Resident Evil: Requiem players on the Nintendo Switch 2 will be able to pick up brand-new amiibos of both Grace and Leon this Summer.
The Amiibos, revealed during today’s Nintendo Partner Direct, will be available to purchase seperately from the game later this year. One features Grace donning a black backpack and slick brown jacket, while the other has Leon with his handy hatchet.
As for what they actually do, aside from sit on your desk as a cool collectable, players who place them on their Switch 2 controllers will be able to unlock special in-game weapon skins for Resident Evil: Requiem. So it you fancy getting a bit stylish in 2026’s biggest horror release, that’s how you go about it.
Resident Evil: Requiem, set to release on the 27th February, is looking to be a nice blend of first-person and classic third-person Resident Evil. You can read Eurogamer’s final preview on the game ahead of its release later this month for a more in-depth look at the game.
In it, Alex Donaldson wrote: “All told, this final hands-on can consider mission accomplished: I left it far more excited for RE9 than I went in. I think that mad lot might just do it again. And certainly, with its varying modes of play and dizzying pendulum tempo, it feels like a fitting tribute to thirty years of Resident Evil’s brand of survival horror. I am properly desperate to get my hands on the final thing.”
