Earlier this year, developer Aiming revealed that its online RPG adventure Caravan Stories would be heading to Nintendo Switch. Well, fans of the genre will be happy to know that the game will be launching quite soon – although with a huge caveat…

The developer has confirmed that the free-to-play fantasy RPG will be hitting Nintendo Switch in Japan on 18 March 2021. Instead of a full download, however, the game will run via an online Cloud system – which will require players to have a stable network connection.

Additionally, the Switch version’s website is only available in Japanese – suggesting that the game will only offer that language option. In contrast, the PS4 version of the website offers English/Chinese, with similar language options eventually being present in the PS4 version.

As things stand, it looks like the game will only be available as a limited digital-experience in Japan. We’ll report back as we hear more in the future.
