Resident Evil: Requiem TGS Hands-On Highlights Smooth Switch 2 Build

TGS previews describe a confident return to survival horror with perspective toggling and a persistent stalker dynamic.

Overview

  • MP1st reporters played the Tokyo Game Show demo on Nintendo Switch 2 and described performance as smooth with no noticeable frame drops.
  • The Switch 2 version is visually pared back yet retains much of the look and feel of other platforms, with impressions likening it to a “next‑gen” experience for the handheld.
  • Players can switch between first‑person and third‑person perspectives via the options menu, with real‑time inventory adding tension during encounters.
  • The demo features a classic series ‘stalker’ enemy and opens with the protagonist, Grace, escaping medical restraints, though the session was time‑limited.
  • Capcom’s release date is listed as February 27, with MP1st’s coverage citing conflicting years, and a rumored PS4 version remains unconfirmed.
