When Resident Evil Requiem debuts, it will follow the recent trend from Capcom to offer both a first-person or third-person perspective as an option when playing. The PlayStation Blog and Capcom confirmed both viewpoints will be options to choose from when going through the game.

First-person perspectives in this Capcom series are still a relatively new thing. Resident Evil 7 utilized that type of viewpoint when it debuted in 2017, and it was the only perspective offered for that installment. Capcom went on to also include it as an option in Resident Evil Village as well. However, in that game you could choose between first and third-person when you played. 

We only just learned about this ninth entry in the Resident Evil series during Summer Game Fest 2025. For the initial Resident Evil Requiem trailer, Capcom focused on including footage from cinematic scenes. We didn’t actually get to really see any gameplay from the event. It mainly focused on introducing the new protagonist Grace Ashcroft and showing how the story will bring us back to Raccoon City. 

Resident Evil Requiem will come to the PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC on February 27, 2026, and we'll learn more about it throughout 2025..

Capcom officially revealed Resident Evil 9 as Resident Evil Requiem, a new game in the survival-horror series. The reveal trailer appeared during Summer Game Fest 2025, and it showcased new character Grace Ashcroft and the ruined remains of Raccoon City after the zombie outbreak. This came after an earlier teaser during the showcase featured Executive Producer Jun Takeuchi saying Capcom would need a little more time before being announced.

First, you can check out the reveal trailer for the new Resident Evil game here. A character named Grace is the first to appear and seems to be the new protagonist.

As a reminder, Capcom announced that a new Resident Evil mainline title was in development with Resident Evil 7 Director Koshi Nakanishi back at the helm. The announcement appeared during the Capcom Next Summer 2024 broadcast back in July 1, 2024 alongside other Capcom titles.

This is Capcom's second big June 2025 reveal. It also showed Pragmata again and set a 2026 launch window for it.

Resident Evil Requiem is currently in development and will come out on February 27, 2026 for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and PC via Steam. We'll learn more about the game over the coming weeks and months.
