‘Control Ultimate Edition’ Released on Switch; Dataminers Find Evidence of ‘Resident Evil 3’?
In a surprising turn of events, Remedy’s Control Ultimate Edition – Cloud Version is now available on the Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo eShop. But it turns out, that’s not the only big news (well, rumour) that’s come from this announcement.
After snooping around the Control Ultimate Edition – Cloud Version website where you access the streaming version of the game, dataminers have now apparently uncovered evidence of Capcom’s Resident Evil 3 remake coming to the Switch via cloud technology. The site has now apparently been scrubbed of the reference, but not before this little nugget was saved:
Of course, this hasn’t been confirmed by Nintendo or Capcom, so don’t consider it a definite thing just yet. However, if this does turn out to be the real deal, this could reignite the demand for Resident Evil VII, which was originally released on the Switch in Japan in 2017 using similar streaming techniques, to get a worldwide release on the Switch. Heck, let’s toss in the Resident Evil 2 remake for good measure!
Again, it’s all pure speculation and rumour at this point, but with the Switch appearing able to handle Control (not to mention DOOM), it definitely wouldn’t be out of the realm of possibility.
Control and Control Ultimate Edition are currently available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store. Control Ultimate Edition will also launch for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X in late 2020.
While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.
This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.
You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!
In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?
“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.
“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”
Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
