Resident Evil Requiem: Details

Resident Evil: Requiem marks the ninth mainline installment in the iconic survival horror series. The story centers on Grace Ashcroft, an FBI analyst assigned to investigate the discovery of a corpse infected with a mysterious disease found in an abandoned hotel. Capcom says the narrative will trace Grace’s investigation as it uncovers the long-buried truth behind the 1998 Raccoon City outbreak.
According to the studio, gameplay will embrace classic survival horror mechanics — blending combat, exploration, puzzle-solving, and careful resource management. Players will also have the freedom to switch between first-person and third-person perspectives during gameplay.
