Capcom's Resident Evil Requiem steals Leon's combat from Last of Us

CAPCOM will showcase Resident Evil Requiem at Gamescom 2025 for the first time. Industry insider Dusk Golem shared details about the upcoming horror game through social media. The title features open levels rather than a fully open world design. Players can explore areas like Raccoon City using available vehicles for transportation. CAPCOM continues optimizing performance for these larger environments.

The development team enhanced Leon Kennedy's combat mechanics with elements inspired by The Last of Us Part II. Grace Ashcroft serves as the official protagonist, working as an FBI technical analyst. She investigates mysterious deaths at a Raccoon City hotel where her mother perished eight years earlier. The game allows players to switch between first-person and third-person perspectives during gameplay. CAPCOM scheduled the release for February 27, 2026, across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series platforms.
