The Resident Evil Requiem gamescom 2025 trailer begins with Grace Ashcroft on a bed on her computer while her mom is nearby. As she’s looking up things, she gets a call. The person on the other end asks for Ms. Ashcroft. Grace says yes. The caller hangs up. The power goes out. It’s then that her mom suggests that some undisclosed people are “here.” She insists the two leave.
It’s then that we get to see gameplay in between some of the story segments. The two start to leave the building and run into a neighbor in the hall. The person apologizes for it. However, an unknown individual kills him. The pair run away.
Grace’s mom refers to her as her “hope.” She says to never forget that. Something suddenly happens off-screen.
