Capcom confirmed that the upcoming Monster Hunter Rise which is exclusive to the Nintendo Switch platform has been developed using the RE Engine.
RE Engine
The engine has previously been used on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One for titles such as the acclaimed Resident Evil 2 Remake, Resident Evil 3 Remake and also Devil May Cry 5. They have now clearly managed to get it up and running on the Nintendo Switch system.
The game is currently being developed with Capcom’s proprietary RE ENGINE in order to provide a new, approachable Monster Hunter experience that can be enjoyed anytime, anywhere and with anyone.
Further, Capcom is also developing the role-playing game Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin in order to provide an enjoyable experience for fans of Monster Hunter and RPGs alike.
RE????
Yeah you must have been thinking Resident Evil … but let’s keep that to what it is, they also said it wouldn’t necessarily lead to Nintendo Switch ports of other RE Engine games:
I will crush one dream with my RE Engine on Switch talk: RE7, RE2 & RE3 aren’t coming to Switch. They tried to port RE7 to Switch for a while one time, but had difficulty getting any satisfactory result. RE Engine games for Switch will need to be made with Switch in mind.
