This is what Resident Evil 9 would look like according to a leak
- Protagonists: Leon and Jill will be the main characters, with Jill playing a similar role to Sheva and Chris in RE5.
- Game structure: It won’t be a completely open world, but it will incorporate open world elements similar to RE Village and RE4 Remake.
- Initial cooperative design: Originally intended as a cooperative game, but Capcom could have removed this aspect due to the success of single-player games like RE7 and RE Village.
- Jill’s Position: Capcom considered removing Jill to focus on Leon and the single-player game, but decided to keep her due to her reduced involvement in RE5. Jill remains a main character, although her specific role is unclear.
- Cooperative design possible: If the game is still cooperative, it could be like RE5 and RE6, RE0 (free switching between characters) or have separate campaigns for each character.
- Secondary characters: The supporting characters could be Barry for Jill and Ada for Leon, although this is not confirmed.
- Focus on History: RE9 will not focus on Blue Umbrella and probably not on the BSAA cliffhanger at the end of Village, although the latter could play a small role in the game.
- Perspective of the game: This will be in third person, with a possible first person addition later, similar to The Evil Within 2.
- Enemies: The enemies will be zombies, but faster and more aggressive to pose a suitable threat to Jill and Leon.
