In other news, Resident Evil Requiem is the first game in the series to launch on Nintendo Switch 2 day in date with other versions of the game.
Game director Koshi Nakanishi recently spoke about the release on a Creator’s Voice segment, expressing surprise at how well the game ended up running on the handheld: “We thought to ourselves, ‘Oh, is this really running on Nintendo Switch 2?’ It all worked so smoothly that we decided to just go ahead with the game as-is and make it for the system. With specs like these in handheld mode, it looks great.”
