The game is releasing on February 27, 2026
Capcom’s upcoming survival horror title Resident Evil Requiem is all set to launch on February 27, 2026, and fans are pretty excited for it. This time, the action and horror survival will be doubled with two protagonists: Leon and Grace.
Ahead of the game’s release, the game producer, Masato Kumazawa, has revealed some details about the campaign’s playtime. Let’s check out more details in this article.
Resident Evil Requiem will have playtime similar to RE4 Remake
Recently, in an interview, the producer, Masato Kumazawa, has reportedly confirmed that the new RE9 is aiming to have a similar playtime to Resident Evil 4 Remake. This means that they are looking around for 16-17 hours.
This will be a major increase in the playtime compared to Resident Evil 7 and Resident Evil Village, which were often criticized for having a shorter campaign that typically lasted around 8-10 hours for most players.
The extended length for the game seems to be a direct response to the fans’ feedback. While the previous installments garnered positive feedback for their gameplay and atmosphere, many players thought that the shorter tale did not fully warrant a full-priced AAA experience.
Capcom appears to be striving for a more substantial journey with Requiem, which combines action and horror aspects.
Conclusion
This time, the game’s narrative will be evenly split between two protagonists: veteran legend Leon Kennedy and newcomer Grace.
Each character will have a different tone and experience in the game. Rumors also state that Resident Evil Requiem might resemble Resident Evil 4 Remake, featuring chapter-based progression with similar passing and distribution.
