One of the most anticipated titles of this year, Resident Evil Requiem, is all set to release next month, on February 27, 2026. Capcom has recently revealed the game’s full advantages on PS5 and PS5 Pro.

The game will offer enhanced immersion through advanced controller features, upgraded visuals, and flexible performance modes. The new information comes from an interview with Requiem director Koshi Nakanishi, published on the official PlayStation Blog.

Director reveals Resident Evil Requiem PS5 Pro advantages

According to Nakanishi, one of the biggest areas of focus during the development was deep integration with the PlayStation DualSense controller.

Capcom has heavily leaned into the adaptive triggers, haptic feedback, and the controller’s built-in speaker, which will heighten the gameplay and immersion of this horror survival.

Players will be able to feel subtle sensations such as enemy bites, weapon triggers, and environmental interactions directly through the controller. These are not limited to combat only.

There are certain puzzles that will also use haptics and audio cues in creative ways. One example is a jewelry box puzzle in which players can physically “feel” the gems shifting inside, offering a tactile layer to problem-solving that goes beyond typical sights and sound design.

Technical advantages with PS5 Pro

When it comes to technical sides, PS5 Pro owners will see notable performance upgrades in Resident Evil Requiem. The game supports native 4K resolution at 60 frames per second with full ray tracing enabled.

For gamers who choose frames over graphics, a high-performance option supports frame rates of up to 120fps, with an average of 90fps.

Nakanishi noted that greater frame rates considerably improve realism, making environments feel more solid and responsive.

Conclusion

Resident Evil Requiem is the ninth mainline entry in Capcom’s long-running survival horror franchise and will release on February 27, 2026, on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PC and Switch 2.

This time, we will have two protagonists: FBI analyst Grace Ashcroft and legendary agent Leon S. Kennedy. Grace will offer more scaredy cat survival and stealth gameplay, while Leon will be all about explosive combat.
