The upcoming week holds notable developments for Resident Evil Requiem. Rumors that no new information would be shared during Tokyo Game Show 2025, combined with recent leaks, have continuously fueled excitement. The announcement that Leon Scott Kennedy might be included in the game, although not officially confirmed yet, is exciting fans. Bringing back Leon appears to be a long-awaited development amidst the uncertainties following Resident Evil 6.
The emergence of a document reportedly belonging to Capcom has intensified discussions on this topic. The leaked document dated May 14, 2025, mentions that Leon Scott Kennedy will appear in Requiem and will resemble Big Boss. Illustrations in the document suggest that an aging Leon might look different from his appearances in previous games. The leak also includes depictions of a walking dead R.P.D. officer and a creature resembling a two-headed dog.
These developments strengthen expectations that Capcom will reignite horror. While the countdown to Tokyo Game Show 2025 continues and no new information is expected during the event itself, a possible announcement during a State of Play could officially confirm Leon’s presence in the series’ new game. A message shared by social media user Aesthetic Gamer indicated that Leon’s announcement is expected next week. However, the certainty of this depends on the developers’ marketing plans. The post shares circumstantial information related to the topic with the public.
