LOS ANGELES: Resident Evil 7 is heading to Nintendo Switch in Japan on May 24, publisher Capcom announced on Monday. But, oddly enough, it’s a cloud version of the game that people can rent and stream to the hybrid console.
Resident Evil 7: Cloud Version includes the base game and all of the current downloadable content. It also has some added Joy-Con motion controls. Since it’s a streaming game, it requires a strong Internet connection to play. Japanese Switch owners can check out a demo for 15 minutes. After that, they’ll have to pay 2,000 yen (RM72) for a 180-day rental.
