Resident Evil Requiem is the ninth main installment of the best-selling survival horror series, started in 1996 by the game Resident Evil. It was developed and published by Capcom.
The game offers a choice of perspective: first-person (FPP) or third-person (TPP). The camera position can be changed at any moment. Unlike most of the previous installments in the series, which were pure survival horrors, in Resident Evil Requiem the developers decided to take a turn towards psychological horror. Nonetheless, the fast-paced action and other elements that the series is famous for have been preserved here.
The main character of Resident Evil Requiem is Grace Ashcroft. She is the daughter of Alyssa Ashcroft, a journalist known from the Resident Evil Outbreak sub-series, who exposed the illegal activities of the Umbrella Corporation. The protagonist, who is an FBI agent, is sent to destroyed Raccoon City. It is now the epicenter of a biological disaster of global scale and a place where her mother was murdered eight years earlier.
Resident Evil Requiem uses the RE Engine technology, which is Capcom's engine used by the company in most of its productions. The creators paid attention to the quality of the graphic design, especially to the facial expressions and skin textures, thanks to which we can see drops of sweat on character models.
