Resident Evil 7 would possibly find yourself with cross-buy on PC and Xbox One. Cross your fingers.
Resident Evil 7 goes to have cross-save help on PC and Xbox One, Capcom has confirmed.
The information broke in Japanese Resident Evil 7 journal characteristic final week and was later verified by IGN, talking to Capcom’s western arm.
What Capcom wouldn’t say is whether or not Resident Evil 7 could have cross-buy on PC and Xbox One when it launches in January 2017 – with out cross-buy, cross-save is a bit bizarre, isn’t it? It’s not like so many individuals will purchase two copies of a triple-A recreation that the event pays for itself.
What actually makes us ponder whether cross-buy is on the playing cards is Microsoft’s Play Anywhere scheme. Although Play Anywhere titles might help cross-save and cross-play, the core of the scheme is cross-buy: decide up Gears of War four or Sea of Thieves on PC, and also you additionally personal it on Xbox One, and vice versa.
Since cross-save is about as helpful as a fart in a vacuum with out cross-buy, and Capcom wouldn’t say “no” when IGN raised the query of cross-buy, it’s potential Microsoft and Capcom have teamed as much as make Resident Evil 7 the primary third-party Xbox Play Anywhere title.
This may go a way in direction of making up for all of the love Capcom has proven PS4, as for instance with Resident Evil 7’s VR mode and unique Kitchen demo.
