Late last year, Capcom announced that they will be bringing Resident Evil, Resident Evil 0, and Resident Evil 4, to the Nintendo Switch but gave no further details beyond that.
Now, we finally have the dates for the release of these three games — they will be released for digital download via the Switch eShop from May 21, 2019, onwards, with preorders starting from February 28.
Resident Evil 0, 1, and 4 are coming to Nintendo Switch eShop on May 21!

Switch owners in North America will also be able to purchase a physical copy of Resident Evil HD Remastered and Resident Evil 0 as part of a package called Resident Evil Origins Collection in retail stores, but it seems like stores in Europe will not be bringing them in.
While this is not the first time Resident Evil titles will be playable on the Switch, having previously received Resident Evil: Revelations and Resident Evil: Revelations 2 onto their console, this will be the first time a mainline title from the popular horror game comes on to the Switch.
The pricing for the games has yet to be released.
