A brief look at Resident Evil Requiem's main theme

Starting February 27, PS5, Xbox Series, Switch 2, and PC players will be able to immerse themselves in the horror of Resident Evil Requiem. The main characters for this epic adventure will be Grace Ashcroft and the famous Leon Kennedy.

Today, Capcom revealed a first excerpt from the main theme specially composed for the game. It's called Through the Darkness. Composer Nao Sato discussed the creation of this piece in a promotional video for the 30th anniversary of the Resident Evil franchise.

"The theme song 'Through the Darkness' was created through close discussions with the team. While the in-game music is noisy, we were conscious of making this song captivating. We went through a lot of trial and error while creating it, and I think it's a theme song that allows you to savor the worldview both while playing the game and after playing the game."
