Capcom has confirmed that “Resident Evil Requiem,” which is also known as “Resident Evil 9,” will debut on February 27, 2026 across platforms like PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X. The anticipated release of Resident Evil Requiem has been a topic of discussion for quite a while now, given the consistent success of the Resident Evil series for Capcom. It’s no surprise that a new installment was on its way.
The popular “Resident Evil” series has taken a brief hiatus lately. Since 2019, a new “Resident Evil” project was launched annually until 2023, but there was no new addition in 2024, and it appears the same may be true for 2025. Nevertheless, whispers continue that Capcom has major upcoming plans for the “Resident Evil” series, with these plans allegedly beginning with “Resident Evil 9,” which was expected to start a three-year cycle of annual “Resident Evil” releases. Finally, Capcom has unveiled details about “Resident Evil 9,” including its release date, one of its main characters, and more.
The trailer for “Resident Evil 9” introduces FBI agent Grace Ashcroft, daughter of Alyssa Ashcroft from “Resident Evil: Outbreak”. She’s assigned to probe a crime scene at a hotel where her mother was killed. Suspiciously, victims are falling ill in the same manner as previous “Resident Evil” installments, and there are ominous creatures lurking around. Remarkably, the game promises to transport players to the ruins of Raccoon City, offering glimpses of the famous Raccoon City Police Department. The trailer is cryptic, revealing only pieces of what the game entails. With a release date set for February 27, we can expect more details to surface in the upcoming months.
Resident Evil 9 Trailer
We can confirm that the upcoming game “Resident Evil 9” will be playable at Gamescom, with Gamescom Opening Night Live scheduled for August 19 offering a closer look. By this date, fans may gain a clearer understanding of how exactly “Resident Evil 9” is played. While it’s been speculated that the game could be open-world, this remains unverified. As of now, we’re unsure whether it will follow the first-person perspective as seen in “Resident Evil 7” and “Village”, or if it will adopt a third-person viewpoint; the latter seems more probable.
Despite Leon S. Kennedy not appearing in the trailer, a trusted Resident Evil insider known as AestheticGamer has confidently confirmed that Resident Evil 9 will indeed star Leon Kennedy. It’s worth noting that several Resident Evil games have multiple protagonists, so having Leon in the game wouldn’t be unexpected. Furthermore, AestheticGamer correctly predicted the release of Resident Evil 9 this week, lending credibility to their claims about Leon.
