What Is Resident Evil Requiem?
The game kicks off when a body is discovered in an abandoned hotel. The person seems to have died from a strange, unidentified disease. You, as FBI analyst Grace Ashcroft, are sent to investigate the mysterious death, which just so happens to have occurred at the same hotel where your mom died eight years ago.
As you face your traumatic past, you also uncover a connection between this new body and the events of Raccoon City — where your mom was a reporter, who escaped from the carnage.
As for the gameplay, you can swap at any time between first-person and third-person perspectives. There seems to be another murderous character chasing you through the game, as our game critic discovered during a Resident Evil Requiem hands-on preview. We’ll have more info as Capcom trickles it out ahead of the game’s release in February 2026.
