Resident Evil Requiem Leaks New Look for Leon

A leaked image may have given fans their first look at Leon Kennedy’s updated appearance in the upcoming game, *Resident Evil Requiem*. For a long time, players have speculated about the popular character returning to the *Resident Evil* series, and this leak could be the first real evidence. Although Capcom hasn’t officially confirmed Leon’s involvement in *Resident Evil Requiem*, the leaked image suggests he’s returning with a new look.

With the release date approaching, Capcom has been gradually sharing details about the new *Resident Evil* game. A recent trailer shown during the September 2025 Nintendo Direct for *Resident Evil Requiem* introduced the game’s villain and confirmed the return of the Umbrella Corporation. But fans are eager to know if other familiar elements from the series will appear, and a new leak might offer some clues.

Leaked Resident Evil Requiem Document Shows Off New Leon Kennedy Design

Okay, so a leaked image is going around online – Reddit and 4chan, specifically – and it’s got me super excited! It looks like a design document for the new *Resident Evil Requiem*, and it shows Leon Kennedy! He looks… older, definitely more weathered, and he’s wearing an eye patch! Capcom’s been pushing Grace Ashcroft as the main character in all their official stuff so far, but honestly, everyone’s been expecting Leon to be a big part of the game. A really reliable leaker, Dusk Golem, is even saying he’s *completely* sure Leon is actually the main character! Apparently, the game might switch between who you play as, maybe to balance action and horror. We’d heard rumors about Leon being in it, but this is the first time we’ve actually *seen* what he might look like, and it’s pretty awesome!

Leon appears noticeably worn and beaten up in this image, more so than in previous games. This makes sense considering where *Requiem* fits in the *Resident Evil* storyline. However, some fans believe this could hint at something bigger: that *Resident Evil Requiem* might be Leon’s final game, and Capcom could be planning to end his story permanently. The fact that his in-game model seems older and more weathered would fit that idea, but for now, it’s all just speculation.

It’s looking more and more like Leon will be in the new game, and Capcom is probably staying silent to create a big reveal. We won’t know for sure until Capcom officially announces it, but they’re planning to showcase *Resident Evil Requiem* at the Tokyo Game Show in September 2025, so we might not have to wait long for details.
