Strange Clue for Leon in Resident Evil Requiem
There’s been a long-discussed topic in the Resident Evil world: Will Leon S. Kennedy be in this game or not? Despite Capcom repeatedly stating “Leon isn’t,” the gaming community remains unconvinced. Reliable leakers, in particular, claim that Leon will play a major role in the story and that some scenes are actually from his perspective. Now, a rather intriguing clue has emerged, further stirring up trouble.
Is There a Leon Surprise in Resident Evil Requiem?
Rumors about Resident Evil Requiem have been circulating unabated for months. Known leaks suggest that Leon will appear alongside Grace Ashcroft and that the secret gameplay footage belongs to him. Furthermore, the fact that his inventory design resembles Leon’s iconic briefcase further bolsters the possibility of an additional playable character. In fact, a recent official regional PlayStation post mentioned a Leon-exclusive costume, further fueling suspicions.
Despite all this, Capcom is still promoting a “no surprises” message. However, a Peruvian-based game store has taken things to a whole new level. The store has offered a free pair of Leon S. Kennedy-themed underwear with Requiem pre-orders.
While this detail may seem like an interesting marketing ploy at first glance, it has become one of the most compelling pieces of evidence that the character is actually in the game. The store also added that the image is a preliminary design and that the final version will be released soon. This suggests that an official reveal may not be far off.
According to recent leaks, Capcom may be planning to reveal Leon’s appearance in Requiem at a major event like The Game Awards. The image in question is believed to have been generated by AI, and the final design is claimed to feature a darker, more weathered portrait of Leon. If such a scenario plays out, this “worst-kept secret” will finally be made official.
The situation is quite clear for fans: As evidence mounts, so does anticipation. Players have been waiting for Leon’s return for years, and this time the clues are stronger than ever. Regardless of the outcome, the Resident Evil community is eagerly awaiting Capcom’s announcement.
