Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time

Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time has already been rumored for Switch. Before the game even released, Nintendo’s system was clearly mentioned on the official website. Talk about a Switch version is now picking up again following launch.

After digging through the .ini file for Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time, it’s apparently been discovered that a Switch profile is hidden within. While it’s possible that it could be leftover code from Unreal Engine 4 – which was used to develop the game – YouTuber Canadian Guy Eh points out that we can see “Copied from Falcon” multiple times in the code. Falcon was the project name for Spyro Reignited Trilogy, which is also on Switch and was made by Toys for Bob. In other words, some optimization code may have been borrowed for the base of Crash Bandicoot 4 on Switch.

Resident Evil 3: Cloud Version

Thanks to today’s announcements of Control and Hitman 3, cloud versions of popular games are starting to become more prominent on Switch. However, cloud games aren’t entirely new to the platform. Capcom offered Resident Evil 7 on Switch through the streaming technology, though it was only offered in Japan.

Another Resident Evil game based on the cloud could be making its way to Switch. A logo for Resident Evil 3: Cloud Version has been found on the site the Switch takes you to to play Control. Interestingly, it has now been removed.

Capcom has not yet officially announced Resident Evil 3: Cloud Version for Switch. If that ends up happening, we’ll be sure to let you know.
