Resident Evil Requiem demo is now available

Resident Evil Requiem now has a playable demo, which means everyone can voluntarily ruin their evening with dim corridors, bad noises and a strong suspicion that the next door is a mistake. Capcom has released the demo across PS5, Xbox Series, Switch 2 and PC through Steam and the Epic Games Store.

It lets players experience part of the game’s early stages, although save data will not carry over to the full version. Requiem is already positioned as a major new step for the series, combining the story of FBI analyst Grace Ashcroft with the return of Leon S.

Kennedy. That dual-perspective setup gives Capcom a lot of room: psychological vulnerability on one side, veteran survival-action competence on the other. The demo now has to do the most important horror-marketing job possible: make players scared, impressed and annoyed that it ends too soon.
