Resident Evil Requiem ‘Leon Must Die Forever’ Update Available Now

Capcom has released a new free update for Resident Evil Requiem. The update adds a new minigame mode titled “Leon Must Die Forever.” In this mode, you will “fight your way through areas you’ve visited previously throughout the game and defeat the final boss, all with stronger enemy variants, five increasingly difficulty ranks, and a race against the clock.” The extra game mode is unlocked after completing the main story. A trailer for the mode has also been released. Resident Evil Requiem is available now for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Switch 2, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.

The full details:

“Leon Must Die Forever” is an extra game mode that is unlocked after players complete the main story and comes packed with the nonstop combat action that players know and love from legendary agent Leon S. Kennedy. Fight your way through areas you’ve visited previously throughout the game and defeat the final boss, all with stronger enemy variants, five increasingly difficulty ranks, and a race against the clock! Fill your enhancement gauge by defeating enemies in order to unlock Leon’s “enhancer abilities” exclusive to this game mode.

The order and progression of each area, plus options for Leon’s “enhancer abilities,” differ among each run, adding to increased replayability.

Alongside the release of “Leon Must Die Forever” comes several additional announcements:

Various bug fixes across platforms have been addressed
Added PC support for the DualSense wireless controller’s adaptive triggers, haptic feedback, and motion sensor features
All-new “Leon Must Die Forever” merch including t-shirts, long-sleeve shirts, sweatshirt, and hoodies, is available now on Amazon!
