Capcom has issued a public appeal asking fans and creators not to post or share pre-release leaks and spoilers for Resident Evil Requiem as the game's Switch 2 launch approaches. The publisher reminds the community that its legal department is actively working to remove unauthorised content and will continue to pursue takedowns. The move is aimed at protecting the launch experience for players worldwide.

  • Capcom's message targets early leaks and spoiler content that could spread across social feeds and forums before release, urging restraint from those who might have access to pre-release material.
  • The company confirmed its legal team will continue issuing takedown notices to remove unauthorised posts, signalling ongoing enforcement rather than a one-off warning.
  • Capcom framed the notice as an appeal to the Resident Evil community, asking both fans and creators to respect embargoes and avoid sharing spoilers that could ruin the surprise for others.
  • The warning comes as Requiem readies for release on Nintendo's Switch 2, with the title already noted as one of the more anticipated games of 2026 and therefore a likely target for early leaks.
  • By asking for cooperation and continuing takedown activity, Capcom aims to protect the planned reveal timeline and ensure players encounter the story and surprises as intended on launch day.
