Resident Evil Requiem release date, platforms, and trailer revealed at Summer Game Fest 2025

Capcom has officially unveiled Resident Evil Requiem, the ninth main installment in its iconic survival horror franchise, with a release date scheduled for February 27, 2026. The announcement came during Summer Game Fest 2025 in Los Angeles, making it one of the standout reveals at the end of the presentation. The game was introduced through a surprise trailer approximately 20 minutes after Capcom first teased the future of the Resident Evil series earlier in the show. That initial segment acknowledged the franchise's upcoming 30th anniversary in March 2026 but stopped short of revealing any new footage or specific details. In a video message shared prior to the trailer reveal, Capcom game director Jun Takeuchi thanked fans for their continued support. 'Thanks to all of you, Resident Evil is about to celebrate its 30th anniversary this coming March,' Takeuchi said. 'We truly appreciate your continued support… bear with us a little longer… and it'll be ready.' Resident Evil Requiem will launch on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. The new game follows 2021's Resident Evil Village, which was the franchise's eighth mainline title. The original Resident Evil was released in 1996 for the PlayStation, created by Shinji Mikami and Tokuro Fujiwara. The series has since evolved into a major multimedia franchise, with numerous sequels, remakes, and adaptations for film and television, solidifying its place in video game history. With Requiem, Capcom looks to honor the legacy of the franchise while pushing the survival horror genre into its next chapter. The reveal closed out Summer Game Fest 2025 on a high note and has already generated strong excitement among fans.
