It looks like the only way to beat the Kiwis when it comes to getting access to new releases early is ordering the game offline via local retailers and hoping you get the game early.
Well! That is what has been happening with many past releases, and the same is evident for Capcom’s Resident Evil Requiem.
On Tuesday, Feb 17, Resident Evil Requiem Deluxe Edition physical edition images started appearing on the internet, with veteran leaker and insider, Dusk Golem, confirming that some players have received their copies from stores selling the game early.


Not only that, there are other people too, who have confirmed that the game’s physical edition is already in the hands of some players, with a Russian player in particular, who has already completed the game.
Now, since Resident Evil Requiem is one of the, if not the most, hyped story-focused releases this year, it becomes somewhat mandatory to avoid spoilers, until and unless you are someone who likes getting spoilers before playing the game yourself.
Be wary of platforms like YouTube, X, Facebook and such, especially YouTube and X, as there’s no doubt that some of the players with the game’s access may try to stream the game or upload content related to it ahead of the official release or review/content embargo.
