyssey)
    (Side Side Note: Portable Subnautica would be awesome)

    Wouldn't you have to switch it on to do that

    Yes, but you won't be able to do that well.

    I would highly doubt the Switch could run Subnautica after optimization.

    But, anything is possible.
