Requiem for the dead. Nightmare for the living.

Powered by RE ENGINE and harnessing the full power of modern consoles, Resident Evil Requiem delivers spine-chilling realism like never before, with complex character details like lifelike facial expressions, realistic skin textures, and even high-fidelity sweat droplets that are sure to keep players on the edge of their seats. 

Resident Evil Requiem takes the series back to the iconic Raccoon City, home of the biological disaster that shook the world, combining deeply terrifying aspects of psychological horror with pulse-pounding action that franchise fans know and love.

Prepare to escape death in a heart-stopping experience that will chill you to your core.

The development team of Resident Evil Requiem – the ninth and most immersive mainline entry yet in the iconic survival horror Resident Evil series – shared all-new details on the upcoming game, set to frighten fans when it releases.

The development team also revealed more details on the series’ newest protagonist, Grace Ashcroft, an FBI intelligence analyst who is introverted and easily scared, introducing a new type of character for the Resident Evil series. Grace will experience horror from the same perspective as the player as she learns to overcome her fears throughout the course of the story. Though timid, she’s also trained with firearms and uses deductive reasoning to stay calm under pressure.

The team has also gone to great lengths to deliver an unprecedented level of realism, down to minute character details like the redness of Grace’s face as she’s hanging upside down, and the natural movement of her hair, modeled in part using a custom-made wig as reference.

As shared previously, players will be able to freely switch between both first- and third-person perspectives throughout the game. Experience the horror up close and personal with tense, realistic gameplay in first-person perspective, or use the over-the-shoulder camera with third-person perspective that allows you to create a more action-heavy gameplay experience.

Set 30 years after the U.S. government deployed the Sterilization Missile to destroy Raccoon City and contain the t-virus outbreak, Resident Evil Requiem is a eulogy to the many characters who were involved in the original outbreak and either lost their lives or were changed drastically as a result of it. With March 2026 marking the Resident Evil series’ 30-year anniversary, Resident Evil Requiem marks its own milestone in the franchise.

Resident Evil Requiem features voiceovers and subtitles in English, Latin American Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Japanese, French, Italian, German, Castilian Spanish, Russian, and Mandarin, plus subtitles in Korean, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Arabic, and Polish.

A new era of survival horror begins when Resident Evil Requiem launches February 27, 2026 for PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam).
