Surprise! Capcom has released "LEON MUST DIE FOREVER," a free minigame for Resident Evil Requiem, available now on PS5, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S, Steam, Epic Games Store, and GeForce NOW.
The new mode unlocks after finishing the main story and centers on Leon S. Kennedy battling through previously visited areas against tougher enemy variants, culminating in the final boss fight. It features five difficulty ranks, a time limit, and an enhancement gauge that fills as you defeat enemies, unlocking special "enhancer abilities" exclusive to this mode. Both the area order and ability options shuffle between runs to encourage replays. Think of it as a mini roguelike game!
The update also brings bug fixes, PC support for DualSense controller features (adaptive triggers, haptic feedback, motion sensor), and a new merch line on Amazon (shirts, sweatshirts, hoodies).
