Resident Evil Requiem Sees Grace’s Actions Affecting Leon: “It’s A Different Kind of Replay Value”

Throughout the history of Resident Evil, we’ve seen entries where different characters would have their own routes, their actions sometimes intersecting. Resident Evil 2 and 6 are perhaps the best examples, but in the sushi analogy that is Resident Evil Requiem, any action that Grace takes can have a direct impact on Leon. “If you switch from Grace to Leon in the same location, any enemies Grace took down stay dead for Leon, and the same goes for items on the ground,” says Nakanishi. “Antique coin upgrades in the sanatorium are exclusive to Grace, so Leon can’t pick any up. Properly upgrading Leon will become crucial, too.”Resident Evil Requiem launches on February 27th for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, PC, and Nintendo Switch 2 for $69.99.
