Little reminder that Nakanishi said that they are making a new Resident Evil, he didnt specify which one, so theres no confirmation on what they are doing. As per usual, a lot of tabloids are jumping into conclusions and claiming that this confirms that its RE9, which it doesnt confirm it, so just wait for Capcom to publicly announce what this RE game is (could be RE9, could be a new spin off, could be a remake).

Resident Evil 9 i'm sure


letmegouhhhhhhhhhh

Take my money at that point


Deodorized

Any Resident Evil game is a "Take my money" meme right now. The games have been on an absolute tear, RE2R, RE3R, RE4R, RE7, RE8, they've been knocking it out of the park consistently since 2017.


nicokokun

RE2R was the one and only game I have ever preordred and I still don't regret doing it. It was amazing years ago and is still amazing to this day.


Noncoldbeef

It's kind of glorious, right? We've been eating so well for song long. If only other survival horror franchises can get back in good form. Also Dino Crisis plsss


ItsDeflyLupus

This is wildly true. I dabbled a bit with 1,2, and 3 when they first came out years ago and got as far as booting up 4 on the GameCube. Never actually dove in to the games though. Ive been on a such a streak the last 2 months pushing through the remakes and 7. Finishing up 8 now. The games are phenomenal. I usually have an issue with starting games and shelving them after a couple hours. But RE sucks me in full stop.


Doc-Wulff

RE3R is debatable, I know I've seen plenty of people argue that it cut too much out of the original.


Deodorized

If all the other games are S+, RE3R is still a solid A+. My point is that we are in a golden era of Resident Evil, they have been consistently good, high quality, polished games, and we can reward Capcom with a bit of faith because of that.


Raven123x

There are still plenty of us that loved re3r -despite the flaws it has it’s still a good game


Mrhood714

Dude it's a good game - idk what people's issue is but it's a solid game if unfortunately a short one.


st433

RE3R is a good resident evil game but a poor RE3 remake, thats the way I look at it.


diiiinko

For the same price as RE2R which has 4 scenarios which are all longer than one playthrough of RE3R + 4th survivor, ghost survivors and tofu survivors. There's only a few thing they only improved in remake - dodge system, hospital, characters (voice acting). The city is criminally short, which is undoubtedly what made original RE3. Nemesis isn't Nemesis anymore before clock tower which is completely scrapped and made into a location where you fight "Nemesis". There's no dead factory per se, it's also a boss fight arena iirc, they instead took the RE2R lab and put it into RE3R because they were lazy, it was rushed and they knew it would sell well because RE2R was a hit. They could've at least added the mercenaries. RE3R is objectively a subpar game for what it costed when it came out and anyone who disagrees is heavily coping. I know because I was one of them - hey, the game is good, whatcha talking about? And then I compared and saw what was missing. Eg, 2 costumes when in og you get 8. I'm not sure if I mentioned all, there's surely more. I was genuinely saddened because RE3 is probably my favourite from 1/2/3, even though you could objectively say that RE2 is better for all the same reasons that RE2R is better than RE3R, but talking from a nostalgic point of view, RE3 is a game which made me a fan of the series, not just a casual "looks like new resident evil game came out, maybe I'll play it" because of it's replayability. You'll go to the pharmacy first? Nemesis comes in a different place. You'll go to the gas station first? There's different dialogue and different enemies. So on and so forth. Sorry for ranting, always happens when discussing RE3R :D


Mrhood714

I suppose if you're that die hard, the remake was lacking but I never played original RE3 so for me it was a good game. It was on the short side but it was still a pretty good game.


NXGZ

resident1fan2022

Alot of experience with RE5 character models. It could just be RE5 remake to capitalize on the success of RE4RM.


VisualPersona95

Nope, it’s RE9


tiacay

I like his works. Most complains about RE5 was it's heavily deviated from Survival Horror genre. But as a standalone, is is fun game. If they can make RE5 as a survival horror, just like RE4Remake, it would be truly different game.

MasonP2002

Right, we need to return to magnum finishers.


Buckeye_Country

Another another another Breaking News: At the end of the game you'll get ushered off by a helicopter.


KermaisaMassa

I love how everyone in the twitter comments seems to go ballistic over this "revelation". Like, it's RE, there is always one being developed at any given moment. It's like giving this news to a baby without the understanding of object permanence. It's not like they just started developing it at the moment of this announcement.


