Resident Evil Village: Cloud Edition comes to Switch today

Experience survival horror like never before in the eighth major installment in the storied Resident Evil franchise - Resident Evil Village. Resident Evil Village arrives on Switch today as a Cloud Version, which means you’ll need a decent internet connection to stream the experience, as this is not a native port.

Set a few years after the horrifying events in the critically acclaimed Resident Evil 7 biohazard, the all-new storyline begins with Ethan Winters and his wife Mia living peacefully in a new location, free from their past nightmares. Just as they are building their new life together, tragedy befalls them once again.

Please note that Resident Evil Village: Cloud Version doesn’t include the Winters’ Expansion, as that doesn’t release for Switch until December 2nd, 2022. The Winters’ Expansion provides more points of view for Resident Evil Village players, beginning with the much requested “Third Person Mode.” This new option enables players to experience the acclaimed main campaign, which was originally presented from a first-person perspective, from a whole new angle. See protagonist Ethan Winters in action with never-before-seen animations, as he struggles to survive the terrors that await him on his journey to rescue his kidnapped daughter, Rose. Along with that, the Winters’ Expansion will also include “The Mercenaries Additional Orders,” and “Shadows of Rose,” a new story following Ethan’s daughter Rosemary set 16 years after the main campaign.
