Resident Evil Requiem is due for release on 27th February 2026 and, according to Dusk Golem, who has been known to leak RE news prior to official announcements, the game is supposedly being planned for release on both the Switch 2 and the PS4.
"I won't be at around the bush, Resident Evil Requiem should be releasing in PlayStation 4 & Nintendo Switch 2, seems this was kinda' known behind the scenes & in the grapevine.
"I'm not the first person to say this publicly actually, just corroborating. Talked about it with five different people in the last few weeks and know another guy with a good reputation said as much less than a week ago. So not from me, but I have been hearing the same thing.
"Unsure if it'll be at launch, and my guess is it'll be a different version with different tech, sorta' like the 360 / PS3 & Wii / PS2 era, since some features of Requiem like ray tracing are focused on modern platforms.
But if the question is, is it happening or not, the answer pretty much is, yeah it's happening."

That is crazy. They just upped the price of all the standard systems, and now they're doing this. Absolutely! Crazy. Thing is, I suspect other console manufacturers will follow with something similar.
Really makes me glad I went ahead and took the plunge to get my system back in April.
Whoops haven't posted in a while. I have been busy cause I have a girlfriend now and it's going very well. In my free time I've been playing MGS3 which is awesome cause it's MGS3, looks and feels great. It is the same game so only get it if modern controls and graphics is enough for you.
Silksong soon!!!!!!
Welcome back MacDaddy Vader.
On the subject of Silksong, I'm probably going to wait about a year before I finally buy it. They've already said there's going to be DLC for it. I think Hollow Knight was such an amazing experience for me, because I waited for all of the DLC to be released before playing it and got to play the full game all at once. Too many times I end up skipping DLC all together just because I've already moved on from the game and don't feel like going back.

I would believe him
I'm interested in Cronos for the Switch 2. I may not buy it this month because I am broke, but maybe soon. Thanks for the comparison video, GG.
PS5 Digital Edition getting a quiet storage downgrade
Sony is just trying to see how much they can get away with at this point.
Wow. Has that ever happened with a console before?

There are so many RE games I missed. The last ones I played was re6 and Revelations 2.
I really hope they release them on switch 2 at a cheap price. Doubt I could afford to play them all otherwise.
It's getting to the stage where the graphical difference doesn't bother me. Cronos looks decent, I will wait on a sale though.
Im more suprised by Star Wars Outlaws. The footage we saw before the most recent had a terrible framerate.
Digital Foundry said it would be the real test as a next gen only game.
Everyone had low if any expectations from Switch 2 running decent raytracing at acceptable framerates.
Neogaf had a thread asking when we'd see raytracing on switch 2 and everyone was just posting derpy memes mocking it.
Even IIRC a Virtuous port developer was saying ray tracing wouldn't be viable for lighting on switch 2, but reflections would work well.
Now Outlaws, like Indiana Jones are require ray tracing and its using ray traced global illumination and running at a virtually locked 30 fps.
I get its not as good quality as ray tracing on more powerful systems, but the basic expectation was that it wouldn't work at all.
Also heard some different resolutions from various videos. One saying it was 1440p docked, though I think its more likely to be 1080p.
With DLSS it doesn't really matter that much.
And it bodes well for raytraced Indiana Jones and RE Requim
