Keeping in line with what we’ve heard about other free-to-play games, SEGA has confirmed that Phantasy Star Online 2 Cloud will not be attached to Nintendo Switch Online. A subscription will not be required in order to play.

It’s safe to say at this point that any Switch titles that’s free-to-play won’t be involved with Nintendo Switch Online. Arena of Valor, which is launching soon on Switch, is another example.

Phantasy Star Online 2 Cloud is now available for download on the Japanese Switch eShop. But as we know, service won’t actually start until April 4. While you can download the game, you won’t be able to do much for now.

It’s worth pointing out that Phantasy Star Online 2 Cloud has been notoriously difficult for those outside of Japan to access. Things could be the same on Switch, meaning fans in North America and Europe might be unable to play next month.

Phantasy Star Online 2 Cloud takes up 36.0MB of space.

We knew that Phantasy Star Online 2 Cloud would be launching for Switch in Japan sometime in 2018. SEGA has now narrowed things down a bit further, confirming a release window of Spring 2018.

SEGA has shared the following information:

– No time-consuming downloads and constant updates since everything is on a cloud server
– Runs at 30 frames per second, but there may be lag depending on network conditions
– A stable Internet connection is required to play
– The Switch version cannot play quests with models outside of the PC version
– All accounts use the same SEGA ID, so Arks Cash and Star Gems can be shared across models
– Can switch between models as you please as long as you are not logged in at the same time
