Report: Major Story DLC Planned for Resident Evil Titles

Leaker Dusk Golem reports Capcom will add several hours of post-launch story downloadable content to Resident Evil Requiem and the Resident Evil Code Veronica remake.

The report names Resident Evil Requiem for 2026 and the Code Veronica remake for 2027 and says each title will receive multi-hour story expansions after launch.

The alleged DLC is described as narrative-focused and longer than single-item cosmetic packs or typical multiplayer add-ons. The report does not provide exact run times, story details, pricing, or release dates for the expansions.

Dusk Golem wrote that Capcom has moved away from creating new Resident Evil spin-off titles in favor of larger single-player DLC. The leak cites a recent comment from a Capcom producer who said there “wasn’t much to report” on next-generation Resident Evil spin-offs and treats that remark as an indication resources are being redirected.

The report did not identify development teams, target platforms, or cast and crew. Capcom has not issued any confirmation or official details about downloadable content for either game.

Capcom has released post-launch content for previous Resident Evil entries, with formats and scope varying by title. Until the company provides an official announcement, the existence, scope and timing of the reported story DLC remain unverified.
