Capcom has announced that it is working with Yume Group and S.Ride to hold collaboration campaigns celebrating the release of Resident Evil Requiem in Japan. The former will particularly release a special bundle that combines a physical copy of Resident Evil Requiem with its own hanging fitness equipment.

Buyers can choose between a PlayStation 5 Blu-ray disc package or a Nintendo Switch 2 game key card to be bundled in the same box as the fitness equipment. Capcom has also provided a render of Grace trying out the equipment to help Yume Group promote the product.

The Resident Evil Requiem hanging fitness equipment bundle is priced at ¥19,800 (~$127.50), and Yume Group opened pre-orders on its website at 8 AM JST. However, it could only prepare 50 copies of the bundle, and all of those were already sold out in less than half a day.

Yume Group has also published a trailer promoting the bundle on its YouTube channel:

In the same press release, Capcom also revealed that S.Ride will temporarily launch ten taxis sporting the Resident Evil Requiem promotion livery from February 23 until March 1, 2026. These taxis will run around the cities of Tokyo, Musashino, and Mitaka.

During the above campaign period, the S.Ride app on iOS and Android will feature an Umbrella Corporation icon that users can tap to find and call the specially branded taxi.

Resident Evil Requiem will be available simultaneously worldwide for PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X, and PC on February 27, 2026. Yume Group will also release its hanging fitness equipment bundle on the same day.

This stream will feature four of the game's key staff members: Producer Yosuke Saito, Creative Director Yoko Taro, Composer Keiichi Okabe, and Senior Game Designer Takahisa Taura. The four will hold a lighthearted talk show for around two hours. Square Enix will afterward hold an after-talk session exclusively available to Niconico Premium members.

They must then purchase a ticket for 999 yen (~$6.35) by February 7, 2026, to confirm their attendance.

The 9th anniversary of NieR: Automata will formally fall on February 23, 2026. Square Enix first released the game for PlayStation 4 in Japan on February 23, 2017.
