With 5 million sales in the bag, Capcom has confirmed that it plans to expand on Resident Evil Requiem with new content and a story expansion. Game director Koshi Nakanishi broke the news, confirming that a photo mode will be added to the game in the near future, and in May, a minigame will also appear in Resident Evil Requiem.
Like previous mainline Resident Evil games, Resident Evil Requiem will also receive a story expansion in the future. Nakanishi teased that the expansion will “delve deeper into the world of Requiem,” and it’s now in development.
The developer also made a few jokes related to ongoing Resident Evil Requiem discourse, including a cheeky tease of a game focused on revealing who the co-protagonist Leon S. Kennedy’s wife is and a Resident Evil Match-Three puzzle game. Capcom is also working on improving Resident Evil Requiem on PC, and a recent patch introduced a number of fixes to deal with several performance issues.
It’s exciting to hear that Resident Evil Requiem is getting new story content along with additional features like a photo mode and a minigame. Capcom seems committed to keeping the game fresh and engaging for fans, especially after such impressive sales. Looking forward to seeing what they have in store!
