When will this Spencer Mansion DLC release?

No official date has been confirmed by Capcom. According to other leaks, the DLC would be expected around late 2027, but this remains pure speculation.

Who might players control in this DLC?

Dusk Golem hasn't revealed the exact character, but fans point to Jill Valentine as the most plausible candidate due to her direct connection to the Spencer Mansion, or Ada Wong for her historical association with Leon.

How reliable is Dusk Golem's leak?

Dusk Golem has a track record of predictions confirmed by Capcom regarding the Resident Evil franchise, which gives him a certain credibility. However, no official announcement from the publisher corroborates this leak for now.

Why did Capcom stay silent at Gamescom 2026?

Despite its notable presence at the event, Capcom deliberately snubbed Resident Evil Requiem, leaving out any communication about the DLC. This silence fuels speculation without officially clarifying anything.

RE Requiem: the DLC would take us to the Spencer mansion, a leak to be taken with caution?

Dusk Golem claims it: the first major DLC of Resident Evil Requiem would plunge players back into the ruins of the Spencer mansion, the birthplace of the saga on PS1. A return to the roots that would surely thrill the fanbase, but which remains for now a pure rumor.

According to the leaker, this area would have already been designed for the base game before being reworked to form a full-fledged expansion. The DLC would also allow players to play as a character other than Grace or Leon, though Dusk Golem did not confirm which one. Fans are putting forward two names: Ada Wong, regularly associated with Leon's story arcs, or Jill Valentine, whose connection to the Spencer mansion would give this return its full meaning.

A source to take with a grain of salt?

Dusk Golem has built a solid reputation on the Resident Evil license, with several past predictions confirmed by Capcom. This earns him close attention from the community every time new information comes out. But a good track record isn't the same as confirmation: the publisher has made no official announcement about this DLC, neither about its content nor even its release date, which has only been mentioned around late 2027 by other leaks.

Capcom also snubbed Resident Evil Requiem during its presence at Gamescom 2026, which fuels speculation without confirming anything. As long as the studio doesn't communicate officially, this leak remains a credible lead, backed by a reputable source, but nothing more.
