Resident Evil Requiem Reviews
While playing Resident Evil Requiem, I felt the same excitement I used to experience when playing the classic entries of the series on the PSX. That’s the highest compliment I can give, because I didn’t expect any modern survival horror to deliver such incredible emotions again. Capcom spent a long time experimenting with a new direction for its iconic franchise, but it seems they’ve finally found the perfect balance. I also believe it’s a very strong contender for Game of the Year.

Resident Evil Requiem combines the best features of Resident Evil survival horror with those of the franchise's action games, along with the classic puzzles, jumpscares, atmosphere, and shooting that defined the series, but it does so safely.

Resident Evil Requiem is a reconciliation of the series’ roots with what it grew into, and the end result is the series as it exists today. Sometimes it’s a pure horror game, sometimes it’s a horror-themed action shooter. It never tries to be both at once, and I think that is for the better.
Resident Evil Requiem sustains suffocating tension through Grace’s vulnerability and Leon’s disciplined firepower, delivering a strategic, replayable survival horror experience that feels just about right for the franchise.
Resident Evil Requiem delivers a bloody blend of classic survival horror and frantic action. I love creeping through dark corridors with Grace, solving puzzles and hiding from zombies, just as much as I enjoy Leon’s sections, where I can let loose and land satisfying headshots. Clever level design and strong mechanical contrasts create perfectly balanced pacing while giving both characters room to shine. Impressive visuals, responsive controls, and punchy sound design round out the experience — it’s just a shame the wild ride ends after roughly ten hours.

'Resident Evil Requiem' is a polished, fun entry that nails the mechanics but leans too heavily on nostalgia and padding. It’s stronger than 'Village' though not as bold as 'RE7' — and absolutely worth playing if you’re already invested in the series.
Resident Evil Requiem, to me, is one of the series’ best. As a culmination of every game that came before, I can confidently say that the story serves as both a fitting conclusion for many threads left open over the years and a benchmark for where we can expect to go from here. It combines the best parts of virtually every modern Resident Evil title, offering the iconic horror atmosphere that pioneered a genre, incredibly satisfying combat mechanics, and immersive puzzle design that even newcomers can enjoy.
Resident Evil Requiem delivers everything fans of the series have come to expect, but rarely dares to break new ground, blending in elements that may not appeal to everyone. Those looking for a classic Resident Evil experience with solid gameplay will find more than enough content to satisfy them. However, anyone hoping for a bold leap forward for the franchise may have to wait a little longer.

Resident Evil Requiem takes the best of the modern games and remakes and smashes them together to create the best Resident Evil in years. The horror sections are expertly tuned to be terrifying without losing out on the excellent combat, and the action sections are as engaging as they are overwhelming. Both sections enhance each other through impeccable pacing. The story gets the job done, but Grace and Leon elevate the experience through their characterization. It's big, it's dumb, and it goes off the rails in all the ways the best Resident Evil games do.
Resident Evil Requiem succeeds by remembering what made the franchise iconic, vulnerability, tension, and atmosphere. While it doesn’t radically reinvent the formula, it polishes it to perfection. Fans of classic survival horror will appreciate the deliberate pacing, while newer players will enjoy its cinematic storytelling.

Easily the best Resident Evil game in many years, with inspirations from both RE2’s survival horror and RE4’s more action horror. Paced perfectly, and with plenty of surprises to discover, I can’t recommend Resident Evil Requiem highly enough.
While its underwhelming boss battles and environmental design feel like a small step back from previous entries, Resident Evil Requiem is an equally terrifying and thrilling installment in Capcom’s long-running survival horror saga. With a lengthy campaign that blends the original trilogy’s tense, methodical exploration with the action-packed set pieces that define the franchise’s modern offerings, Requiem also delivers a gripping story, making it a must-play entry that honors the series’ survival horror legacy while pushing it forward in an exciting new direction.
This is the bloodiest, boldest, and most cohesive Resident Evil yet. Capcom has delivered a survival horror experience that respects its legacy while pushing the series forward.
Resident Evil Requiem is the perfect blend of the two sides of survival horror that Resident Evil established. There's the genuinely scary survival horror, where you have to manage your items, and then the badass action side, where you can vent your aggression built up from being scared.
Resident Evil Requiem delivers a revolutionary design shift within the framework of the brand in the survival horror genre.
