Unavailability of the purchased game
Unpleasant news for owners of the cloud version of Aliens: Fireteam Elite on Nintendo Switch. The game has officially stopped working due to the shutdown of the cloud servers on which it completely depended.
This case serves as yet another reminder of the significant risks of cloud gaming on consoles. Players who paid their money for access to the game now have no way to launch it.
Main problems of cloud releases:
- Complete dependence on the servers of the publisher or cloud service provider.
- Lack of access to the game after the project's closure, despite a full purchase.
- Inability to play without a stable and fast internet connection.
Currently, the developers have not provided detailed comments regarding possible compensation for Switch users who lost access to the purchased shooter.
