Producer says Resident Evil Requiem began as an online game

gamingOct 9, 202619246

Resident Evil Requiem is in a new moment after a producer revealed it began life as an online game before becoming the current release, and fans are recontextualizing what they loved about it. Conversations center on Grace Ashcroft’s traumatic Wrenwood Hotel arc and the comic, loving contrast of Victor Gideon, with players pointing to the RPD ruins scene and the “Hey, Lieutenant Branagh. Kennedy, reporting for duty.” line as unexpectedly emotional beats. That mix of humor and heartbreak shows up in streams and replays, with one player noting they rolled credits on the Switch 2 version and others scheduling bonus streams to revisit the game now that its origins are public.
