Beware, Resident Evil fans. Requiem has leaked, and spoilers are around every corner

Resident Evil Requiem comes out on Feb. 27, or in just over a week as of this article. Some fans, though, are so excited that they’ve found ways to play the game earlier. And instead of keeping hush-hush about it, they’re sharing it with the world by streaming, recording, and uploading clips from the game.

To put it bluntly: spoilers are everywhere. Just logging into X and Reddit the other day, I found a person running a full-blown stream of RE9, allegedly switching accounts every day to avoid Sony’s righteous banhammer. It unfortunately showed me some scenes I would have liked to experience for myself in the comfort of my own PC and horror-primed OLED screen. But alas, I got spoiled, which doesn’t mean you should be, too.

My advice to you would be to completely ignore any and all Resident Evil-related channels. Whether that’s on X or Reddit (YouTube should be safe because you can actually see the thumbnails, but even the,n Shorts is booby-trapped), you’d do well to mute these communities for at least the next 10 days or so. Avoiding any leak-oriented part of the internet is highly advised, as I came across the stream above exactly in one such community.

Leaks have been a plague on the video game industry for a while now, with some people just unwilling to wait for a bit longer before they engage with a title. I understand the hype, and I’m very excited to play the game, but for the love of God, let’s keep it civil for one more week. There’s no need to know all of these things upfront or before they’re ready for launch.

Stay civil, stay vigilant, and avoid spoilers (and spoiling) as much as you can.

Destiny 2’s next large-scale update, Shadow and Order, has been delayed out of its launch in just a couple of weeks. But players already pretty much knew that.

Shadow and Order was scheduled to launch on March 3, two days before Bungie’s new game Marathon, and the writing has been on the wall for a while: radio silence about the update for a long time, until today.

Bungie posted today that Shadow and Order is now launching on June 9, which is just over three months from its initial launch point, and “undergoing large revisions” in the process. Needless to say, even though they knew it was coming, Destiny 2 players are none too pleased on the subject.

“We will provide exact details closer to release covering previously announced Weapon Tier Upgrading, but also additions like expanding Tiered Gear to all Raid and Dungeon activities, Pantheon 2.0, Tier 5 stats for Exotic Armors, and more,” Bungie said.

Shadow and Order is now being “changed and expanded to include sizable quality-of-life updates and as a result, will also be renamed” in light of the change, which feels directly Marathon-related, whether intended or not.

“Through June, we will continue to have routine bug fixes and stability improvements, continued portal modifiers, Guardian Games (March), and the return of a more frequent Iron Banner cadence (April),” Bungie said, confirming that the roadmap of content will be a bit more scant than originally scheduled. “In terms of communications, we will be focusing on providing you with updates about our live game content, community activations, and general upkeep through the TWID and our Destiny social channels.”

Bungie and Sony both need Marathon to be a success, and the chances of Destiny 2 players trying it out, buying it, and spending money on it is likely a lot higher if they don’t have Shadow and Order to distract them from the new extraction shooter.

Before its delay, Shadow and Order was set to include a new rewards pass, exotic weapon and ornament, new legendary weapons and armor ornaments, new cosmetics, “and more.”
