Hamilton releases Resident Evil Requiem-inspired watches

Hamilton Watch has launched two limited-edition timepieces in collaboration with Capcom's Resident Evil Requiem. The watches draw inspiration from the game's main characters, Grace Ashcroft and Leon S. Kennedy. They are now available for purchase online.

Hamilton Watch, a Swiss brand known for its horology, has partnered with Capcom to create limited-edition watches tied to the upcoming Resident Evil Requiem game. According to reports, the collection features two models designed to evoke the survival horror theme of the franchise, reimagined as 'survival horology'.

One watch channels Grace Ashcroft, a key character in the game, while the other honors Leon S. Kennedy, a returning protagonist from the Resident Evil series. These pieces aim to allow fans to 'channel' the characters in real life, blending gaming aesthetics with functional watchmaking.

The collaboration was announced around February 27, 2026, with both sources confirming the watches' availability for immediate purchase. Hamilton's design incorporates elements inspired by the game's narrative, though specific technical details like movements or materials are not detailed in the provided information.

This release highlights the growing trend of video game merchandise crossing into luxury goods, appealing to collectors of both watches and gaming memorabilia. No pricing or exact availability timelines beyond 'now' were specified.
