Plan your next Resident Evil Requiem session
This companion guide helps you get the most out of Resident Evil Requiem by breaking down its core systems, from narrative depth to technical options. Work through these exercises to refine your approach and compare playstyles.
01 / THE GUIDE
Narrative Comparison
Write a brief journal entry from Grace's perspective after a key investigation, then contrast it with how Leon might react to the same event. Notice how their backgrounds shape their interpretations.
- Pay attention to each character's dialogue for clues about the outbreak's origin.
- Use Grace's analytical moments to anticipate puzzle solutions.
02 / THE GUIDE
Resource Management Drill
Track ammunition usage across the first two hours of gameplay. Identify patterns where you run low and adjust your scavenging routine accordingly.
- Conserve ammunition early to avoid being under-armed later.
- Explore every room for hidden items that can aid puzzle solving.
03 / THE GUIDE
Perspective Test
Play a combat encounter twice—once in first-person, once in third-person. Record which view yields higher accuracy and why, then settle on your preferred default.
- Switch to first-person for precise aiming in tight corridors.
- Use third-person to keep track of surrounding threats.

Playstyle Planning
Before a major section, sketch a plan for how you will handle combat, puzzles, and item use. Afterward, compare what happened to your plan and note where resource management made the difference.
- Steam Cloud is listed among the features, so you can rely on it for cloud saving support.
- Activate HDR for richer visual contrast in dark environments.

Accessibility Review
Captions are listed as available, so enable them during a dialogue-heavy segment and evaluate whether they help you follow the story comfortably.
- The store page lists full controller support, so a gamepad is a viable way to play.
- Check the in-game options to see which controller-related settings are offered.
