Capcom’s 12-minute showcase proves Resident Evil Requiem is worth the wait: here are my five key takeaways

  • On Thursday night, Capcom unveiled Resident Evil Requiem during its Resident Evil Showcase, confirming its release on 27 February 2026 for Windows PC, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS5, and Switch 2.
  • The game’s structure lets players swap perspectives for either character, with Resident Evil Requiem pairing fast-action Leon sections in third person and slower Grace segments in first person.
  • Director Koshi Nakanishi revealed zombies that retain human elements like a chef and maid, a crafting system using infected blood, and Leon’s massive gun handed to Grace plus his hatchet for melee.
  • Beyond gameplay, Capcom highlighted collaborations with Porsche and Hamilton, watchmaker, with 2,000 watches limited, plus a digital deluxe edition featuring costumes, weapon skins, and a Grace pre-order costume.
  • Footage focused on interiors, leaving questions about outdoor sections; Capcom flagged 30th anniversary concert plans for March 22, and the final pre-launch showcase status remains unclear ahead of Nintendo and Sony livestreams.
