New Resident Evil game has been announced and it’s a real-time strategy game

As a thrilled fan, I can’t contain my excitement as a fresh Resident Evil title has been unveiled! Contrary to expectations, it’s not Resident Evil Requiem or Resident Evil 10 (we’re still a ways off). Instead, the surprise is a brand new strategic Real-Time Strategy (RTS) game: Resident Evil Survival Unit. I can hardly wait!

The upcoming year looks set to be dominated by Resident Evil, as Requiem is unveiled with an early 2026 release date. However, that’s not the next Resident Evil game you’ll play. Instead, fans of horror adventures can look forward to delving into Resident Evil Survival Unit, a new adventure jointly developed by Aniplex Inc. and Joycity Corporation.

This game is designed for mobile devices, which means you can’t play it on your computer or gaming console. However, since you can play it anytime, anywhere, it could be seen as a convenient alternative, despite being limited to mobile platforms.

Resident Evil Survival Unit to be revealed soon

According to a recent press announcement, the Resident Evil Survival Unit is now accessible for play on various mobile devices, including those running Android and iOS operating systems.

As a fervent admirer, I’m excited to share that this project is being jointly developed by Aniplex Inc. and Joycity Corporation, the dynamic duo behind captivating games such as Gunship Battle and Pirates of the Caribbean: Tides of War. Rest assured, they are actively collaborating closely with Capcom to maintain authenticity and quality. The result? A strategy game that promises to be a delight for both seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers alike.

The appearance of the game when it launches is still unknown, but don’t worry! We have scheduled a showcase for July 10 at 3 pm PDT (11 pm BST, 5 pm CDT, 6 pm EDT). During this event, we anticipate unveiling extensive gameplay and a trailer to give you a glimpse of how this RTS will run on mobile devices.

As a devoted fan, it’s clear to me that the game appears to be connected to Umbrella Corp, judging by the sign visible in the picture.

If the anticipation for Resident Evil Requiem leaves your Resi cravings unsatisfied, perhaps Resident Evil Survival Unit can hold you over until its release in February 2026.
