While its commercial success is almost guaranteed, Resident Evil Requiem will first have to go through the (almost) crucial stage of getting reviewed by the specialist press. The reviews will obviously have to be published before the game’s scheduled launch on February 27.
Insider Dusk Golem has now revealed that the review embargo is set for February 25, 2026, at 3 p.m. GMT. Resident Evil Requiem will have its work cut out for it if it hopes to beat Resident Evil 4, which remains the highest-rated game in the series with a Metacritic average of 96%.
