A new Resident Evil 9 Requiem leak claims Capcom has two DLCs planned.

Resident Evil 9 Requiem has been out for a while and has already become a fan-favorite among fans, especially with Capcom bringing the series back with new characters and some familiar names. The game has had plenty of discussion around its story, its darker tone, and how it connects to past Resident Evil titles.

As expected with any major Resident Evil release, the rumor mill was also very active. Some leaks before launch got several story details right, which has made fans pay closer attention to anything new coming from those same circles.

Now, there is some new information on the leaks front, and this one is about possible post-launch DLC.

Resident Evil 9 Requiem Leak Claims Two Story DLCs Are Coming

The latest claim comes from an X user who shared a post discussing information from a Chinese account. According to the post, this Chinese account had previously claimed that Resident Evil 9 Requiem would get extra content focused on Chris Redfield and Ada Wong before the game was even released.

The X user, @fatiimaabdou, said what makes the claim more interesting is that many of this account’s earlier leaks reportedly turned out to be true after players finished the game. That does not confirm the DLC, but it does explain why some fans are taking this one more seriously than a random online rumor.

According to the translated Chinese text shown in the post, the leak claims that Resident Evil 9 Requiem will receive two DLCs. One will reportedly focus on Alyssa and Leon, while the other will focus on Ada and Chris. The same post also claims that a new mini-game or extra mode will be added later.

The leak also includes several story-related claims. It says Leon and Grace are the main characters, Victor is the final boss, a familiar face returns, a little girl is actually a biological weapon, Alyssa is not the monster chasing Grace, Elpis can cure all viruses, Leon dies in one ending, and HUNK also returns.

Here is the machine-translated statement from the Chinese text:

“Main plot: Leon and Grace are the main characters. As you might have guessed, Victor is the final boss. A familiar face will return. A little girl is actually a biological weapon. Alyssa isn’t the monster chasing Grace as everyone thought. Elpis can cure all viruses. In one ending, Leon dies, and Hunk also returns.

DLC: There will be two DLCs for this game, one featuring Alyssa and Leon, and the other featuring Ada and Chris. A new mini-game or additional mode will also be added later.”

For now, this should be taken with a grain of salt. Capcom has not officially confirmed these two DLCs, and even accurate leakers can still get details wrong or share plans that later change. Still, the idea of Leon, Alyssa, Ada, and Chris being part of Resident Evil 9 Requiem’s post-launch content is more than enough to get fans talking.
