The much-discussed mini-game for Resident Evil Requiem has just been made available as part of a new update for the game, which is revealed to be Leon Must Die Forever. Nintendo Switch 2 players can access it now.
The mode can be unlocked after finishing the main story. According to Capcom, it includes “the nonstop combat action that players know and love from legendary agent Leon S. Kennedy.” The mode has you fighting through areas you’ve visited previously throughout the game and ultimately taking on the final boss, all with stronger enemy variants, five increasingly difficulty ranks, and a race against the clock. Leon can unlock “enhanced abilities” exclusive to the mode.

Rumor: New Resident Evil Requiem music found in datamine, Mercenaries could be on the way
Posted on 1 month ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Switch 2 | 0 comments
One fan claims to have come across new music within the files of Resident Evil Requiem via a datamine, and some believe that the game could be getting a Mercenaries mode next month.
Last month, director Koshi Nakanishi teased a new minigame planned for a future update. Nothing was shared about what exactly Capcom had planned other than a May launch month. However, Mercenaries would certainly fit into that minigame category and the music may also be pointing in that direction.

Video: Resident Evil Requiem Nintendo Switch 2 vs. PS5 graphics comparison [update: second comparison]
Posted on 2 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Switch 2, Videos | 0 comments
September 12: After it was just announced for Nintendo Switch 2 today, a Resident Evil Requiem graphics comparison has already come in that puts it up against the PS5 version.
We’ll have a better idea about how the game looks and runs on Nintendo’s console, but so far, the results are fairly impressive. There are some changes here and there, but this shows that the system is capable of running current-gen titles. It’s far different from what we used to see with games that were downgraded for Nintendo Switch 1 – and many projects simply couldn’t run on the platform.
