======================================================================New 
leaks seem to confirm that Leon S. Kennedy will be in Resident Evil Requiem 
Cover art found on the PlayStation Store shows an older Leon and Grace 
Ashcroft, suggesting Leon will be a playable character A separate leak on 
GameStop also lists cosmetic items for Rose Winters 

After much fan speculation, Sony has seemingly confirmed that Leon S. Kennedy 
will be featured in Resident Evil Requiem . 

As reported by IGN , the information comes from the PlayStation Store, which 
revealed new cover art for Requiem featuring the game's playable protagonist, 
Grace Ashcroft, and behind her, an older, more rugged-looking Leon. 

Fans spotted the image on the PS5 pre-download screen for owners of the 
standard edition of the game, and it was later verified by IGN. 

On the art, Leon is sporting his regular haircut from past Resident Evil 
games, a grown-out beard, and what appears to be his leather jacket from 
Resident Evil 4 . 

In addition to this major leak, a GameStop listing (via VGC ) has also 
seemingly confirmed that Requiem will feature yet another Resident Evil 
character, Rose Winters, the daughter of Village protagonist Ethan Winters. 

 Resident Evil leaker AestheticGamer shared the details on social media with 
a screenshot showing the Deluxe Edition content, which includes a Mercenaries 
Mode, two planned story downloadable content (DLC) packs in "The Sanctuary" 
Expansion Pass, a "Morphic Visor" cosmetic, and the "Shadow Walker" costume 
pack that includes three outfits for Rose. 

It's unclear if either Leon or Rose will be playable alongside Grace in 
Requiem or if they'll just make cameos, but Leon acting as the secondary 
protagonist has been the long-running theory since the game's reveal and 
following additional leaks . 

If that is the case, The Game Awards, which is scheduled for December 11, 
would be the likely place for Capcom to make the announcement. 

 Resident Evil Requiem launches on February 27, 2026, for PlayStation 5 , 
Xbox Series X , Xbox Series S , Nintendo Switch 2 , and PC. Pre-orders are 
now open.
