‘Resident Evil Requiem’ Trailer Gives a Closer Look At New Protagonist’s Past
Today, Capcom took center stage at Gamescom Opening Night Live 2025 with a new trailer for highly anticipated video game Resident Evil Requiem.
Set 30 years after the outbreak in Raccoon City, Resident Evil Requiem follows Grace on a new case where the young FBI analyst must return to the scene and face her tragic memories. This new era of survival horror is creeping to PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam on February 27, 2026.
In the new trailer below, we meet a younger Grace with her mother, investigative reporter and Raccoon City survivor Alyssa Ashcroft from Resident Evil Outbreak. It feels safe to say that this scene will play a huge role in adult Grace’s return to Raccoon City thanks to residual trauma. At the very least it’s not looking good for a couple characters in the new clip.
Requiem will also offer first-person camera and the series’ traditional third-person camera. What that means is that Requiem will allow players to swap between first-person and third-person perspectives through the Options menu at any point during gameplay, another detail revealed in the new trailer.
According to Resident Evil Requiem director Koshi Nakanishi, the upcoming game will stay true to the series’ Survival Horror roots, but highlight “a kind of thrill” to the action.
The new game arrives just ahead of a major milestone; the Resident Evil series will also celebrate its 30th anniversary in March 2026. So expect to hear a lot more about Requiem and the beloved video game series in the coming months.

Definitive Edition of Throwback Survival Horror Game ‘Doctor Viscera’ Launches June 23 [Trailer]
For those who enjoy their survival horror gaming with a side of old-school cheese, you have Liminal Road’s Doctor Viscera. Released last October on Steam, the game is set to receive its Definitive Edition next week on June 23rd, with plans for a release on consoles to be shared soon. The Doctor Viscera: Definitive Edition will include a variety of improvements, adjustments, and new content designed to make the experience even more intense. All of this content will be available free to existing owners.
For those not in the know, Doctor Viscera is a throwback survival horror title with PSX-inspired visuals, where you must escape the abandoned GrimmHaus Asylum. You must explore the asylum’s various rooms, find useful items, and solve puzzles to unlock new areas and discover escape routes. At the same time, you’ll need to be on the lookout for the Doctor and his grotesque experiments.
The biggest addition to the Definitive Edition is the Nurse, a brand-new enemy who will actively pursue players throughout the campaign. Although slower than the eponymous doctor, the nurse introduces a completely different gameplay dynamic by using ranged attacks with a firearm, forcing players to rethink their routes, strategies, and survival tactics.
Under certain circumstances, you can disarm the Nurse, creating entirely new situations and possibilities within the game.
Doctor Viscera: Definitive Edition also introduces a new area to the map, featuring a tram system. In addition to serving as a new exploration route, it can also be used to quickly escape pursuers and travel between different sections of the asylum.
The update also brings improvements across multiple aspects of the experience, including:
- Level design changes
- Puzzle redesigns
- Performance optimizations
- New immersive audio system
- Controller support
- New menu interfaces
