Resident Evil Requiem Plunges to $56 at Best Buy, Matching Prime Day Low

Resident Evil Requiem has returned to one of its best prices of the year. Best Buy's 4th of July Sale has brought the horror title back down to $56 across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Nintendo Switch 2, matching what shoppers saw during Prime Day.

That represents a $14 cut from the standard retail price. The deal applies to all three platforms at Best Buy, though pricing varies slightly depending on where you shop. Amazon's Prime Day offer on the Switch 2 version dipped slightly lower at $53.19, but Best Buy's Switch 2 copy sits close behind.

Resident Evil Requiem has earned strong marks since launch. IGN's review called it a game that "kept me completely absorbed and consistently entertained whether it was all hair-raising or all guns blazing," praising everything from its opening moments through its climactic sequence. The title combines the franchise's signature scares with compelling characters across its campaign, appealing to longtime series fans and horror enthusiasts alike.

If the previous Prime Day sale slipped past you, or you've been sitting on the fence about grabbing a copy, this window likely won't stay open long. Retail promotions at this price point rarely stick around for extended periods, and inventory on popular titles tends to move quickly during holiday sales events.

Best Buy's inventory spans all current generation and current Nintendo platforms, so there's flexibility depending on what you own. Those eyeing the deal should move sooner rather than later.

Author Emily Chen: "This is the kind of sweet spot price that makes a $70 game actually feel like an investment worth making, especially for a title this well-reviewed."
