The FBI has counted four murders across America, all leading to the same thing. All four have been victims of the Racoon City outbreak incident until now. There are now five bodies found, but the fifth needs examination from an FBI agent. Grace Ashcroft is sent to investigate this fifth body after remembering the traumatic events of its location, the Wrenwood Hotel.
Resident Evil Requiem is the ninth game in the Resident Evil series. This game follows Grace Ashcroft, who is an FBI agent sent to investigate where her mother had been murdered after another murder in the same building. After the events of Grace, Leon Kennedy is a part of Requiem. Leon older, wise, and they’re bringing back his combat from previous games. For Grace’s gameplay, it will be more like Ethan Winters from Resident Evil Biohazard and Resident Evil Village. Being on the scarier side, and more bare bones. Biohazard and Village are both games with a new character named Ethan Winters, with the potential appearance of an old character that returning players may recognize. Chris Redfield would proceed to save Winters during both games. But Redfield would later realize what would go wrong within the events of Village.
