Capcom Launches Resident Evil Requiem PS5 Physical Pre‑Order at R$349

Resident Evil Requiem is now available for physical pre‑order on PlayStation 5 in Brazil at R$ 349 (≈ US $68). The disc edition ships nationwide and is set to arrive with the global launch on 27 February 2026, offering gamers a tangible copy of the latest survival‑horror title.

Pre‑Order Details for Brazil

The physical edition launched across major retail outlets and select online stores, featuring two versions:

  • Standard Edition – includes the base game on disc.
  • Collector’s Edition – adds exclusive artwork, a steel‑book case, and an in‑game “Requiem” weapon skin.

Both editions are priced at R$ 349, aligning with recent premium PS5 releases and providing a competitive option for collectors.

Global Launch and Platform Availability

Resident Evil Requiem releases simultaneously on four platforms:

  • PlayStation 5
  • Xbox Series X|S
  • PC (Steam and Epic Games Store)
  • Nintendo Switch 2 (upcoming)

The 27 February 2026 launch follows an extensive marketing campaign that showcased new technologies such as real‑time path tracing and native DLSS 4 support, ensuring smooth 4K performance on next‑gen hardware.

Technical Highlights on PS5

  • 60 fps native 4K – a significant boost over previous entries.
  • Real‑time path tracing – realistic lighting without sacrificing frame rate.
  • DLSS 4 – AI‑enhanced upscaling for sharper visuals.
  • Full Russian localisation – voice acting and subtitles included.

Impact on the Brazilian Gaming Market

Physical game sales remain strong in Brazil due to limited broadband access and a cultural preference for collectible items. By offering a competitively priced disc version, Capcom targets both mainstream gamers and collectors who value ownership of tangible media.

The R$ 349 price sits slightly above the average new PS5 title (R$ 250‑R$ 300), but the inclusion of cutting‑edge graphics and exclusive collector items justifies the premium for early adopters.

Looking Ahead

Resident Evil Requiem’s technical ambitions may set a new benchmark for horror games on the PS5, prompting competitors to explore similar rendering pipelines. Brazilian players now have a clear path to secure a physical copy, reinforcing the market’s importance in Capcom’s global strategy.

Gamers should mark their calendars for 27 February 2026, when the next chapter of survival horror arrives with advanced graphics, multilingual support, and a price point designed to attract both casual and dedicated fans.