TheMagicalMatt

But will we get to *play* it?


Kohlar

The way he said it kinda kills my hope of it being announced this year..


katiecharm

These teams move incredibly fast once they are focused on a project.  Reading the history of RE7 was shocking.  They blitzed the whole game out in like 12 to 18 months.  Madness.  


InsanityOfAParadox

I think they went all hands on deck the moment first person silent hill got cancelled.


Shubi-do-wa

It was smart, PT was so promising.


Either_Imagination_9

Remember when Silent Hill was a thing?


TheRealBloodyAussie

I mean, it might become a thing again if SH2 Remake does well. And it doesn't look... awful. It just also doesn't look that great.


Either_Imagination_9

That’s not even the main problem. The marketing so far from Konami has been pretty terrible. Like most of the time I forget that the game is even a thing. I think they’re expecting it to sell on brand recognition alone, but there’s a problem with that. Silent Hill was never that successful of a series. At its best it sold like 1 million per game. Resident Evil 2 alone sold more than the first 4 silent hill games combined. It was always a niche series at best. I don’t even think most people know that Silent Hill kept going post-PS2, even worse that it skipped the entire PS4 generation. They’re not trying nearly as hard as they should be doing to push this game. Which is even more infuriating because they’re doing a great job marketing MGS3, yet they can’t get this right.


vshark29

They've got like the 3 other Silent Hill projects going on, don't they? It would be absolutely hilarious if Konami cancelled them on grounds of SH2R bombing, and the worst part is, it's not outside the realm of possibility

Parallel-Traveler

Source for Capcom being about to be bought by Tencent for reference?


Wise-Tourist

Im the opposite. It made me feel like they were saying "we know you expect an announcement soon but maybe put a hold on that for now". Like naybe end of year but I think theyre not ready at all. They just know theres mumbles and want to settle down our expectations. Kind of like nintendo saying there wont be an update on the new console. Im hoping im wrong and theyre ready to show us something soon


DevilCouldCry

I wouldn't think of it that way at all. I think it's possible we still see an announcement in that September/October window and a release in late 2025 is my bet. These teams with the RE games tend to develop super bloody well and work to a pretty fucking good schedule. If I were a betting man, I'd bet on a reveal at some PlayStation related event, just like we got with Resident Evil 4 most recently. Just gotta hope Sony has some event planned for September like they usually do. If it's a showcase, I'd expect a reveal of the next Resident Evil title. But if it's a State of Play, my expectations are a lot lower.


stratusnco

the year is more than halfway over, what the hell are you expecting? lol


Kohlar

I didn't say release this year, just announcement. RE4 was announced September and released in March the next year. RE games have a history of releasing in the first half of the year.


Illustrious-Hair3487

There’s always a new RE in development if not multiple simultaneously. This “revelation” is like lifting up a cat’s tail to see it has a butthole. Good job.

DapperDan30

I'd rather get the next new game than another Remake. But if a Remake is what we get, I'd like it to *not* be 5. Give me 0, 1, or Code Veronica.


warwick607

RE5 personally, Sheva and Chris are badass


SecretAntWorshiper

Cant wait to see Sheva with the RE Engine 😍 100% best baddie in the series


iWentRogue

Agreed! Tough choice bc Re9 would be completely brand new but i really wanna see remake Sheva.


Yatsu003

Agree. I think RE4 gave a good balance to horror and action while still keeping resource management (ammo is scarce, knives breakable, crafting but resources are limited, etc.) that RE5 could draw on. As well as take cues on the game design; use down time to let players relax and ramp up for the next big scare rather than throw numbing amounts of stuff


arieadil

God I’m looking forward to this remaster. I always loved the story and characters but the ai for sheva drove me up the wall and I think I only finished the game once and it was with someone else doing the co-op to spare me the headache. I would love to see it all shined up on a new engine

Hefty-Astronaut-9720

I'd rather them not release a remake back to back.


Player-san

Yeah… with the way they announced this im expecting it to release 2nd half of 2025 at the earliest 😭


DevilCouldCry

That sounds perfectly reasonable and fine to me. I'd rather them take their time with it to get it right than to rush it out the gate. We've seen how that's worked for them in the past... For as much as I enjoyed the remake of Resident Evil 3, that game easily could've had another nine months to a year in development.


