Survival horror enthusiasts got a glimpse of the highly anticipated Resident Evil Requiem at Gamescom 2025. This upcoming sequel will transport fans back to the haunting streets of Raccoon City, with a fresh protagonist leading the way.
The release date for Resident Evil Requiem has been set for February 27th, 2026, and it will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. Be sure to watch Capcom’s latest gameplay trailer to get a taste of the action.
In this ninth installment of the Resident Evil series, players will step into the shoes of Grace Ashcroft, who finds herself in the midst of an apocalyptic nightmare filled with suspenseful jump scares and a complex conspiracy to unravel.
Similar to the gameplay style of Resident Evil 7 and Village, Requiem will offer a first-person perspective and stunning visuals powered by Capcom’s cutting-edge RE Engine. Instead of facing off against zombies, the Gamescom footage reveals Grace and her mother evading a terrifying serial killer. This fresh approach to the series is sure to bring new thrills while staying true to the iconic Resident Evil elements that fans love.
While not officially confirmed, it is highly likely that a demo will be released for Requiem. Previous titles like RE7 and Village offered players a sneak peek of the gameplay, so fingers crossed for a similar treat with the upcoming installment.
