Resident Evil 7, Village and Requiem all coming to Switch 2 in February

While Resident Evil 7 and Resident Evil Village are already ‘playable' on the Nintendo Switch, the games are only available in cloud form, meaning they don't run natively on the Switch hardware. Now with the much more powerful Switch 2 on the market, Capcom can finally bring native versions of these games to Nintendo's home console hybrid platform. 

On February 27th 2026, Resident Evil 7 and its sequel, Resident Evil Village, will launch on Switch 2. The games will contain feature parity with the other console versions of the game and better yet, Switch 2 owners will be able to catch up on the story in time for Resident Evil Requiem, the grand finale to this trilogy of games.

Resident Evil Requiem (Resident Evil 9) will also release on Switch 2 on February 27th 2026, the same day as other platforms. Recent rumours suggest that the Resident Evil Remakes will also come to Switch 2, but it seems that we won't get confirmation on that until next year.

Currently, the Resident Evil Remake series spans three games – Resident Evil 2, 3 and 4. There is no word on whether Capcom will continue with the remakes for Resident Evil 5 and 6.

KitGuru Says: Resident Evil has always been popular on Nintendo platforms, so this news should come as no surprise. Hopefully those remakes aren't too far off either.
