Capcom has unveiled the prices for the upcoming Resident Evil ports to Switch and the news isn’t good. All three titles (which includes Resident Evil, Resident Evil 0 and Resident Evil 4) are going for $29.99/£29.99 each with no option to buy a bundle. This is in contrast to the PS4 and Xbox One versions, which sell for $19.99 individually and even include a bundle of Resident Evil 1 and 0 for $39.99.

I might be able to explain the price hike if the Switch version was getting a physical version (the infamous Switch tax is true), but that isn’t happening. This just seems to be a case of Capcom trying to price gouge players on another platform. I guess you can’t take Resident Evil 4 to the toilet with you on PS4, but I wouldn’t pay an additional $10 for that convenience.
