<\/section>\n

A GameStop listing for Resident Evil Requiem<\/a> has stated that the game’s Deluxe Edition will include costumes for a shock second character \u2014 and no, it’s not who you might think. <\/p>\n

Over the past year, the internet has been waiting for Capcom to confirm that Resident Evil hero Leon S. Kennedy is in Resident Evil Requiem as a second playable character. There have been rumors, there have been AI image leaks, and there have been increasingly cryptic teases from Capcom itself. <\/p>\n

And it’s against this backdrop that fans have been left stunned, as GameStop’s Resident Evil Requiem Deluxe Edition listing has gone live and mentioned exclusive content for… Rosemary Winters.<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

Rosmary Winters?! The daughter of Resident Evil 7 and Village protagonist Ethan Winters, Rosemary initially appears in the latter game as a baby, though has a starring role in that game’s Shadows of Rose expansion, set in the future when she is a teenager. <\/p>\n

Her inclusion here, if GameStop’s listing<\/a> is indeed to be believed, is a huge curveball for Resident Evil fans \u2014 as Requiem has so far been pitched as an entry that ties the series back to its roots in Raccoon City. Indeed, Capcom has even said that it wanted the game to tie up older plot threads (such has what happened to Umbrella) rather than focus on characters from more recent games. But perhaps it sees Rosemary as an opportunity to close off those, too. <\/p>\n

\n

GameSpot seems to have accidentally just posted more Deluxe Edition content for Resident Evil Requiem, which includes some spoilers, including Mercenaries Mode, Grace having a “FBI Visor” mechanic, & two planned story DLC for RE9. pic.twitter.com\/7HoZbqTUzp<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2014 AestheticGamer aka Dusk Golem (@AestheticGamer1) December 7, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

GameStop’s listing states the Deluxe Edition includes a “‘Morphic Visor’ cosmetic filter for Rose’s visor” and the “Shadow Walker’ costume pack: 3 exclusive outfits for Rosemary Winters.” There’s also mention of two additional story scenarious and a “major” Mercenaries mode update, included in an expansion pass. None of this content is officially announced. <\/p>\n

The listing has come as such a surprise to fans that there is some skepticism over its legitimacy \u2014 even as it sits on the website of GameStop, one of the world’s biggest video game retailers. Fan speculation has run the gamut here \u2014 that the retailer has been hacked, or the entry updated by a rogue employee just to watch fans react as they are now doing. Or, alternatively, it’s real \u2014 and an accident, or even yet another canny piece of marketing from the chain.<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

And as for Leon? Well, there’s certainly no sign in GameStop’s listing. What does this mean for his inclusion? Well, if GameStop’s listing is accurate, simply that he’s not a part of the Deluxe Edition content.<\/p>\n

Whatever’s going on, all eyes will be on Resident Evil Requiem’s appearance at The Game Awards later this week, where Capcom is expected to tease fans with more on the game, now just a few months from launch. Will we see Leon? Will we see Rose? IGN will be reporting live \u2014 and in the meantime, we’ve contacted GameStop for comment.<\/p>\n
