Resident Evil Requiem (RE9) Overview
Resident Evil Requiem is an upcoming action, horror thriller from Capcom and the long-awaited ninth mainline installment in their legendary, genre-defining Resident Evil series. As the iconic series celebrates its 30th anniversary next year, this new entry will rejuvenate and introduce a new ear of the Resident Evil franchise.
Take on the role of the Resident Evil's new protagonist Grace Ashcroft, an FBI technical analyst who investigates a series of strange and mysterious deaths linked to an unindentified disease. She was ordered to return to the scene of her mothers' murder, which forces her to face her dark past.

With some of the city still standing amidst its destruction, players can revisit and delve deeper into this decaying, post-apocalyptic city.
