On May 8, 2026, Capcom released Leon Must Die Forever, a free challenge for Resident Evil Requiem. If you finished the story and want more, this is the mode to try. The details below come from Game Informer's report on the release.
Key takeaways
- It is free and was released on May 8, 2026.
- It unlocks after you beat the campaign.
- It is a timed run through earlier areas with stronger enemies.
- There are five ranks, random area order and "enhancer" abilities.
What it is
Leon Must Die Forever sends you through areas you already know from the campaign, but against the clock and against tougher enemies. The order of the areas is random, so each run is different. As you go you pick up "enhancer" abilities that change how you play, and at the end you get one of five ranks.
How to unlock it
- Finish the Requiem campaign.
- Look for the new mode in the main menu.
- Choose a run and start the clock.
Tips for your first runs
- Do not rush the first areas. A lost life costs more time than a careful minute.
- Use your best weapons. Upgrades from the campaign help, but enemies are tougher.
- Choose abilities that fit your style. If you like fast action, pick something that rewards speed.
- Aim for a better rank each time. Five ranks give you a clear goal.
Who it is for
This mode is for players who already beat the story. If you are still playing the campaign, start with our beginner guide instead. And remember that Requiem is rated ESRB M and PEGI 18.
