Resident Evil Requiem has officially launched. Players on both consoles and PC can now experience the latest chapter in Capcom’s iconic horror franchise, as the web is rapidly becoming saturated with gameplay showcases and performance analyses.
Every piece of footage reaffirms that Capcom has pushed graphical fidelity to its zenith, extracting the absolute maximum from contemporary hardware. While the stunning character models, intricate environments, and oppressive atmosphere are present across all platforms, the PC version delivers a true “showstopper” effect, highlighting the full potential of modern graphics cards.
Exclusive to the PC is the inclusion of full path tracing—an advanced NVIDIA technology that calculates global illumination, reflections, and shadows with significantly more depth than standard ray tracing. Critics are already hailing it as a transformative leap and a “true next-generation project.”
The Digital Dreams channel recently showcased Resident Evil Requiem running on Ultra settings with an RTX 5090. They described the title as “the most photorealistic next-gen game of 2026.” The interplay of high-resolution textures, dynamic lighting, and hyper-detailed puddle reflections creates an extraordinary visual feast for owners of enthusiast-grade PCs.
