US EditionCapcom Confirms Console and PC Launch Times for Resident Evil Requiem — and You Can Preload the Game Right Now
Capcom enables preload on major platforms ahead of Resident Evil Requiem's Feb 27 release, listing precise unlock times worldwide to ease launch day access.
- On Friday, February 27, 2026, Capcom confirmed the global launch schedule for Resident Evil Requiem, including platform-specific unlocks for PS5, Switch 2, and PC.
- Due to global time zones and platform rules, unlock times differ across stores and regions, as Valve's Steam listing shows Feb 26 at 7:00 PM PT while Capcom's map lists PC at 9 PM PT, creating a timing discrepancy.
- PlayStation and Xbox copies typically unlock at local midnight on Feb 27, with U.S. releases using midnight EST; Los Angeles consoles unlock Feb 26 9:00 PM and London consoles at Feb 27 0:00, with PC versions differing.
- Players who pre-ordered can now preload on PS5, Nintendo Switch 2, and Steam, and timing differences between console and PC risk uneven launch-day access and server traffic.
