Kennedy and Grace Ashcroft&#8217;s adventures in Raccoon City, now is the time to do so, according to Requiem&#8217;s development team. <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">&#8220;It&#8217;s a mini-game, and it&#8217;s based on the battles in the main game,&#8221; director Koshi Nakanishi said in an interview with Japanese site Denfaminicogamer (via machine translation). &#8220;For those who have cleared the main story and are thinking, &#8216;I still haven&#8217;t had enough fun!&#8217;, I think you&#8217;ll be able to enjoy this and go &#8216;Whoa!!&#8217;, so sharpen your hatchet and wait.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">&#8220;This mini-game is content that is unlocked after clearing the main story,&#8221; added producer Masato Kumazawa. &#8220;So, if you&#8217;re planning to play it, clearing the main story during [upcoming Japanese holiday] Golden Week would be just right for you to be able to play it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span data-cy=\"slideshow-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<div data-cy=\"slideshow-preview\" class=\"jsx-1711207865 slideshow-preview\">\n<h3 class=\"title5 jsx-62124236 jsx-1085005187\" data-cy=\"slideshow-preview-title\">Resident Evil Requiem &#8211; Leon Gameplay<\/h3>\n<div data-cy=\"slideshow-images-container\" class=\"jsx-1711207865 images-container\"><button type=\"button\" data-cy=\"hero-image\" aria-label=\"Open Slideshow\" class=\"jsx-1711207865 hero-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt aria-hidden=\"true\" role=\"presentation\" class=\"progressive-image jsx-2021719738 image aspect-ratio aspect-ratio-16-9 jsx-2605834259 jsx-2338608387 hover-opacity\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/imdbnews.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/resident-evil-requiems-new-mode-requires-a-completed-save-file-to-access.gif\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"><span class=\"button-text jsx-729543028 button button--primary jsx-3381835873 jsx-4266531355 row-pagination-button next contained centered round large\" data-cy=\"paginate next\" title=\"Open Slideshow\"><span class=\"ign-icon right-chevron jsx-2750866048 jsx-2919720488\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-cy=\"right-chevron\"><\/span><\/span><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Fans believe this new mode will likely be Requiem&#8217;s version of the series usual Mercenaries offering, which typically offers wave-based action in familiar areas and the chance to play as other characters. Indeed, Resident Evil veterans are hoping to finally see Sherry join the action, or potentially play as Requiem baddie Zeno.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Beyond this, Requiem will get a meatier addition in the form of proper story DLC at some point in the future, though Nakanishi confirmed this was still some way off. Whether this will answer the mystery of Leon&#8217;s new piece of jewellery, however, remains to be seen. Asked about Leon&#8217;s relationship status, Nakanishi said that more would likely be revealed \u2014 someday. &#8220;But,&#8221; the director concluded, &#8220;that &#8216;someday&#8217; isn&#8217;t now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Capcom recently confirmed that Resident Evil Requiem had sold a stunning 7 million copies, enough that it has raised its profit forecast for the year. Not played it yet? There&#8217;s still time before the new mode arrives to get the game finished. &#8220;Resident Evil Requiem successfully splices two separate strains of survival horror together into the one highly infectious new mutation,&#8221; IGN wrote, awarding the game 9\/10 in our Resident Evil Requiem review.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\"><em>Tom Phillips is IGN&#8217;s News Editor.
