Resident Evil Requiem release times for all regions

The wait is almost over – Resident Evil Requiem is nearly here, and Capcom has set specific unlock times depending on where you are in the world. Worth checking the schedule ahead of time so you don't miss the start.

The official release date is February 27, though players on the US West Coast can jump in as early as the 26th. On consoles, the game unlocks at midnight local time everywhere.

For the Steam version, here's the breakdown:

• US West Coast: 9:00 AM PT (February 26)

• US East Coast: 12:00 AM ET (February 27)

• UK: 5:00 AM GMT

• Europe: 6:00 AM CET

• Moscow: 8:00 AM MSK

• Australia: 4:00 PM AEST

• New Zealand: 6:00 PM NZDT

In Resident Evil Requiem, players control two characters – Leon Kennedy and FBI agent Grace, who gets pulled into a series of mysterious events around Raccoon City.

Each character plays very differently. Grace relies on stealth and avoidance, steering clear of the undead wherever possible, while Leon takes a far more direct and brutal approach to dealing with zombies.

If you've already purchased the game on Steam, you can preload it now and be ready to play the moment it unlocks.
