On Tuesday, game director Koshi Nakanishi revealed that a story expansion for the latest Resident Evil is now in development, though its contents remain a mystery.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- No AdsNinja v10 Client! --><!-- No AdsNinja v10 Client! --><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are planning to make extra story content,&#8221; Nakanishi said in a video posted to the official Resident Evil X account. &#8220;In this story, we will delve deeper into the world of <em>Requiem<\/em>. We\u2019re hard at work on it now. It will take some time, so we ask for your patience and hope that you\u2019ll look forward to it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Story-based expansions for modern Resident Evil games are expected at this point. <em>Resident Evil 7 biohazard <\/em>featured three downloadable add-ons: <em>Banned Footage<\/em>, <em>Not A Hero<\/em>, and <em>End of Zoe<\/em>. <em>Resident Evil Village<\/em> featured an extended story with <em>Shadows of Rose<\/em>, and the <em>Resident Evil 4<\/em> remake expanded with <em>Separate Ways<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Nakanishi said that Capcom is also planning to release further updates for the base version of <em>Resident Evil Requiem<\/em>, including a photo mode and &#8220;another surprise coming around May.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We\u2019re planning to add a minigame,&#8221; Nakanishi said, though he did not reveal what that would entail. Two recent games in the franchise, <em>Resident Evil Village<\/em> and <em>Resident Evil 4<\/em>&#8216;s remake, received the fan-favorite mode The Mercenaries shortly after each game&#8217;s launch, so a similar mode for <em>Requiem<\/em> seems possible.<\/p>\n<p>However, prior to Nakanishi&#8217;s reveal of new story-based DLC for <em>Resident Evil Requiem<\/em>, he showed off a few slides that were either sly jokes or subtle hints about what kind of minigame players might see. Nakanishi showed one slide that featured the title &#8220;Forbidden Requiem,&#8221; which implied that Leon S. Kennedy would appear on the dating show <em>The Bachelor<\/em> \u2014 no doubt a nod to Leon&#8217;s mysterious relationship status. Other slides showed a card game that looked <em>Inscryption<\/em> inspired, a Resident Evil-themed <em>Candy Crush<\/em>-style puzzle game, and cat heads for Leon and Grace.<\/p>\n<p>To be honest, none of these sound like bad ideas!<\/p>\n<div class=\"body-img landscape \">\n<div class=\"responsive-img  image-expandable  img-article-item\" style=\"padding-bottom:56.25%\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static0.polygonimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/re-requiem-gags.jpg\" data-modal-id=\"single-image-modal\" data-modal-container-id=\"single-image-modal-container\" data-img-caption=\"&quot;Image: Capcom&quot;\">\n<figure><picture><source media=\"(max-width: 480px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.polygonimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/re-requiem-gags.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=500&amp;dpr=2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.polygonimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/re-requiem-gags.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=500&amp;dpr=2\"\/><source media=\"(max-width: 767px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.polygonimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/re-requiem-gags.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=800&amp;dpr=2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.polygonimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/re-requiem-gags.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=800&amp;dpr=2\"\/><source media=\"(max-width: 1023px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.polygonimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/re-requiem-gags.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=825&amp;dpr=2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.polygonimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/re-requiem-gags.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=825&amp;dpr=2\"\/><img width=\"1650\" height=\"928\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Koshi Nakanishi, director of Resident Evil Requiem, shows a Leon S Kennedy dating game\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static0.polygonimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/re-requiem-gags.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=825&amp;dpr=2\" src=\"https:\/\/static0.polygonimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/re-requiem-gags.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=825&amp;dpr=2\" class=\"img-brightness-opt-out\"\/>\n        <\/picture><small class=\"body-img-caption\">Image: Capcom<\/small><\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> <em>Resident Evil Requiem<\/em> is available now on Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, and Xbox Series X.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/resident-evil-requiem-dlc-expansion-minigame-photo-mode\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article At Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Resident Evil Requiem&#8216;s a hit, so naturally, Capcom is working on downloadable content for it.
