What makes these events special is the thrilling “one last surprise” at the end of each presentation. It was during this moment that Elden Ring finally emerged after years of anticipation. This time around, host Geoff Keighley couldn’t hide his enthusiasm as he unveiled the trailer for Resident Evil Requiem, scheduled for release on February 27th, 2026.
The announcement arrived approximately half an hour later following Capcom’s request for patience from fans regarding updates on Resident Evil 9. It seems they truly meant what they said when they mentioned “just a moment’s wait.
This new installment in the Resident Evil series is breaking away from its traditional survival horror style and incorporating cinematic action elements too. Geoff Keighley explains that it won’t just be about survival; there will also be action-packed scenes. It’s worth noting that Capcom has been experimenting with the formula for Resident Evil in recent years, as evidenced by Resident Evil 7 and its first-person perspective camera shift back to the series’ horror roots. Similarly, Resident Evil Village carries on this trend but leans more towards an action-oriented style, much like Resident Evil 4 did before it.
When Capcom unveiled Resident Evil 9, they admitted they were uncertain about the direction after Resident Evil 7. Director Koshi Nakanishi then added, “I’ve discovered something, and honestly, it feels substantial. I can’t reveal any specifics just now, but I hope you’re looking forward to when I can.
Resident Evil Requiem Stars Grace Ashcroft, Daughter of Alyssa Ashcroft
Apart from a few references hinting at Resident Evil: Vindication being set in Raccoon City, we got a sneak peek into the plot’s direction.
In this game, we follow Grace Ashcroft, who is the offspring of investigative journalist Alyssa Ashcroft. To clarify, Alyssa used to work tirelessly to bring down the enigmatic Umbrella Corporation.
She features as a controllable character in both Resident Evil Outbreak and its sequel, Resident Evil Outbreak: File 2.
There’s been much speculation among fans about whether Resident Evil 9 will follow the narrative of Ethan Winters, particularly his daughter, Rosemary. However, it seems that Capcom is choosing a completely new path for the game.
At GamesCom, we’ll delve deeper into the details of Resident Evil Requiem, a game that will be available for play there. Mark your calendars: Resident Evil Requiem is set to launch on February 27th, 2026, and can be enjoyed on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation 5 platforms.
