Metacritic Removes AI-Generated Videogamer Review Of Resident Evil Requiem

Metacritic removed a suspicious 9/10 review of Capcom's Resident Evil Requiem posted on Videogamer.com on Feb. 27, 2026 after readers flagged generative-AI indicators and a fabricated author. The aggregator warned it will ban sites relying on AI writing and deleted the submission; Videogamer is owned by ClickOut Media, which recently replaced staff-produced pieces with AI-generated content. The game's Metacritic average remains 88.
