Does regular any% strats and routes from pc apply to console?

Depending on the patch, certain things won't work such as tripping levers from below. Inventory drops are possible but extremely difficult on the switch with 1.4.3.2. the routes are the same I think.

just watch a current patch run :) note that there are a few load differences which makes certain rooms different. in that case, watch a console run :)
