Capcom’s newest chapter in the Resident Evil saga, Resident Evil Requiem, made its official debut earlier this week, bringing fresh details about its story and gameplay to fans eagerly awaiting the next scare. Yet, amid the excitement, one thing stood out—there was no collector’s edition announcement. For a series known for lavish special editions packed with memorabilia, the absence feels unusual.
While Capcom hasn’t explained why they’re passing on the typical collector’s edition this time, it’s a notable departure from past releases that often catered to the franchise’s dedicated fanbase with extras like statues, artbooks, and soundtracks. Perhaps this signals a shift in their approach or a focus on other marketing angles. Whatever the reason, it leaves collectors wanting more, especially considering how the Resident Evil brand has built its allure through those premium bundles.
For now, fans will have to settle for the core experience when Resident Evil Requiem launches, keeping an eye out for any surprises down the road.
