Resident Evil 9 has been announced and everyone is wondering when it will be presented. Maybe at State of Play?
We know that Resident Evil 9 is currently in development at Capcom and has been for some time. Numerous rumors from several sources have been fueling fan speculation for months. Capcom, the only official source, has just revealed its existence to us and stated that the game has been in the works for some time. Kōshi Nakanishi, game director, who held the same position on Resident Evil 7, told us that he is looking forward to coming and presenting his game to us soon.
Since that announcement, the rumors have been in full swing again. According to the tipsters with the highest confidence index, Resident Evil 9 was supposed to arrive over the summer for an early 2025 release. A few weeks after that news, it was said th at the internal schedule had changed and that the announcement would be made a little later in the year. Since then, we’ve only been waiting for one thing: to know when!
When Sony announced its State of Play, an important meeting that allows for announcements, it only caught the attention of some fans. What if Resident Evil 9 was there?
A presentation at State of Play?
A question that reached the ears of one of the most important informants about the franchise and horror games in general, Dusk Golem. It was he who recently revealed everything about Silent Hill The Short Message and most of Konami’s plans, and of course information about the Resident Evil 4 Remake before its time.
Golem came to answer fans’ questions, only to dampen their enthusiasm. If Resident Evil 9 is coming soon, it certainly won’t be during State of Play, which takes place on September 24th at 11:59 p.m.
“To be 100% transparent, I have not heard any rumors that Resident Evil 9 will be revealed tomorrow, either from my sources or those of others.”he shares on X. No RE9 was presented during the Sony show, at least according to what he heard. However, he makes no secret of the fact that there could be a surprise, even if the chances are very slim in his opinion: “I wish I was wrong and we had something on RE9, but personally I don’t think now is the time to announce it. »
If Resident Evil 9 does come out this year, there’s a better chance it will be unveiled at a special Capcom event or, why not, during the Game Awards at the end of the year, THE industry’s big gathering.
