More details are expected to be announced later this week.

Now that the main Resident Evil Requiem game is available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, Capcom plans to keep supporting it with free updates and a paid story expansion. Players can look forward to a Photo Mode and a new game mode arriving in May, along with a larger expansion that will explore the game’s story and world in more detail.

The game is both a commercial and critical success, achieving an impressive Metacritic score of 89 on PS5 based on 128 reviews.
