Resident Evil 9 Requiem: Capcom Unveils Switch 2 Version, Surprisingly Clean

Resident Evil 9 Requiem on Switch 2: Graphics Promise Bloody T-Rated Gameplay

During a joint Nintendo Direct presentation on February 5, 2026, Nintendo and Capcom revealed the first gameplay footage of Resident Evil 9: Requiem for the Switch 2. The impressive graphics, shadows, and atmosphere promise a solid gaming experience when the game launches on February 27. While the footage included familiar scenes, it stood out for one key reason: to maintain a T rating, the character never landed a direct hit, resulting in a bloodless experience. In related news, the first Resident Evil amiibo, featuring Leon and Grace, will be available this summer; preorders are open now. The Deluxe Edition includes five costumes, four weapon skins, two screen filters, two luck charms, and a digital mini-soundtrack.
