Resident Evil Requiem: Overview and Analysis The Resident Evil Requiem is the ninth mainline entry in the long running Resident Evil survival horror franchise developed and published by Capcom. Released for PC, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S, the game blends gameplay and narrative elements from several recent titles in the series while introducing a dual protagonist structure and a semi open world segment. Dual Protagonists and Setting The story follows two playable characters: FBI agent Grace Ashcroft, a newcomer to the series, and returning franchise veteran Leon S. Kennedy. Their separate investigations converge in Raccoon City, the location of the original outbreak that shaped many earlier events in the series. Grace Ashcroft is portrayed as cautious and easily frightened, and her gameplay sections emphasize slower exploration, puzzle solving, and tense horror encounters. In contrast, Leon S. Kennedy’s segments focus on combat heavy action. These gameplay differences reflect each character’s personality and role in the narrative. The story unfolds simultaneously for both protagonists, occasionally switching perspectives between them as the plot develops. Gameplay Design Mixed Gameplay Styles Resident Evil Requiem incorporates elements from several earlier titles, including: Puzzle focused environments reminiscent of Resident Evil 2 Action oriented combat similar to Resident Evil 4 Horror focused tension inspired by Resident Evil 7: Biohazard Semi open environments similar to Resident Evil Village Players can choose to play in either first person or third person perspective. The game recommends first person view during Grace’s segments to heighten tension. Semi Open World Section Later in the game, the structure expands into a semi open environment that allows greater freedom of movement and combat encounters. In this area, Leon’s gameplay incorporates mechanics similar to the series’ recurring The Mercenaries mode. Players earn points by defeating enemies and can spend those points on weapon upgrades, creating a score driven gameplay loop. Combat mechanics include melee counters, environmental weapon use, and weapon inventory management through the series’ attaché case system. Story Themes While Resident Evil games traditionally emphasize survival scenarios, Requiem introduces more explicit narrative themes. The story explores survivor’s guilt, regret, and remembrance, particularly in relation to the Raccoon City outbreak. Grace Ashcroft is revealed to be the daughter of Alyssa Ashcroft, a survivor of the outbreak previously seen in Resident Evil Outbreak. Her investigation centers on mysterious deaths involving former survivors of the incident. A central antagonist, Victor Gideon, appears connected to both Grace’s personal history and the broader conspiracy surrounding the murders. Meanwhile, Leon continues his own investigation into the same events, leading their storylines to intersect. Boss Fights and Puzzles Boss encounters are large in scale but follow a familiar structure commonly seen in action horror games, typically involving targeting specific weak points to defeat enemies. Puzzle elements remain present throughout the game, though they are generally designed to be accessible rather than highly complex. Graphics and Performance Resident Evil Requiem uses the RE Engine, which has powered Capcom’s major titles since Resident Evil 7. The engine is also used in games such as Dragon's Dogma II and Street Fighter 6. The game features detailed environments, dynamic lighting, and high quality character models. Environmental details and lighting effects contribute significantly to the atmosphere, particularly in darker indoor areas and abandoned locations. When played on the PlayStation 5 Pro, the game supports 4K resolution at 60 frames per second with ray tracing enabled. Players can disable ray tracing to achieve higher frame rates on compatible displays.
