Almost four years have passed since we had the opportunity to play the last installment from the popular Resident Evil series. Although the remake of Resident Evil 4 arrived last year, the real breakthrough in the franchise remained RE: Village, which, despite all expectations, was the last game that moved the series forward.
Since then, fans have been awaiting news of a new sequel, RE 9, which still hasn't been officially unveiled.
Although Capcom confirmed last summer that the game's development is in full swing, announcements or concrete details about the game are still lacking. Players are therefore wondering: what is actually happening with Resident Evil 9?
Reasons to wait: the evolution of the series and new approaches
According to reliable information from a well-known insider, Dusk Golem, the reason for waiting so long for the announcement of a new title lies in Capcom's ambitions to raise the series to an even higher level. According to the source, Resident Evil 9 will not follow the formula of previous sequels, such as 7 or 8, nor will it repeat the successful remake from 2023.
"Capcom plans to try something completely new. This game will be much more ambitious, with an emphasis on innovation," said Dusk Golem, known for accurate information regarding the Resident Evil series.
Although still unconfirmed, rumors appearing online suggest that Resident Evil 9 could introduce open-world elements, giving players more freedom to explore the environment. If such information turns out to be correct, it would be a huge step forward in gameplay, as the franchise would abandon the linear tracks that characterized it in previous years.
The most expensive production so far
Also, information comes from unverified sources that Resident Evil 9 could be the most expensive title in the history of the series. Since the franchise has spanned nearly three decades, this would be an important milestone. The production costs could indicate an ambitious production that would take the game to a step higher.
Fans are impatiently waiting for the new franchise, impatient, but also excited, believing that this project will bring them everything they need. We have no doubt that the creators of this video game really know what to do.
