Resident Evil Requiem World Premiere Trailer | gamescom Opening Night Live 2025 – YouTube
One of the biggest questions surrounding Resident Evil Requiem is the fate of Leon Kennedy. The trailers include multiple nods to Raccoon City, which raises the possibility of cameos or appearances from other franchise staples like Chris Redfield, Claire Redfield, Jill Valentine, and more — whether playable or not.
Capcom has described Leon as “quite a bad match for horror” and has positioned Grace Ashcroft as “the new main character.” That stance appears firm — though final confirmation will come when Resident Evil Requiem launches on February 27.
Opinion: The latest Requiem trailer makes a compelling case that Grace Ashcroft — not returning favorite Leon Kennedy — could be the fraught, anxious protagonist best suited to deliver the series’ most terrifying chapter yet.
