‘Resident Evil’ 2, 3, and 4 Remakes Launch on Nintendo Switch 2 October 16!

Just in time for spooky season, three masterful Resident Evil remakes – including Resident Evil 2 Deluxe Edition, Resident Evil 3, and Resident Evil 4 Gold Edition – make their way to Nintendo Switch 2 starting on October 16, with pre-orders and an early adopter’s discount available now!

With the introduction of these three remakes, all mainline Resident Evil titles, including the recently released Resident Evil Requiem and the upcoming Resident Evil Veronica, will be able to be experienced on Nintendo Switch 2!

While these three remakes faithfully preserve the essence of the original games, each title has been reimagined with fresh ideas and modernized gameplay via Capcom’s RE ENGINE. Resident Evil 2 Deluxe Edition and Resident Evil 4 Gold Edition also include a wealth of additional content from the original versions.

For the uninitiated, here’s a quick rundown of each remake:

• Resident Evil 2 Deluxe Edition: An unprecedented biological disaster that strikes Raccoon City drags rookie police officer Leon S. Kennedy and Claire Redfield, a college student who has come to town to visit her brother, into a tragedy unlike any they’ve ever faced.
• Resident Evil 3: Raccoon City lies in ruins following the aforementioned unprecedented biological disaster. Told from the perspective of Jill Valentine, a survivor of the special forces unit S.T.A.R.S., this is the story of the beginning and end of the Raccoon City Incident.
• Resident Evil 4 Gold Edition: Six years after the Raccoon City Incident, Leon S. Kennedy—now an agent—embarks on a harrowing mission to locate and rescue the president’s daughter. Can he survive the madness of the villagers, who have been transformed into monstrous cultists?
