Resident Evil Requiem will follow a new heroine, Grace Ashcroft, but that last name should ring a bell for any fans of the Outbreak series. In a new trailer shown during Gamescom Opening Night Live 2025 today, we get to see a little bit of Grace’s backstory and history with her mom, Resident Evil Outbreak’s Alyssa Ashcroft.
Alyssa is a field reporter and playable character from the Outbreak series, now playing a major role in Resident Evil Requiem. She’s the mother of Requiem’s lead, Grace Ashcroft, and looks to be on the run from some dangerous foes. After a mysterious phone call and a power outage, we get a brief look at a playable section where the player, as Grace, follows Alyssa through the darkened and foreboding hotel hallways.
Spare a thought for the world’s most doomed hotel manager, as a terrible fate befalls him, and the pair escape. Seeing the dynamics between mother and daughter here seems to emphasize this as a thematic thread for the main game, but we’ll have to wait and see for more.
The wait’s not that long, though, as Capcom confirmed Resident Evil Requiem’s release date during this year’s Summer Game Fest back in June. The next mainline entry arrives on February 27, 2026, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. For more on it, check out our preview from SGF 2025.
