Capcom has unveiled fresh gameplay footage of the survival horror game Resident Evil Requiem during the Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase, offering a new look at how the upcoming entry runs on Nintendo Switch 2. The footage highlights the Switch 2 version alongside the game’s already announced release for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam, with launch set for February 27.

The newly revealed footage places a clear spotlight on moment-to-moment gameplay, emphasizing the game’s dynamic pacing and visual presentation on Nintendo Switch 2. Viewers are shown tense encounters and atmospheric exploration, reinforcing the series’ trademark balance between deliberate horror and sudden bursts of action. The ability to seamlessly switch between first-person and third-person perspectives is again demonstrated, underscoring how players can tailor the experience to their preferred style while navigating high-risk scenarios.
This latest showing also reinforces the dual-protagonist structure, featuring veteran agent Leon S. Kennedy alongside FBI analyst Grace Ashcroft. The footage leans into contrasts between quieter, suspense-driven sequences and more intense confrontations, illustrating how Resident Evil Requiem aims to sustain tension across different play styles and encounter types. While the broader release details have been known for some time, this Nintendo Direct appearance primarily serves to give fans a clearer sense of how the game performs and feels on Nintendo’s latest hardware.
