Resident Evil: Requiem – The Nightmare Returns

Returning to the shadows of Raccoon City, Resident Evil: Requiem serves as the ninth main chapter in this legendary survival horror series.

The story follows new protagonist Grace Ashcroft, an FBI analyst investigating the eerie Wrenwood Hotel, alongside the return of seasoned agent Leon S. Kennedy. Built on the advanced RE Engine, the game allows you to switch between first and third-person perspectives, blending the classic, tense atmosphere of early titles with high-octane action.

With its release on 27 February 2026, it is time to check if your current setup is ready to face the intelligent new zombie strains and the terrifying "Path Tracing" lighting effects that make every corner a potential threat.

Resident Evil Requiem | 4K Path Tracing & NVIDIA DLSS 4 Trailer

The latest entry in the iconic survival horror franchise, Resident Evil Requiem, pushes the boundaries of visual fidelity. This trailer highlights the terrifying atmosphere of the game, enhanced by cutting-edge NVIDIA RTX technologies.

Why Specs Matter for Requiem

Choosing the right hardware is about more than just meeting minimum requirements; it is about immersion. With the ability to swap between first and third-person perspectives, your PC needs to render varied FOVs without losing sharpness. High-end components allow for better "Global Illumination," which is essential for a game where light is literally a weapon.

By investing in a capable rig, you ensure that the only thing making you jump is the gameplay, not a sudden drop in performance.
