Resident Evil: Requiem is the ninth major installment in the Resident Evil franchise, serving as the sequel to Village. Developed and published by Capcom, it was released on February 27th, 2026. The game follows intelligence analyst Grace Ashcroft and federal agent Leon Kennedy, who were conducting their own investigations into the mysterious deaths of Raccoon City’s survivors. Their paths would not only converge, but their journeys would force them to confront their past as they inevitably travel back to the ruins of Raccoon City.
RE9 continues to use Plak Extra Condensed for the series logo, which uses a similar scratchy design from Resident Evil 7. “Requiem” is in an unknown typewriter-like font.
In-game, ITC American Typewriter is used only in the main menu and the save menu. Neue Frutiger Roman is used as the primary and body font for the UI which is complimented with Kairos Sans. Rodin is used exclusively for the subtitles once again. The occasional title card at the start of each chapter uses Helvetica Condensed Bold. More niche uses include Univers 57 Condensed which is only used in the HUD for number counters and Univers Ultra Condensed for button prompts. UD Kakugo is used for the notification bar.
I’m not one to normally question the decisions of designers, but I will make one very rare exception here. I don’t know why this game needed so many typefaces, I feel like this list of fonts could be cut in half and almost nothing would change. A slightly bizzare detail to an otherwise fantastic game.

Excellent resource! Thank you! Looking to identify the fonts used during the end credits sequence of Resident Evil Requiem (RE9), which seems to be a distressed version of a common font for job titles, and a more custom handwritten font for names. Can’t place either! Perhaps made for the game? Here are a few screenshots from RE9’s end credits for reference. Thanks very much! This site is an excellent resource.
Update! Found out the handwritten font is Graphena from Linotype!
