Final prices with fees
How much does Resident Evil 5 for Nintendo Switch cost right now?
Resident Evil 5 for Nintendo Switch starts at €6.41 (€6.95 with fees) at Key4Games — that is a shared account, not a key of your own. If you want a key tied to your own account, the cheapest is €8.35 (€9.63 with fees) at Gamivo.
That €6.41 (€6.95 with fees) already includes the GOCDKEYS15 coupon, so apply it at checkout or the store will show you a higher price.
With 14 offers across 11 stores there is enough competition for the price to move, so the gap between the cheapest and the rest is worth checking before you buy.

Are these stores safe to buy Resident Evil 5 from?
Key4Games is the cheapest at €6.41 (€6.95 with fees) with only 37 reviews behind it. The best-backed alternative in the same format is Difmark at €7.55 (€7.89 with fees), 4.1 out of 5 across 14.2k reviews, €1.14 (€0.94 with fees) more.
Which Resident Evil 5 format should you buy?
The cheapest route is a shared account at €6.41 (€6.95 with fees; Key4Games), 28% under the cheapest eShop code, €8.35 (€9.63 with fees) at Gamivo. It is worth knowing what that buys: with an account you play on someone else's credentials and the game never becomes yours, while the code does.
There is also the cartridge at €19.99 (no fees; Media Markt ES), the only version you can lend or resell once you are done.
Can you activate Resident Evil 5 in US?
6 of the 14 offers work on US — the Global ones plus the ones issued for your own region.
That matters more on Switch than anywhere else: eShop codes are strictly regional, a code from one region will not redeem on an account from another, and there is no way to convert it afterwards.
Any other way to pay less for Resident Evil 5?
With so little movement on the game itself, the saving left is in the balance: an eShop card worth $35 for United States costs $32.24 at Gamivo today, 7.9% under face value, and that balance spends on anything.
Is Resident Evil 5 worth it?
Critics landed at 72 out of 100 across 22 reviews, with 62% of them recommending it.
Why is there such an expensive Resident Evil 5 offer?
One listing is worth ignoring: the eShop code that Eneba has at €44.99 (€49.41 with fees) is more than 7 times the cheapest offer and is not what this game costs. The number to work from is €8.35 (€9.63 with fees) at Gamivo.
So, which Resident Evil 5 deal should you buy?
For most people the key at €8.35 (€9.63 with fees) at Gamivo is the sensible buy: the game stays on your own account and it is only €1.94 (€2.68 with fees) more than the shared account.
