Resident Evil Requiem is launching to high review scores

We are still a couple of days away from being able to get our hands on Resident Evil Requiem, but if early reviews are any indication, Capcom should have another early-year hit on its hands.

The first 100+ reviews for Resident Evil Requiem all went live this afternoon. The PS5 version of the game has the most reviews, achieving an 89 overall critic score on metacritic, although the Xbox, PC and Switch 2 versions all have overall scores above 90.

The story is similar over on OpenCritic, where the game has a 96% recommendation rating and an 88 overall score based on close to 100 critic reviews.

Resident Evil Requiem is the final game in the ‘Winters Saga', which kicked off with Resident Evil 7 a number of years ago. The game is launching for PS5, Xbox Series X/S and Switch 2 on the 27th of February, with a 60FPS frame rate target across all of those platforms. A PC version is also launching this week with full access to features like higher-fidelity ray-tracing, as well as upscaling technologies like DLSS or FSR.
