Resident Evil 6 on the Nintendo Switch remains one of the most content-packed entries in the franchise.

The Nintendo Switch version of Resident Evil 6 includes unique gameplay "cheats" and quality-of-life features that aren't found in the original releases, such as gyro aiming and specific unlockable criteria for costumes. Essential Unlockables & Gameplay Cheats

While there are no traditional "input codes" for the Switch version, these features function as built-in cheats once unlocked:

Infinite Ammo: Complete all four main story campaigns (Leon, Chris, Jake, and Ada) to unlock the ability to purchase Infinite Ammo for specific weapon types. Once unlocked, you must purchase the skill for that weapon using Skill Points and equip it in a skill slot.

Alternate Costumes (EX2 & EX3): On Switch, EX2 costumes are typically unlocked by achieving an S Rank in Mercenaries mode with that specific character. EX3 (retro-style) costumes can be earned by completing specific extra content tasks, such as defeating Ustanak 5 times in Predator mode for Leon.

Skill Point Farming: To quickly "cheat" the grind for expensive skills, replay Jake’s Chapter 4-3 (Poisawan Shopping District). You can quickly run through a short hallway with two chests containing roughly 18,000 Skill Points on No Hope difficulty. Switch-Exclusive Features & Tactics

Gyro Controls: You can enable motion aiming in the settings menu, allowing for more precise headshots compared to analog sticks alone.

Improved FOV: By default, the Switch version features a wider Field of View (FOV) than original releases, but you can further maximize this by setting Default Camera Field of View and Field of View When Aiming to 15 in the camera settings.

Quick Reload "Glitch": You can bypass long reload animations by quickly switching to a grenade or first aid spray and then back to your weapon immediately after the ammo counter refills.

Stamina Recovery: If your stamina bar is depleted, you can recover it instantly by going prone or taking cover. Pro Gameplay Tips

Result: You are a walking tank. Zombies bite you for pixel damage. You heal it back instantly. You never stop aiming. This build allows you to finish the No Hope difficulty (the hardest mode) without ever dying.

If you only do one thing from this post: Play the first chapter of Chris’s campaign on Amateur difficulty with the Shockwave skill equipped. Run into the middle of the J’avo, punch the ground, watch them all fly into walls. It’s the closest thing to a God Mode cheat code on the Switch.

TL;DR: No button codes. Buy SP DLC or grind Mercenaries for kills. Unlock Infinite Ammo by beating Professional (or join a friend). Equip Shockwave + Defense 3. Slide-cancel everywhere.

Happy surviving (and dominating), agents.

Resident Evil 6 on the Nintendo Switch is a glorious mess of QTEs, zombies, and over-the-top explosions. But let’s be honest—sometimes you don’t want to struggle through Jake’s snowmobile chase or Leon’s zombie hordes on a tiny Joy-Con.

You want to dominate.

While Capcom didn’t include a classic "press up, down, left, right" code for RE6, the game does have cheat-like mechanics, unlockable god modes, and exploit strategies that act just like the real thing. Here are the best cheats and secrets for RE6 on Switch.

Unlike previous RE games, RE6 does not have a standard infinite rocket launcher. However, you can unlock a Limited Rocket Launcher with 6 shots that respawns after each chapter:
