Resident Evil Requiem Ends the Umbrella Era to Open a New Chapter
Resident Evil Requiem serves as a capstone for the franchise’s sprawling lore, tying together threads from RE6, RE7, Village and more while deconstructing key past monsters. Built as a two-campaign, first-person survival-horror entry led by Leon, it cleans house by eliminating old Umbrella-era threats, revealing Elpis as a final antidote, and positioning The Connections as the new overarching antagonist—setting the stage for a clearer, forward-looking arc for the series.
