About the Resident Evil Requiem

Resident Evil: Requiem is survival horror — ninth in the mainline series, thirty years in. You can switch between first- and third-person whenever you want. Grace Ashcroft, FBI analyst. Leon S. Kennedy, DSO. Their cases aren't connected at first. Then they are, and both lead somewhere neither of them wanted to go: back to Raccoon City.

Search every room, hold your ground in fights, work through the puzzles, and watch what you spend. Every corridor has something worth finding and something worth fearing.

Switch between first- and third-person whenever the moment calls for it — in combat, on the move, or just taking in the space around you.

Two protagonists. Two stories that slowly pull toward each other. One is about staying alive and finding a way out. The other hits harder, moves faster, plays differently. Same world. Not the same game. Requiem makes its case through the dual-protagonist structure and a viewpoint system that actually changes how you play, holding onto the fear the series built its name on while putting more control in your hands. The series hasn't felt this sure of itself in a long time. Go in expecting something measured, precise, and genuinely unsettling.

Resident Evil Requiem Steam Review

Requiem ties survival horror, investigation, and puzzles together, giving you the freedom to swap between first and third-person at any point as either Grace Ashcroft or Leon S. Kennedy. Coming back to Raccoon City after all this time, the game leans hard into atmosphere and resource pressure — exactly the kind of experience longtime RE fans have been waiting for.

The two campaigns cover different emotional ground but feed into the same story. Grace's side is slower and heavier, built around investigation and a creeping sense of dread. Leon's side of things plays out faster and hits harder, with combat taking the lead. Some players feel the constant switching between the two protagonists breaks the momentum, but for most, the story and the reason to come back for another run make it easy to look past.

What players and critics are saying:

• Best Resident Evil atmosphere since RE2 Remake
• Perspective-switching adds real gameplay depth
• Satisfying resource management and puzzle design
• Dual-campaign pacing can feel uneven at times
• High system requirements for max visual fidelity

If you're a survival horror fan or have any history with Resident Evil Requiem is one of 2026's strongest reasons to sit down and play — and a serious contender for horror game of the year.
