With the official release of “Resident Evil Requiem” (Resident Evil 9: Requiem), the Cosplay circle has quickly caught up with the popularity. The well-known Russian coser Oichi recently released a new set of works on the social platform, incarnating the heroine Grace Ashcroft. From the clothing details to the interpretation of the expression, it is considered to highly restore the game settings!
Grace is a new core character introduced in this game and the daughter of “Reaident Evil Outbreak” character Alyssa Ashcroft. In the plot, she investigates a series of mysterious deaths and returns to the Lenwood Hotel where her mother was killed eight years ago, and then becomes involved in the vortex of conspiracies related to the Raccoon City Quarantine Zone. The character’s background itself has a strong emotional connection and suspense, so it became the focus of discussion among players in the early stages of its release.
Not only Oichi, PeachMilky also challenged Grace
In fact, Oichi isn’t the only famous cosplayer to interpret Grace. On the eve of the game’s release, PeachMilky, an Irish model who has been active in Tokyo for a long time, also released her own version of Grace. PeachMilky is better known among gamers as Ashley Graham’s official body capture model for Resident Evil 4: Remake, so her work is also getting a lot of attention.
The two cosplayers have obviously different styles. One prefers a cold and realistic style, while the other has a more distinctive personal interpretation, which also gives the character images different levels. To some extent, this also reflects that the discussion of the character design of “Resident Evil 9” has extended from the game to the subculture circle.
The popularity of the release continues to grow, and the characters become more topical.
As “Reaident Evil Requiem” has been launched on all major platforms, character topics and secondary content have obviously heated up simultaneously. As the protagonist of a new generation, Grace’s popularity and discussion are rapidly accumulating, and the investment of the cosplay circle will undoubtedly add another wave of exposure to the work.
Judging from game sales data and community creation trends, the popularity of “Reaident Evil Requiem” is still on the rise. Whether there will be more official activities or cross-border cooperation in the future is also worthy of continued observation.
