Close to the top of this month, Resident Evil Requiem is coming to Swap 2 and different platforms. However in as we speak’s Nintendo Direct: Companion Showcase, we could not assist however discover that fan-favorite Leon S. Kennedy was executed soiled in Requiem preview. If Nintendo thought folks would not discover Leon wildly lacking each shot, then it was enormously mistaken. Stormtroopers from the unique Star Wars trilogy had higher goal than Leon does within the video beneath.
Now, we will perceive Grace Ashcroft lacking each shot she took. She’s the inexperienced one. However Leon immediately seems like he wants Resident Evil 4’s Ashley Graham to return again and save him, which might most likely look so much like this fan-made edit.
Nintendo could have nerfed Leon to maintain the extent of violence down within the Direct. Grace did not get any profitable photographs off both. However that does not clarify the crime in opposition to nature that Nintendo pulled with this Leon Amiibo design.

What occurred to “scorching uncle Leon,” Capcom?! He seems like he fell out of the ugly tree and hit each department on the best way down.
The bizarre factor about this very kid-friendly preview for Resident Evil Requiem is that Nintendo did not appear to have an issue with the mature facets of Cyberpunk 2077 or The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. However one way or the other the mature superhero comedy Dispatch was closely censored on Swap 2. Nintendo has denied any accountability for that censorship, and Dispatch developer AdHoc has claimed its legally prohibited from explaining why the nudity and different grownup facets of the sport had been blurred.
Nobody needs that destiny to befall Resident Evil Requiem when it hits on February 27. In response to the ESRB, the game is still rated M for Mature throughout all consoles, even Swap 2.
