Capcom has officially announced an impressive lineup of Resident Evil titles arriving on the highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 next month.
This major push includes Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, Resident Evil Village, and Resident Evil Requiem, marking a significant expansion of the renowned survival horror franchise on Nintendo’s latest hardware.
These launches underscore Capcom’s ongoing commitment to bringing its leading IPs to a broader audience and leveraging the advanced capabilities of Nintendo’s upcoming Switch successor. Resident Evil 7 originally debuted in 2017, earning widespread praise for revitalizing the series through its first-person perspective and gripping narrative.
The title played a crucial role in reestablishing the Resident Evil brand, ultimately selling over 10 million copies across all platforms to date.
Resident Evil Village, released in 2021, continued this momentum by expanding the storyline and pushing the boundaries of atmospheric horror, achieving similarly impressive sales milestones.
Resident Evil Requiem, the latest entry, aims to deliver another unforgettable survival horror experience on the Nintendo Switch 2. In addition to these new arrivals, Capcom is preparing even more content for Switch 2 owners in 2024.
According to multiple industry insiders and confirmed Capcom schedules, the acclaimed Resident Evil 2 Remake, Resident Evil 3 Remake, and Resident Evil 4 Remake are all set to launch on the Nintendo Switch 2 later this year.
Each remake has been celebrated for modernizing classic entries in the series, offering enhanced visuals, reimagined gameplay mechanics, and quality-of-life improvements.
The move to bring these meticulously remade titles to the Nintendo Switch 2 demonstrates Capcom’s strategy to reach dedicated fans and newcomers alike. "Capcom's goal is to deliver the definitive Resident Evil experience to as many players as possible," a company representative stated in official communications.
They emphasized that leveraging the strengthened hardware of the Nintendo Switch 2 will ensure that these acclaimed horror titles maintain their high performance and visual fidelity on the portable console. Nintendo’s history with the Resident Evil franchise stretches back over two decades, with the series first appearing on Nintendo’s platforms with Resident Evil 2 for the Nintendo 64 and later gaining notable exclusivity deals for various GameCube entries.
Capcom’s decision to expand its most successful modern Resident Evil titles to the Nintendo Switch 2 highlights enduring demand among Switch ownership and an ever-increasing install base. With the Nintendo Switch 2 set for release within the year, and Capcom rolling out this comprehensive Resident Evil collection across digital storefronts like the eShop and through special releases detailed during recent Nintendo Direct presentations, the coming months are set to be an exciting period for both horror fans and the Nintendo community.
