Capcom is bringing three of its popular Resident Evil remakes to the Nintendo Switch 2. Resident Evil 2: Deluxe Edition, Resident Evil 3, and Resident Evil 4: Gold Edition are all scheduled for a simultaneous release on October 16.
While Nintendo consoles have historically been associated with family-friendly titles, the platform has seen an increasing number of mature-rated games. This trend will continue with the arrival of these survival horror classics. Resident Evil 2: Deluxe Edition revisits the Raccoon City Incident, complete with included downloadable content. Resident Evil 3 offers Jill Valentine's perspective on the same foundational event. The collection is rounded out by Resident Evil 4: Gold Edition, which picks up six years later and includes the Ada Wong-focused Separate Ways expansion among its DLC.
For players seeking to familiarize themselves with significant story moments in the Resident Evil franchise, either as newcomers or as fans of recent entries like Resident Evil Village, these remakes offer a comprehensive look at key events in the series' history. The simultaneous launch of all three titles on October 16 aims to provide a substantial package of content for the Nintendo Switch 2.
