Capcom has released a demo version of Resident Evil Requiem for multiple gaming platforms, giving players early access to part of the game’s opening stages. The company announced that the demo is now available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Series S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC through Steam and the Epic Games Store. The launch comes as Resident Evil Requiem continues to see strong sales, becoming the fastest-selling game in the history of the Resident Evil franchise since its release earlier this year.

According to Capcom, the demo allows players to experience a section from the game’s early stages. However, save data from the demo cannot be transferred to the full version of the game.


“The demo version allows you to play part of the game’s early stages,” the company said. “Please note that save data from the demo version cannot be transferred to the full version of the game.”


Resident Evil Requiem has become a major success for Capcom since launching in February. The game reportedly sold 5 million copies in less than a week and later crossed 7 million sales within two months.


Gaming industry observers noted that the previous fastest-selling title in the series was Resident Evil 4, which took more than a year to reach the same milestone. Capcom’s best-selling Resident Evil title remains the 2019 remake of Resident Evil 2, followed by Resident Evil 7: Biohazard and Resident Evil Village.


The company recently celebrated the latest sales milestone with an event attended by Geoff Keighley, producer of The Game Awards.
