Resident Evil

Today Capcom took to Twitter to announce that three classic Resident Evil games are coming to the Nintendo Switch.

The announcement includes the HD Remaster of the original game, REl 0, and RE4.

All three titles will launch on the Nintendo eShop on May 21. We also learn that while European gamers will be able to purchase each of them separately, North American Switch fans will find the Resident Evil Origins Collection (including the HD Remaster of the first game and 0) at retail in physical form.

RE HD Remaster was originally released for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and PC in 2015, bringing back the glory of the 1996 classic. The remaster of 0 launched in 2016 for the same platforms, while the original game dates all the way back to 2002.

The fourth game is, of course, the youngest, with its original release in 2005, and an upscaled release for PS4 and Xbox One launched in the summer of 2016.

Unfortunately, at the moment there appear to be no plans to launch the recent remake of RE 2 on the Switch.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
