00:15I'm ready to go!

00:30Welcome, and thank you for joining.

00:34I'm your host, Maggie Robertson.

00:37Today, we're giving you a briefing on all things Resident Evil,

00:42including a look back on its terrifying legacy,

00:46so you can be prepared to take on the series' latest installment,

00:50Resident Evil Requiem,

00:54releasing February 27th, 2026.

00:58I'm also thrilled to announce that pre-orders for Resident Evil Requiem begin today.

01:04Are you ready for the horrors ahead?

01:07To prepare you for Resident Evil Requiem, we've created a special recap.

01:12A look back at how we got here, the legendary characters,

01:16the unforgettable terrors, and the chilling details

01:19that may be important to remember as you continue to venture into the nightmare that awaits.

01:25So let's begin.

01:28With the events leading up to the 1998 Raccoon City incident.

01:36Many years prior, a group of researchers discovered the progenitor virus in Africa.

01:42Among these researchers was Oswell E. Spencer, a man of immense wealth and influence.

01:49Together, they founded the Umbrella Corporation, which on the surface seemed like an ordinary pharmaceutical company.

01:59But Umbrella's true purpose, driven by Spencer's ambition to reshape humanity,

02:03was to advance virus research and bioweapons development.

02:07Many years later, one of Spencer's collaborators, James Marcus, would successfully develop the T-virus.

02:14However, in 1998, the virus leaked from a research facility in Raccoon City, located in the American Midwest.

02:23The virus spread throughout the city, triggering an unprecedented pandemic and mutating its residents into flesh-eating zombies.

02:35Only the bravest souls were fearless enough to fight the infected and the monster's bioweapons born from the T-virus.

02:43Rookie cop, Leon S. Kennedy, college student Claire Redfield,

02:51STARS agent Jill Valentine, and a handful of others were able to prevail and eventually flee the city.

03:00Fearing further spread, the U.S. government launched a sterilization operation destroying Raccoon City.

03:08The Umbrella Corporation eventually went bankrupt due to the mounting evidence brought to light.

03:18However, its legacy lives on.

03:21And as for the survivors, their story was just beginning.

03:26Some, like Raccoon City journalist Alyssa Ashcroft, sought to expose Umbrella's darkest secrets.

03:34Some hunted the bioterrorists who weaponized Umbrella's research.

03:39Others set out to unveil the real truth behind the government's sterilization operation.

03:47The aftershocks of the Raccoon City incident would be felt for decades to come,

03:52and coincide with other increasingly frequent bioweapon-related outbreaks.

03:57Caught up in one such bioweapon-related tragedy was an ordinary man by the name of Ethan Winters.

04:07Ethan was searching for his missing wife, Mia.

04:12Following an anonymous email, he finds himself in the bowels of the bayou at the Baker Estate,

04:18where he's greeted by a deranged family infected by a horrifying ailment.

04:27Ethan fought to escape their madness and rescue his wife.

04:31Three years later, Ethan would face a new nightmare.

04:35This time, his baby daughter Rose is taken away by Chris Redfield,

04:40the legendary hero who survived countless bioterror incidents.

04:46Ethan's quest to rescue his daughter led him to a mysterious, treacherous village ruled by Mother Miranda and the Four Lords.

04:57Like the Baker family, the village residents were turned into nightmarish creatures.

05:03And those four powerful lords?

05:06Well, one of them was more powerful and stunning than the others.

05:12What a goddess.

05:14Oh, my apologies.

05:17Now, where was I?

05:20Mother Miranda, who shares a deep connection with Umbrella founder Oswell E. Spencer,

05:25played a key role behind the village incident.

05:29Separately, it was revealed that an insidious force known simply as The Connections was operating from the shadows,

05:38and also played a key role in the incident.

05:41To this day, little is known about The Connections.

05:46Ethan Winter's terrifying two-part tale was as chilling as it was exhilarating.

05:52An immersive horror experience witnessed from Resident Evil's first-ever first-person perspective.

06:00Both titles will be available in the content-rich Gold Edition for Nintendo Switch 2 on February 27, 2026.

06:09They'll feature post-story scenarios and extra game modes.

06:13Resident Evil Village will also include a third-person gameplay option.

06:18And if February 27 sounds familiar, it's because it is.

06:24These two terrifying titles are releasing the same day as Resident Evil Requiem.

06:30The series' newest, most chilling installment, where you'll play FBI analyst Grace Ashcroft as she confronts her haunted past

06:40and uncovers the truth behind the Raccoon City incident.

06:44Prepare yourself for a new chapter of Resident Evil and a story that pushes the series forward,

06:52using gameplay that has evolved in terrifying new ways.

06:57Resident Evil Requiem will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, Steam, Nintendo Switch 2,

07:04and, for the first time in series history, the Epic Game Store.

07:10You'll be able to choose between two editions, Standard and Deluxe.

07:16The Deluxe Edition includes the same base game as the Standard Edition,

07:20plus an exclusive pack of costumes and weapon skins.

07:24And for pre-orders, players will also get the exclusive Grace's Costume Apocalypse.

07:32Let us now turn our attention to the exquisite offerings that accompany Resident Evil Requiem.
