Resident Evil Requiem: SHOCKING Reveal This Week?! Don't Miss It!

Resident Evil Requiem: SHOCKING Reveal This Week?! Don't Miss It!
Gaming News 13 January 2026

Alright, zombie fans, mark your calendars! Capcom just dropped the news we've all been waiting for: a dedicated showcase for the upcoming *Resident Evil Requiem*. Get ready to dive deep into the darkness, because this Thursday, January 15th, promises to be a juicy one.

Resident Evil Requiem: SHOCKING Reveal This Week?!...

So, when exactly should you set your alarms? The showcase kicks off at 10 PM UK time. Now, for us here in the States, that breaks down to 2 PM PST, 3 PM MST, 4 PM CST, and a reasonable 5 PM EST. Perfect timing to catch it after work, grab a snack, and prepare to be spooked.

What can we expect? Capcom's being pretty clear: this is all about *Resident Evil Requiem*. They've confirmed gameplay footage and plenty of news. While the presentation is only slated to run for about 12 minutes, that's more than enough time to get our pulses racing, right? I mean, a well-placed jump scare only needs a second!

And speaking of what to expect from *Requiem* itself, the hype is real. It's launching on February 27th for PC, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch 2 (yes, Switch 2!), and Xbox Series X/S. We're seeing the return of the legendary Leon Kennedy, which is always a win. Plus, we're getting introduced to Grace Ashcroft, the daughter of Alyssa Ashcroft from the cult classic *Resident Evil Outbreak*. Talk about a legacy! And, if those leaked store page rumors hold true, we might even see another familiar face popping up from the earlier installments. Fingers crossed!

Let's be honest, PC launches can be…tricky. Remember the *Monster Hunter Wilds* kerfuffle? Capcom took the hit, learned their lesson. Good on them for reassuring fans that they're actively optimizing *Resident Evil Requiem* for PC. Nobody wants a glitchy zombie apocalypse, am I right?

The real kicker? Our very own Alex actually got some hands-on time with *Resident Evil Requiem*. And, I gotta say, his report has me seriously hyped. Apparently, even a short play session elicited screams loud enough to be heard in neighboring booths! "Truly terrifying" were his exact words. If that's not a recommendation, I don't know what is. Thursday can't come soon enough!
