If you’re eagerly awaiting Resident Evil Requiem’s full release, there’s a good chance you’re also wondering if a demo will give us a taste of what’s to come before the title’s highly-anticipated full launch.
A potential Resident Evil Requiem demo would follow in the footsteps of recent entries in Capcom’s acclaimed survival horror series, which have benefited from short playable slices that showcase a portion of the full game. They aimed not just to convince players who might be on the fence regarding a potential purchase, but also give dedicated fans an early opportunity to immerse themselves in the titles’ atmospheres.
Resident Evil Requiem Demo
Unfortunately, Capcom has yet to confirm a Resident Evil Requiem demo, which could be concerning given how close to launch we are.
The developer appears fully focused on ensuring that the next entry in the series, which splits its gameplay between more survival-horror-focused sections where we play as Grace and action-packed romps where we control Leon, comes out in as good a shape as possible.
This could mean it will skip releasing a Resident Evil Requiem demo this time.
Lacking an official announcement, we cannot rule out a playable slice of the game dropping closer to launch or even at launch, for those still undecided about whether to jump in.
All we can do is wait and see how things unfold. Should a Resident Evil Requiem demo be on the cards, Capcom will likely make an official announcement, which we will be monitoring.

Capcom sometimes releases timed or limited demos. If a timed demo (e.g., “only playable for 10 minutes”) is announced, we will update this page with dates and access instructions.
Do I need to pre-order to access a demo?
If Capcom offers a demo tied to pre-orders or incentives, we will add that information here once it is officially confirmed. Historically, most Resident Evil demos were made available to all players without a pre-order, but we’ll clarify whether and when that will happen.
