I love a spooky atmosphere and an unsettling tone that creeps under your skin, and I’m not afraid to admit that Resident Evil Requiem got me good. The whole thing felt reminiscent of Mr. X from Resident Evil 2 Remake, more emergent and surprising than the scripted Nemesis sequences in Resident Evil 3. And that’s exactly what I want from Resident Evil — unpredictability that ratchets up the tension. This is the same Resident Evil you know and love, but darker and grimier than ever before. Resident Evil Requiem launches on February 27, 2026, for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
