Resident Evil: Requiem – Sony Playstation 5 (2026)

Resident Evil: Requiem serves as a dual-perspective bridge between the franchise’s survival horror roots and its high-octane action evolution. The story follows rookie FBI analyst Grace Ashcroft and veteran agent Leon S. Kennedy as they are drawn into a nightmare at a high-tech medical care centre that harbors dark secrets tied to the ruins of Raccoon City. Gameplay is split between these two: Grace’s segments focus on intense, first-person psychological horror where she must sneak past a persistent stalker known as “The Girl,” while Leon’s chapters provide a third-person action experience featuring his signature parrying mechanics and a new, heavy-hitting hand axe. Since its launch, the game has received strong reviews, currently sitting as one of the fastest-selling entries in the series; critics have praised its “grotesquely gorgeous” RE Engine visuals on the PS5 and its ability to balance genuine scares with “nostalgia-heavy” fan service, though some noted that the inventory management for Grace can feel a bit tedious.
