The controller keeps the same black-gray color scheme as the standard model, but stands out with an RE-themed front faceplate that looks like a newspaper clipping from Raccoon City.
The words "Resident Evil" appear prominently at the top, with "Requiem" just beneath it, while the rest of the design features snippets of in-universe articles and haunting images of the city's grim setting.
Capcom looks to be throwing the full force of Resident Evil Requiem behind the Switch 2 with several exclusive announcements for the console.
That includes the aforementioned controller, alongside an amiibo, and the 'Resident Evil Generation Pack', containing Resident Evil Requiem, Resident Evil 7 biohazard Gold Edition, and Resident Evil Village Gold Edition for Switch 2.
At the time of publication, only Best Buy and Nintendo (sold out) are hosting preorders for the first themed Switch 2 Pro Controller. But, we're also expecting the likes of Amazon, Walmart, and Target to follow suit soon. Stay tuned for more preorder updates in this regard.
In the meantime, we’ve got plenty more on Requiem to keep locked in, including the director of the game explaining why Western fans are more likely to play in first-person, and how the developers can’t tell if the game’s actually scary any more.
Resident Evil Requiem arrives for Nintendo Switch 2, PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S on February 27, 2026.
