Resident Evil Requiem

Resident Evil Requiem is a Capcom title discounted in the company's summer sale, and its ray-traced visuals are cited in tests of NVIDIA's DLSS 4.5 Ray Reconstruction update.

Synthesized from 2 Yomimono stories · updated 2h ago

Resident Evil Requiem appears in two separate Yomimono stories, once as a sale item and once as a test subject for a graphics technology update. Neither story establishes much about the game itself; both treat it as one title among many in a broader Capcom or NVIDIA context.

The Capcom summer sale, announced on July 10, 2026, placed Resident Evil Requiem at 20% off on PlayStation Store and Steam. That is the only concrete detail the sale story gives about the game. The sale's other titles, like Monster Hunter Wilds and Monster Hunter Rise + Sunbreak, get specific discount percentages, but Requiem is listed without further context.

The second story, from August 27, 2026, tests NVIDIA's DLSS 4.5 Ray Reconstruction update using Capcom titles. Game Spark, testing with a GeForce RTX 5090, verified improvements in Biohazard Requiem, including clearer raindrop outlines and more stable reflections on glass surfaces. The story refers to the game as Biohazard Requiem, the Japanese title for Resident Evil Requiem, and notes that the DLSS update works on GeForce RTX 20 through 50 series GPUs, with near-negligible performance impact on the 40/50 series.

NVIDIA's DLSS 4.5 Ray Reconstruction Refines Light and Shadows

NVIDIA is updating its Ray Reconstruction technology with a second-generation Transformer model as part of DLSS 4.5, scheduled to roll out on GeForce RTX GPUs from the 20 series through the 50 series in August 2026. The new model, introduced alongside the gamescom 2026 announcements, is trained on a larger dataset and uses 35% more computational power while processing 20% more parameters. It gives developers finer control over temporal accumulation, which determines how much information from past frames is kept. Automaton's hands-on testing with a GeForce RTX 5070 Ti found that afterimages from path-traced light sources, like the lasers in Capcom's PRAGMATA, now disappear more quickly and naturally. Game Spark, using a GeForce RTX 5090, verified similar results in PRAGMATA and Biohazard Requiem, noting clearer raindrop outlines and more stable reflections on glass surfaces. NVIDIA materials state the performance impact is nearly negligible on RTX 40/50 series, though slight differences may occur on 20/30 series due to architectural constraints. The update also works with RTX Remix and arrives in the NVIDIA App via DLSS Override.
