Unveiled Alleged Info about Resident Evil 9's Main Character Leon and Upcoming Remakes, Supposedly Leaked on the Web
In the world of Resident Evil, Leon Kennedy is set to take centre stage once more in the upcoming game, Resident Evil 9 Requiem. While Capcom developers have considered his style not suitable for the main protagonist, it seems that Leon will still feature prominently in the game, potentially marking his send-off from the mainline series[1].
The game, scheduled for release on February 27, 2026, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, will see Leon alongside a new protagonist, Grace Ashcroft, an FBI tech genius and the daughter of Alyssa Ashcroft from Resident Evil Outbreak[4]. The story is set in 2026, returning to a post-Umbrella Raccoon City devastated by past viral outbreaks, with Leon approximately 49 years old[3][5].
Grace investigates mysterious deaths at the Wrenwood Hotel, a place tied to her past, while Leon joins her in uncovering deeper threats[4]. The game will allow players to switch between first-person and third-person perspectives, emphasizing a heavier narrative focus than previous entries[4].
While the exact details of Leon’s fate remain uncertain, the game is framed as his final mainline appearance[1][2][3]. It is speculated that Leon might retire after the events of Resident Evil 9[2]. However, it is important to note that none of this information has been officially confirmed by Capcom.
In addition to the Resident Evil news, there have been recent reports about Battlefield 6, with the developer revealing that Classes will result in a major change for players[6]. For those interested in Resident Evil updates, Dusk Golem, a user known for posting about the Resident Evil series, has also claimed that Resident Evil 0 and Code Veronica are being remade[7].
