Resident Evil 2, 3 & 4 Remakes Are Coming to Switch 2 and Look Excellent
Capcom's acclaimed Resident Evil remake trilogy is heading to Nintendo Switch 2, and early hands-on impressions suggest the ports are shaping up to be some of the best handheld versions of these games yet. GameSpot got a full 30-minute look at Resident Evil 2, 3, and 4 running on Switch 2 hardware, and came away impressed with how well all three titles translate to Nintendo's latest console.
The ports bring three of the most celebrated survival horror remakes of the modern era to a portable platform, letting players experience the intense, over-the-shoulder action of Raccoon City and beyond wherever they go. With the Switch 2's upgraded hardware over its predecessor, the remakes appear to hold up visually and technically in a way that would have been difficult on the original Switch.
