Resident Evil Requiem Pre-Load Live on PC, Global Launch Timings Revealed

The release of Capcom’s Resident Evil Requiem for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, PC, and Nintendo Switch 2 is almost here! If you pre-ordered the game on PC, you can now download it. Depending on where you live, you might even be able to start playing before everyone else.

Players in Los Angeles will be able to start playing on February 26th at 9 PM Pacific Time. Everyone else on consoles worldwide can begin at midnight local time. PC players outside the US will need to wait until 9 PM Pacific Time. This staggered release means there’s a chance players on consoles might experience spoilers before others.

Things get a little tricky for players in Mexico City and Sao Paulo. They’ll get access to the new Nintendo Switch 2 on February 26th at 11 PM CST and February 27th at 2 AM local time, instead of at midnight like most other places. No matter where you are, be careful to avoid spoilers on launch day! Capcom has said they’ve done everything they can to make sure everyone has a great, unspoiled experience from the very beginning.

The upcoming game Resident Evil Requiem will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC. A new trailer shows Leon S. Kennedy going back to the Raccoon City Police Department and facing new horrors.
