Resident Evil Requiem

Resident Evil Requiem launches February 27, 2026 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2 and PC

Resident Evil Requiem
It sounds like "Resident Evil Requiem" introduces a compelling new protagonist, Grace Ashcroft, who serves as an FBI technical analyst. Her investigation into the recent murders at the Wrenwood Hotel is deeply personal, given that the hotel is where her mother, Alyssa Ashcroft from Resident Evil Outbreak, was murdered.

This connection adds emotional depth and stakes to the storyline, potentially blending suspense, mystery, and character-driven drama.

RE Requiem
Grace is the daughter of Alyssa Ashcroft from Resident Evil: Outbreak

Additionally, Resident Evil Requiem is making a long-awaited comeback to Raccoon City. Near the end of Resident Evil 2, an experimental thermobaric missile strike destroyed the iconic city. 

Additionally, because some of their personality traits have been preserved, the infected appear different this time. This means that you may encounter an infected caretaker who is still compulsively cleaning the floor they used to work on, or you may encounter an infected chef who is mindlessly chopping up meat with a cleaver.

Leon Kennedy
Leon Kennedy is currently 51 Years old now in Resident Evil Requiem and he looks gorgeous!

Throughout the campaign, players will assume the roles of Grace and Leon Kennedy in Requiem. The game blends the heart-pounding action that fans of the franchise are accustomed to with "deeply terrifying aspects of psychological horror." 

Survival-action is Leon Kennedy's main focus. He is swift, dangerous, and capable of dispatching a swarm of infected with a witty one-liner, just like in his previous appearance in the Resident Evil 4 remake. 

You can play Requiem from a variety of perspectives, which is another intriguing fact. Both first-person and third-person camera perspectives will be included in the game, so you can experience the narrative from either the classic Resident Evil point of view or the first-person perspective that has characterized more recent entries in the series.

How long to beat the game? Resident Evil Requiem is expected to take approximately 15 to 20 hours to complete the main campaign, positioning its length similarly to the Resident Evil 4 Remake.
