Capcom has released the Nintendo Switch 2 versions of Resident Evil 2 Deluxe Edition, Resident Evil 3, and Resident Evil 4 Gold Edition, allowing fans to catch up on all mainline titles on one Nintendo platform. All three Resident Evil games are available at a discount through November 7, 2026 in the Nintendo eShop. Capcom also teased that “even more Resident Evil news and announcements” will be made as the franchise celebrates its 30th anniversary, according to the press release for the Switch 2 releases.
Here’s an overview of each title, via Capcom:
- Resident Evil 2 Deluxe Edition – $29.99 (MSRP after sale ends: $39.99): An unprecedented biological disaster that strikes Raccoon City drags rookie police officer Leon S. Kennedy and Claire Redfield, a college student who has come to town to visit her brother, into a tragedy unlike any they’ve ever faced. Amid this extreme situation where the living dead devour humans, will the two of them manage to survive?
- Resident Evil 3 – $19.79 (MSRP after sale ends: $29.99): Raccoon City lies in ruins following the aforementioned unprecedented biological disaster. Told from the perspective of Jill Valentine, a survivor of the special forces unit S.T.A.R.S., this is the story of the beginning and end of the Raccoon City Incident. As the viral infection spreads through the city with every passing moment, Nemesis, the most fearsome assassin, stands in Jill’s way as she uncovers the dark secrets of Umbrella Corporation. Can she escape this desperate threat?
- Resident Evil 4 Gold Edition – $39.99 (MSRP after sale ends: $49.99): Six years after the Raccoon City Incident, Leon S. Kennedy embarks on a harrowing mission to locate and rescue the president’s daughter. Can he survive the madness of the villagers, who have been transformed into monstrous cultists? In addition to the Separate Ways DLC – another mission woven into the background of the main story – the game also includes a wealth of additional downloadable content.
Previously, both Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 were playable on Nintendo Switch with Cloud versions, but this release marks the first time either game is receiving a native version on a Nintendo platform.
