Resident Evil Requiem[a] is an upcoming survival horror game developed and published by Capcom. 

 

The game features a new protagonist, FBI agent Grace Ashcroft, who is dispatched to investigate mysterious deaths at the hotel in which her mother died eight years before. Requiem will be the first Resident Evil game since Resident Evil Zero (2002) to take place in the fictional Raccoon City, and will explore the city after its destruction in Resident Evil 3: Nemesis (1999). It is scheduled for release on February 27, 2026, for PlayStation 5, Windows, and Xbox Series X/S.

Fresh off Resident Evil Requiem’s reveal, I joined Capcom for a shudder-inducing gameplay presentation before diving into the terrifying preview myself. RE9’s first innovation comes straight from the options menu — players can choose whether to step into Grace Ashford’s shoes in first- or third-person perspective with a simple toggle. It’s a choice that ensures players will get to confront oncoming horrors in the playstyle they prefer. 

 

As for Grace, the section running on PS5 Pro opened on her waking to every girl’s worst nightmare — strapped to an upside-down hospital bed in an unknown location with her blood being drawn from an IV. While scared of her surroundings, the resourceful FBI agent frees herself and explores the dark halls of what reveals itself to be a chronic care facility. Shadows looked hauntingly crisp, and every corner and step invites deep breaths and scared shudders from Grace — a valid response, especially since I was fully shouting at the chaos she faces while working her way through a gated hallway. A promising overture to the horrors to come.

Per previews (Grace's segment), players has option to choose in first- or third-person perspective. According to previewers, Grace's segment is inspired by Alien Isolation (running and hiding). 

 

I believe first person for Grace's segment and third-person for Leon's segment.

That is what is being heavily rumoured & how it should be prioritised IMO.

 

Best of both designs by RE.
