The moment survival horror fans have been waiting for is almost here. Capcom has officially announced the pre-order date for the next major installment in its legendary series, Resident Evil Requiem, alongside news of a special series broadcast.

Pre-Order Date and Special Broadcast Announced
In an official post on X, Capcom confirmed that pre-orders for Resident Evil Requiem will begin on October 29th (US time).
On the same day, Capcom will also release a special video broadcast dedicated to the Resident Evil series. However, the developer has been quick to manage expectations, clarifying that this video will not feature any new gameplay footage from Requiem. With the series celebrating its 30th anniversary in 2026 (the first game was released in 1996), it's likely this broadcast will be a celebration of the franchise's incredible history.
The full release of Resident Evil Requiem is scheduled for February 27, 2026.
