Prominent leaker Dusk Golem denies ‘Chris’ and ‘Ada will appear in Resident Evil Requiem. Get the facts on the confirmed roster here.<\/b>
\nWith the February 27 launch of Resident Evil Requiem approaching, rumours are circulating wildly. Fans hope for the return of franchise veterans Ada Wong and Chris Redfield. However, a prominent source has aggressively shut these hopes down.
Dusk Golem, a renowned Resident Evil leaker, addressed the speculation directly. He labelled the reports of Ada and Chris appearing in the new game as a \u201cfake leak\u201d. Furthermore, he clarified that he never accredited these rumours to himself.
According to Dusk Golem, neither character will appear \u201cin any meaningful way\u201d. He also reminded fans of a crucial fact. The game\u2019s director previously stated in an official capacity that Chris Redfield would not be in Requiem. While an off-handed reference or file mention remains possible, players should not expect a physical appearance. Dusk Golem also noted that \u201cmurmurs\u201d suggest an older character might appear in future DLC, but it likely won\u2019t be Chris or Ada.
I\u2019m gonna\u2019 snip this in the bud since people love applying fake rumors to me, I never said this, it\u2019s a misc fake leak floating around. I don\u2019t believe Chris or Ada are in Resident Evil Requiem at all either from what I\u2019ve heard, at least in any meaningful way. https:\/\/t.co\/0AYTrjuioM

Despite the absence of Chris and Ada, the game features significant star power. Resident Evil Requiem officially confirms the return of Leon S. Kennedy. He will co-star with a new protagonist, Grace Ashcroft. Capcom reportedly delayed Leon\u2019s reveal to build anticipation and give Grace the spotlight.
Additionally, the Umbrella Corporation makes a confirmed return. This suggests high stakes for the duo beyond just Raccoon City nostalgia.
Resident Evil Requiem launches on February 27. It will be available on Nintendo Switch 2, PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.<\/p>\n
