Capcom announced we’ll get another look at Resident Evil Requiem this week, as there will be a showcase streaming gameplay footage of the ninth game in the series. It will air at 2pm PT/5pm ET/11pm CET on January 15, 2026. This might be the last time we get a major information drop before the game’s February 27, 2026 debut.

This won’t be a very long presentation. Capcom noted it will only last 12 minutes. It will focus on gameplay, but we don’t know if it will be taken from the Grace or Leon parts of the game. The announcement also referenced “latest info,” so it’s possible other insights about the title will come up.

Here’s the teaser trailer for the January 15, 2026 Resident Evil Requiem gameplay showcase.

Capcom’s been very vocal about what we can expect from the ninth Resident Evil game. Back in October 2025, it went over many of the Switch 2 elements, such as the Pro Controller designed to match the title and the amiibo of Grace Ashcroft. At The Game Awards 2025, Leon S Kennedy appeared as another protagonist for the title.

Resident Evil Requiem will come to the Switch 2, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC via Steam and Epic Game Store on February 27, 2026, and the gameplay showcase will appear on YouTube at 2pm PT/5pm ET/11pm CET on January 15, 2026. Resident Evil Generation Pack, with the seventh, eighth, and ninth games, will be available for the Switch 2 from February 27, 2026 to March 31, 2026.
