The Presence of Leon S. Kennedy in Resident Evil Requiem Revealed Through PS Store Leak
A leak from the Portugal PS Store reveals the presence of Leon S. Kennedy in Resident Evil Requiem. The “DSO Special Agent” costume is mentioned in the Deluxe edition, strengthening rumors of his appearance even though Capcom has not given an official confirmation.
Shocking news comes alongside the start of the pre-order period for Resident Evil Requiem. Although Capcom has not officially announced it, indications of Leon S. Kennedy’s presence in the title seem to be “uncovered” after an entry on the Portugal PlayStation Store showed details hinting at the involvement of the iconic character.

The leak was first revealed by leaker DuskGolem through a tweet highlighting the Deluxe edition description on the PS Store page. That description lists a costume named “DSO Special Agent” specifically mentioned for Leon — a strong clue that Leon is very likely to appear in the game. Additionally, it mentions a total of five bonus costumes; two costumes specifically named are Grace’s Dimitrescu Outfit (a Lady Dimitrescu-themed costume for the character Grace) and Leon’s DSO Agent Outfit.

The Deluxe edition listed on the PS Store is also reported to include several other bonuses, including:
- Two visual filters (including a filter named “Apocalypse”)
- Four weapon skins
- Two charms
- Raccoon City Classic Audio Pack
- A set of files Letters from 1998
Although the information on this PS Store page strengthens the suspicion that Leon could be one of the playable characters in Resident Evil Requiem, Capcom has yet to release an official confirmation regarding this. This means that, although this leak provides concrete clues, Leon’s presence status remains speculative until there is an announcement from the developer or publisher.
For series fans, this leak clearly sparks anticipation and discussion — especially for those hoping for the reunion of iconic franchise characters to appear again. We await Capcom’s next move: whether they will officially confirm it, or if the information on the PS Store is indeed a listing error that will later be corrected.
