Few series do dread like Resident Evil. Resident Evil Requiem is the next mainline chapter — here is whether it earns your money.

Horror, done by the masters

Built on the RE Engine, Requiem delivers the tension the series is famous for: dark corridors, scarce ammo, and the constant feeling that something is close.

Tension over spectacle

Expect careful pacing and resource management rather than wall-to-wall action. That restraint is exactly what makes the scares land.

Who should buy it

Horror fans and anyone who loved RE2 Remake or Village. If you want a game that gets under your skin, Requiem is an easy recommendation.
