Everything Announced In Yesterday’s Resident Evil Showcase

What is Elpis?

Another thing we learn with Leon’s involvement in the game is the secret that he is carrying that comes into play involving Elpis, and its connection to the murder of Grace’s mother, Alyssa. It plays a key part of the game.

Gameplay Mechanics

They also discussed the gameplay for both characters, which has been described by the game’s director as different games when it comes to Grace and Leon. Grace’s gameplay is a callback to Resident Evil 2 and 7, which explored the horror aspect and survival. Leon’s gameplay focuses on the style of Resident Evil 4, bringing players a sense of tension and thrills that included hands-on dynamic action.

Launching on Nvidia’s GeFORCE NOW

In the final portion of this Showcase, it focused on joining Nvidia’s GEFORCE NOW Cloud Service. It has been confirmed that the title was developed in collaboration with NVIDIA with the promise that a wide range of PC users can enjoy it. Capcom has been working with NVIDIA, showing viewers samples of the game with RTX, path tracing for realistic graphics, and AI-powered NVIDIA DLSS4 4 with Multi Frame Generation for incredibly fast performance. It will make the game more accessible across a wide range of PCs, but hearing that AI being involved left viewers disappointed.

Resident Evil: Requiem is coming to Xbox, PC, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch 2 on February 27, 2026.
