‘Resident Evil VII’ Coming to the Nintendo Switch May 24th…in Japan

Published

Well, after rumours last year of Capcom working to bring Resident Evil VII to the Nintendo Switch, it’s finally going to happen on May 24th. In Japan. And in a weird way.

Capcom have released a trailer for the port, which is labelled Resident Evil VII Biohazard Cloud Version. The game will include all of the DLC content released on PC, PS4 and Xbox One. However, this version of the game will only be playable only through streaming, and therefore will not be playable offline.

As noted in a GamesIndustry Japan article, Capcom’s Masaru Ijuin talked about the potential of the port last year at the Game Creators Conference 2017 in Japan. There were concerns about the Switch’s capabilities (namely the system’s RAM) to run RE7 in both the docked and portable modes. It appears this was the solution.

There’s no word yet on a North American version, nor just how the game will run via streaming. At least we won’t have to wait long to find the answer for the latter.

Clive Barker

We told you earlier this month that horror legend Clive Barker is leaving the convention scene behind to focus entirely on his writing, with various upcoming projects in the works.

A series of final appearances from Barker will begin at Days of the Dead Chicago this month, and we’ve learned Barker will also be coming to Monster Mania in New Jersey.

Clive Barker will be signing at Monster Mania 59 in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, which runs from August 2 – August 4, 2024. Stay tuned for more info from the convention.

Barker’s official statement earlier this month explained, “… it’s time to focus entirely on writing. I’m not stopping public events because I’ve lost delight in meeting you all over the years. I’m as passionate as ever about sharing my imagination with readers and moviegoers around the world. In the very room where I’m writing these words, I have the manuscripts for a very large number of projects (Thirty-one of them), some very close to completion, others still telling themselves. There are some wild projects in this collection of works, whether close to finished or done. There are also stories that you all knew I would be finishing.”

“Abarat IV and V are amongst the books at my feet,” he continued. “So is the Third and final book of The Art and the sequel to The Thief of Always. There are also return visits to characters and mythologies you may have thought I would never return to.

“I hope I am still able to surprise you in the decades ahead.”
