Resident Evil Requiem gets Switch 2-exclusive Pro Controller and Amiibo
Capcom had a lot to share about the upcoming **Resident Evil Requiem**, unveiling a 10-minute *Road to Requiem* video on early Wednesday evening. As the next installment in the Resident Evil series becomes available for pre-order, fans received much more exciting news from the publisher.
One of the highlights is the announcement of several special Resident Evil exclusives, with some specifically designed for the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2. The Nintendo Switch 2 version of Resident Evil Requiem was first revealed during the September 2025 Nintendo Direct, marking a major milestone as a mainline Resident Evil title coming to a Nintendo console.
But Capcom isn’t stopping there. During Wednesday’s *Road to Requiem* presentation, it was revealed that a special **Resident Evil Requiem Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller** will launch alongside the game. This controller will feature a gunmental black finish with unique designs inspired by the game, making it a must-have for fans.
Even more exciting, Capcom announced the very first **Resident Evil Amiibo** in development. The Amiibo will be modeled after the game’s main protagonist, Grace Ashcroft, and is scheduled for release in Summer 2026. Although no images of the Amiibo were shown during the presentation, anticipation is already building.
In addition to these collectibles, fans will also be able to get their hands on the **Resident Evil Deluxe Edition**. This edition includes five costumes, four weapon skins, two screen filters, and two weapon charms, offering plenty of customization options to enhance the gameplay experience.
There’s still much more to learn about Resident Evil Requiem, and to that end, Capcom is planning a special **Resident Evil Showcase** for early 2026. Stay tuned for more updates as the release date approaches!
