Capcom offered a substantial – but still all too brief – look at Resident Evil Requiem behind closed doors at Summer Game Fest, and while the meat of that hands-off gameplay demo was played in first-person, there was one more big surprise at the end. The devs revealed an in-game toggle allowing you to play Requiem from a third-person perspective.
While Capcom only briefly demonstrated the toggle, it appears you can use it at any time and move between first- and third-person modes whenever you want. The game seems to be fully playable in either mode – it’s just a question of whether you prefer seeing protagonist Grace Ashcroft or simply seeing through her eyes.
