Why this Matters to You
If you've been curious about the critically acclaimed Resident Evil Requiem but haven't purchased it, you can now try a portion of the early game for free on your preferred platform. This may help you decide if the full game is worth your investment. The game's massive success and the recent release of a post-game minigame, 'Leon Must Die Forever,' suggest Capcom is actively supporting the title with new content, which could mean more value for players who own it.
What's Next
A story expansion for Resident Evil Requiem has already been announced, indicating more official content is on the way. The continued strong sales and critical reception could encourage Capcom to release similar demos for future major titles, potentially giving you more opportunities to try games before you buy.
