Fans will be thrilled that Resident Evil 9 has fallen victim to a huge leak

As a cult franchise, we had to reckon that Resident Evil 9 would collapse one day. Btw, did a date just leak? We explain what you need to know.

Resident Evil Village (aka Episode 8) was a very big hit for Capcom, notably by surpassing the symbolic mark of 8 million copies last June (2023 at the time of writing this news). It was enough for the Japanese publisher to want to make a new episode. At least that’s what we can learn from the information of an insider who informs us about the release date of RE9.

Resident Evil 9 on track?

Insider Dusk Golem has leaked new information on this topic on Discord resident Evil. This is not the first time, as he has been a certain specialist for several years. The difference is that this time it is the release date of a specific title resident evil 9. Here are all his comments on the game in question, which by the way have not been officially confirmed by Capcom:

I will say 2025 but it will likely be announced next year. I won’t be answering any more questions about RE, but I’ll get to the point. There’s a big Capcom game that will be announced at the end of the year and released in fall 2024, and it’s likely that RE9 will be announced next year and released in 2025.

According to various rumours, the game is apparently in development under the codename Resident Evil Apocalypse and could feature mythological creatures such as the satyr, hrendigos, and other folkloric monsters. Dusk Golem has also teased another title that Capcom is expected to reveal later this year. Release is planned for fall 2024. Many fans suspect that this is the next game. monster hunter

and the successor of Monster Hunter World. Obviously and as always, it’s possible that this unannounced mystery game is something completely different, so all that remains is to wait and, above all, be very patient.

What to expect ?

In addition to the release date, another insider released some (always with caution) information about the fact that the game resident Evil 9 could star Chris, Claire Redfield and Jill Valentine. Or 3 big stars of the franchise. The message from that time can still be found online on the Twitter account of the informant concerned:
