About this game

Resident Evil Requiem is Capcom’s next mainline entry in one of horror gaming’s longest-running franchises, and this one splits its focus between two very different protagonists. You get FBI analyst Grace Ashcroft, a newcomer whose story leans into dread and vulnerability, and Leon S. Kennedy, the veteran agent players have followed since the original Resident Evil 2. Putting a fresh face and a known quantity in the same game is an interesting bet: it lets Capcom experiment with tone while still giving longtime fans an anchor they trust.

How it plays

The game moves between two intertwined perspectives, and each one seems built around a different kind of tension. Grace’s sections are framed as the more purely survival-horror side of the experience, the kind of slow-burn dread where every hallway and closed door matters. Leon’s chapters, by contrast, promise the punchier, more action-driven pacing the series has used him for since he became a series mainstay. The idea is that these two threads feed into each other emotionally, so what you learn or feel in one character’s story colors how you experience the other’s. Beyond that framing, Capcom hasn’t detailed specific mechanics, so it’s best to treat this as an evolution of the series’ established survival-horror foundation rather than assume any particular new system.

Who it’s for

This is an easy recommendation for anyone who already loves Resident Evil, especially fans who’ve stuck with Leon across multiple games and want to see where his arc goes next. It should also appeal to horror fans who like a story-driven campaign over open-ended sandbox scares, since the dual-protagonist structure suggests a tightly authored narrative. If you’re someone who bounces off survival horror’s slower, tension-first pacing, or you specifically want a new character with no baggage and no ties to past games, this might feel like it’s asking you to care about lore you haven’t followed. Total newcomers can likely still enjoy it, but they’ll get more out of it if they’ve at least met Leon before.

Is it worth it?

Capcom’s recent Resident Evil output has generally been a safe bet for players who know what they like about the series, and a mainline numbered-adjacent entry like this tends to deliver a full, substantial campcampaign rather than a stripped-down spin-off. For the audience that already knows they want more Resident Evil, this is the kind of release worth planning around rather than waiting years to circle back to. If you’re on the fence, it’s exactly the sort of story-heavy, single-player horror game that rewards catching on sale, since there’s no live-service pressure to jump in on day one and no multiplayer component that loses relevance over time. Grabbing it when the price drops costs you nothing in terms of the experience.
