Watch On
This year’s Gamescom Opening Night Live showcase concluded with a clip from Resident Evil Requiem (before the ‘one more thing,’ at least), and sets up the story of the ninth mainline Resident Evil game with a gruesome flashback.
Requiem will star FBI analyst Grace Ashcroft, who uncovers the “hidden truth behind the outbreak in Raccoon City” while investigating her mother’s murder.
In the clip, a teenage Grace witnesses the unhappy fate of her mother in the dingy Wrenwood hotel, where she’ll return to investigate a body (“the victim of an unidentifiable disease”) eight years later, thus getting sucked into the T-virus shenanigans that all Resident Evil protagonists get sucked into.
Requiem was announced earlier this year at Summer Game Fest, and isn’t far off: It’s releasing February 27, 2026.
