Capcom releases photo mode patch for Resident Evil Requiem

Capcom has released a patch for Resident Evil Requiem, fulfilling the photo mode promised in director Koshi Nakanishi's March 10 announcement. The update includes the long-requested feature, bug fixes, cutscene enhancements, and localisation corrections, now live across all platforms.

Following director Koshi Nakanishi's announcement earlier this month, Capcom deployed the photo mode update for Resident Evil Requiem on March 27. Accessible from the pause menu, it lets players capture moments like zombies or characters such as Leon and Grace.

The patch also improves character expressions in select cutscenes for better emotional impact, as noted by Capcom. It resolves bugs causing progress halts, crashes, and GPU-related visual glitches, fixes typographical errors across languages, and includes unspecified gameplay refinements.

This release aligns with the Resident Evil series' 30th anniversary celebrations. Executive producer Jun Takeuchi promised more experiences ahead, building on the ongoing support for Requiem detailed in prior updates.
