This confirmation comes after months of speculation and discussion within the Resident Evil community, where the possibility of Leon’s involvement captivated veteran players and newcomers alike. Leon, who has been one of the franchise’s most enduring and popular protagonists since his debut, had become the subject of numerous fan theories and hopeful predictions regarding Resident Evil Requiem.
Despite ongoing rumors, Capcom remained tight-lipped about the character’s role, fueling anticipation leading up to this unintentional reveal. In a recent interview, Resident Evil 4 producer Masato Kumazawa was questioned about Leon’s potential return in upcoming titles.
While Kumazawa refrained from confirming specifics at the time and commented that feedback regarding Leon would be taken into account, it’s now clear that Capcom was intentionally keeping details under wraps to avoid spoiling the surprise for players.

These products underscore Capcom’s ongoing partnership with Nintendo and highlight the franchise’s presence on platforms like the Nintendo Switch and eShop. While Capcom has yet to make a formal statement about Leon’s appearance following the PlayStation Store update, the newly revealed key art has already set off a wave of excitement across social media and fan forums.
As anticipation builds towards the official release of Resident Evil Requiem, this development cements the title’s status as one of the year’s most anticipated releases for both longtime fans of Capcom’s storied franchise and those following new content on Nintendo hardware.
