Is Resident Evil Requiem on Xbox Game Pass

Resident Evil Requiem is the 9th mainline game in the series. We were able to get a hands-off preview of the title back in August, coming away impressed with its setting and graphical fidelity. Let’s take a look and find out if this one is coming to Xbox Game Pass or not.

Hands-off Preview

Capcom invited us to a behind-closed-doors theater presentation featuring 30 minutes of Resident Evil (9) Requiem gameplay, and it looked… fine?

Now don’t get me wrong, graphically Resident Evil Requiem is a stunner. The RE Engine is particularly impressive in non-open-world titles. We got to see the gameplay after the FBI agent-woman was strung upside-down on a gurney from the trailer. Her blood is being drawn, and in a series of moves, she smashes the bottle holding it, cuts herself loose, and immediately starts panting in terror.

From what this demo showed, mixed with leaks like those from Dusk Golem, RE9 is looking to blend the horror of 7 and potentially the bombastic combat of 4 Remake. In this demo, we saw a pre-recorded 30-ish minutes on a PS5 Pro. It took place inside a dilapidated building full of cherub keys, barely working lights, and one gigantic and hungry monster. She was a big lady, straight out of our nightmares. Instead of stepping on you, she’ll bite your head off and swallow it whole.

Is Resident Evil Requiem on Xbox Game Pass?

Unfortunately, Resident Evil Requiem is not releasing on Xbox Game Pass day one. This means every tier in the service, at least for now, as you never know what may change. The game, however, is releasing on the Xbox platform (alongside PS5 and PC). You’ll need to purchase the game on Xbox, PS5, Steam or another PC game store if you want to experience the full extent of this survival horror title from the masters at Capcom

Will you be playing Resident Evil Requiem when it releases? How do you feel about your current Xbox Game Pass subscription, if you have one?

If you’re looking to be a bigger part of an amazing community, then either choice is a good one!
