Insider offers details on unannounced Switch 2 versions of RE2 and RE3 Remakes

Following weeks of rumours and speculation, Nintendo finally announced that they would be hosting a Switch 2 Direct this month – going live later today. Ahead of the digital showcase, one insider has offered a potential look at a couple of the planned announcements, claiming that Resident Evil 2 and 3 Remakes are ‘unquestionably’ coming to Switch 2, and will include feature parity with other current-gen systems.

As reported by known industry insider Nate the Hate in a Nintendo Direct predictions podcast, the leaker offered a titbit of information regarding the upcoming showcase. Alongside his predictions, Nate claimed to have heard that Capcom’s Resident Evil series of games will be coming to Switch 2 in the future, stating:

“That’s not a question…Resident Evil 2, 3, 7, these are Switch 2 bound. It’s just a matter of when they will be announced and when will they release.”

Whether these remakes wind up being announced at the Direct or not, we will have to wait and see. But regardless, when they do arrive on Switch 2, RE2 and 3 are said to be pretty uncompromising ports, with Nate claiming:

“From what I’ve been told, games like Resident Evil 2 and 3 are going to have feature parity with the PlayStation and Xbox version”. Elaborating further, the Switch 2 ports will reportedly support the likes of ray-tracing and 120fps.

Of course, the remakes were originally released on the 8th-generation of consoles – meaning Xbox One and PlayStation 4. Still, if the Switch 2 versions of Resident Evil 3 and 4 do end up supporting ray-tracing, 120fps and the rest, then it could be another welcome 3rd party addition to the line-up…assuming the price is appropriate.
