"It's a fascinating experience, one that combines the guns-blazing action of Resident Evil 4 with the first-person terror that originated with Resident Evil 7. In a lot of ways, it's the best of both worlds, as our review explains."
"My colleague Jay Peters and I have been playing the game ahead of launch and will be answering questions from Verge subscribers right here. So if you're curious about how the dual characters and perspective switching work, or are wondering if you should play with the lights on (yes, you should), this is the place."
Resident Evil Requiem is the first new mainline Resident Evil game since Village in 2021, arriving February 27th. The game merges the action-heavy combat mechanics of Resident Evil 4 with the immersive first-person perspective and terror elements introduced in Resident Evil 7. Players control dual characters with perspective-switching capabilities throughout the experience. The game performs well on Nintendo Switch 2. Reviewers recommend playing with lights on for optimal horror atmosphere. The title represents a significant blend of the franchise's recent directional shifts, combining accessibility and action with psychological horror elements.
