Grace Ashcroft on Switch 2
The trailer highlights Grace Ashcroft, the new face of Resident Evil, as she investigates a string of deaths tied to the Raccoon City outbreak. Players can expect the same mix of survival horror and action on Switch 2, optimized for the next-generation handheld console.
Same Release Date Across Platforms
Resident Evil Requiem won’t stagger its release. Capcom confirmed that Switch 2 players will be able to experience Grace’s story at the same time as other platforms. That means February 27, 2026 is the global date across PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and Switch 2.
Resident Evil’s New Era
This is the first mainline Resident Evil game confirmed for Switch 2, setting the stage for how Capcom plans to support the hardware. With the franchise marking its 30th anniversary in March 2026, Requiem positions itself as both a continuation of the series’ history and a step into its future.
