Capcom has just revealed a Resident Evil Requiem-themed Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller that's set to launch on February 27, 2026 - the same day as the game itself.
Revealed in a 'Road to Requiem' video posted to the official Resident Evil YouTube channel, presenter Maggie Robertson (voice of Resident Evil Village's Lady Dimitrescu) describes this special edition Switch 2 Pro Controller as follows:
"Featuring Resident Evil Requiem design, and styled in gunmetal-inspired black, this original controller boldly showcases in-world newspaper articles from the game, capturing its dark and immersive atmosphere. Launching the same day as the game itself, you can bring home both on February 27, 2026."
The US-facing Nintendo website has a store page live for the product. As does its UK equivalent here. We can see across both that it'll cost $99.99 / £83.99 (around AU$149), a decent bit more than the standard model's retail price of $84.99 / £74.99 / AU$119.95.
Pre-orders do appear to have gone live at Nintendo's store now. You'll just need to log into your Nintendo account first in order to place a pre-order for yourself. Additionally, US retailer Best Buy seemed to have jumped the gun and also has its pre-orders live for the controller, long before anyone else did.
Now, check our lists below for the US and UK, as I've collated all the best retailer links to check for when the Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller Resident Evil Requiem Edition expands its pre-order horizons, if it even does so at all.

No store page live just yet at the Wall of Marts, nor does it have any Requiem-related store pages for the games or otherwise. Still worth a bookmark if this is your go-to retailer.
