Evaluation

Resident Evil Requiem launched on February 27, 2026 as a full-price single-player survival horror game featuring dual protagonists Grace Ashcroft and Leon S. Kennedy. Since launch, Capcom has delivered a photo mode patch (March 27, 2026), the free Leon Must Die Forever minigame mode (May 8, 2026), and a free public demo alongside a bug-fix patch (June 8, 2026). A further balance update for the Leon Must Die Forever minigame was released on June 25, 2026 — the most recent official communication about the game. All three listed DLC items — the Deluxe Kit, Grace's Apocalypse costume, and the Original Soundtrack — have been released. No additional DLC or expansions have been announced for Requiem. The June 2026 announcements from Capcom concern a separate upcoming title, Resident Evil Veronica (targeting a 2027 release), not new content for Requiem. The game launched outside the recently-launched window as of today (August 27, 2026), and no outstanding content commitments exist. The post-launch content Capcom delivered — a major free gameplay mode and a demo — appears to represent the full scope of planned additions, consistent with Capcom's typical post-launch support pattern for mainline single-player Resident Evil games. With no unshipped DLC, no developer announcements of future content, and no sustained pattern of ongoing major updates expected to continue, the game is effectively complete. The last major content addition was the Leon Must Die Forever minigame on May 8, 2026.

About this game

Requiem for the dead. Nightmare for the living.


A new era of survival horror arrives with Resident Evil Requiem, the latest and most immersive entry yet in the iconic Resident Evil series. Experience terrifying survival horror with FBI analyst Grace Ashcroft, and dive into pulse-pounding action with legendary agent Leon S. Kennedy. Both of their journeys and unique gameplay styles intertwine into a heart-stopping, emotional experience that will chill you to your core.

Raccoon City


Return once again to the city of disaster and despair.
A midwestern city in the United States and the headquarters for the former global pharmaceutical company, Umbrella.
In the face of the zombie outbreak in 1998, the government approved a sterilization operation, a missile strike on the city in an attempt to quickly bring the situation under control—but this was swiftly covered up.

Grace Ashcroft


An intelligence analyst for the FBI who demonstrates intense focus and insight in deductive reasoning and analysis. Her mother's death shook her to the soul, making her an introvert who immerses herself in work. So she heads to the abandoned hotel alone to investigate this mysterious death.

Leon S. Kennedy


One of the survivors of the Raccoon City Incident. With a strong sense of justice and physical capabilities to match, he has responded to numerous outbreaks since that fateful day. Now, as a seasoned DSO agent combatting bioterrorism, he has returned to investigate the latest string of deaths in the Midwest.

Gameplay


Experience the series' classic survival horror through combat, investigations, puzzles, and resource management. Gameplay allows you to freely switch between first and third-person views to face the horrors in a way that suits your playstyle.
