Resident Evil 9: Requiem Announced At Summer Game Fest, Release Date Revealed

Summer
Game
Fest
2025
closed
out
with
a
massive
reveal:
Resident
Evil
9,
or
as
it’s
actually
titled,
Resident
Evil:
Requiem.

Not
only
did
Capcom
opt
to
reveal
the
latest
entry
in
the
iconic
Resident
Evil
franchise,
they
also
decided
to
announce
the
release
date.
February
27,
2026
is
the
day
to
mark
in
your
calendar.

Keighly
described
it
as
a
bold
shift
in
both
tone
and
gameplay
for
the
series.

The
trailer
introduces
Grace
Ashcroft,
a
woman
with
a
very
familiar
last
name.
She’s
working
for
the
FBI
as
a
technical
analyst
at
a
desk
piled
high
with
folders
and
paperwork.
Her
boss
summons
her
to
his
office
and
explains
another
body
has
been
found,
this
time
at
the
very
same
hotel
her
mother
was
murdered
at.
From
there,
things
get
weird
as
Grace
beings
having
what
seem
to
be
flashbacks,
before
the
camera
hard
cuts
to
her
tied
to
a
bed
in
an
unknown
location.
And
that’s
when
the
horror
starts
making
itself
known.
