When Capcom first revealed Resident Evil Requiem in Summer Game Fest 2025 earlier this month, Grace Ashcroft–who might just be the daughter of Resident Evil Outbreak’s Alyssa Ashcroft–was front and center. She is an FBI agent tasked with investigating a series of mysterious deaths, which ties into the incident at Raccoon City.

But whether that actually disqualifies Leon from appearing in Resident Evil Requiem remains to be seen. Capcom hasn’t quite ruled out the former Raccoon City police department rookie from showing up in the game, or even being playable.

Capcom reveals that Resident Evil Requiem could have been very different before it was returned to the single-player format.