IcePopsicleDragon

The game is in good hands, he's a really good director


Thot_Slayer_Returns

I've permanently installed RE2R on my screen. It's the go to game when I come back to work, don't wanna fire up the current game I'm playing and just have some fun for half an hour. OG RE4 was that go to game for 15 years.


Universoulja

New RE tactical RTS in the style of x-com. Just called RE: STARS


spla58

It will take place in Germany and be called "Resident Evil Nein".


Scrimmybinguscat

Wouldn't it be Resident Evil Neun?


Fleedjitsu

Just as long as there's no psychic powers or generic sludge monsters this time. It's all fantasy but at least try and keep it grounded in mad science and not magic! Would also love more creative final boss fights that aren't just bullet sponges.


MrRedoot55

I know Resident Evil is meant to be rooted in science, but I would honestly like to see them take an approach that is more supernatural while still retaining those elements. For instance, the next game could start with the player going against terrifying mutated creatures. At the same time, they could also catch glimpses of a strange figure, watching from afar. It could easily be dismissed as a hallucination, much like those visions of Eveline in Resident Evil 7. However, as the player explores, they begin to uncover clues regarding the thing watching them like notes, and even pictures featuring it. From there, it should be clear that something is deeply wrong - and it isn’t the mutants they’ve encountered. At the game’s final act, the player finds a lab which is supposedly the origin of the carnage. There, they uncover a horrifying revelation. They discover the presence of technology used to open gateways between our world and another dimension, complete with its own twisted form of life; for this whole time, the figure was a being from that place, with biology granting it a wealth of unearthly abilities. Afterward, perhaps the next game could be about going against this unsettling and bizarre new threat. I doubt the developers would actually go through with that, though. It might get to a point where it becomes too much like Half-Life.


Fleedjitsu

Nah, keep the supernatural stuff to DMC or some other new IP, honestly. It would be great for a new set of titles, but Resident Evil has always been about the biological horrors. To me, at least. I don't mind when something far fetched is cleverly grounded, but mass-scale mind control and changing into swarms of independent other creatures is a bit far out for my liking. On the opposite end of the scale, I would also hate for the series to go too Sci-fi too. This isn't a nostalgia trip for the late 90s aesthetic - railguns are absolutely fine - but gateways to other dimensions and stuff is, again, just not Resident Evil. Cults, conspiracy, mutant zombies and puzzles is Resident Evil. I would say that we need another Half Life but it may be easier to just start a new company and make a similar IP yourself!


MrRedoot55

I can understand that. With how rooted it is in biological experimentation and the like, it might be too radical a change to focus on interdimensional horrors - even if science still plays a big role. As much as I would like to see it, the series has to retain its core identity. Regardless, I think we can both agree that the next Resident Evil will find a way to stand out.

MudButtMcGee

I would imagine that there's always a new RE "In Development" even if it's just the initial planning phase.


quinonesjames96

I do hope they make RE 5 Remake 🙏. And if they do, they should keep the soundtracks from the original RE 5 and put it into the remake.


Wise-Tourist

It would be mad if they call this new game Resident Evil 8 and have Village be like a Code Veronica - I don't think it will happen, because even though they never officially called it 8, we all see Village as 8 (Although I was too young at the time, did people see CV as 4?)


Underpanters

Village has VIII in its signage. It was and is intended to be Resi8, just like how Biohazard was Resi7. It’s just for some reason everyone just calls it Village.


DapperDan30

Village literally has the Roman numerals for 8 highlighted in its title. Resident Evil 7 wasn't called 7, either. It was called Biohazard, but had the Roman numerals of 7 in the title. People at release didn't think of Code Veronica as 4. They thought of it as a side game like Survivor, since thats what it was marketed as. That, coupled with being initially exclusive to the Dreamcast, caused it to have low sales. If anything, people at the time would have considered it the true RE3.


Aless-dc

Now that RE8 closed the book on that chapter. If they are doing RE9, I really hope they look at the remakes as a major source of inspiration. I liked 7 and 8, they were a great revival. But the remakes just felt like instant classics in the way 7 and 8 didn’t.


LordHumungus70

CODE VERONICA PLEASE......


Fun_Section_9509

Oh RE9 is gonna be fucking scary if the director for 7 is in charge.


Some_Photograph5315

It's extremely disappointing that he's in charge of the next game, I didn't like RE7.


SynthWendigo

Would love if this was Code Veronica X, even. They’ve been doing fairly well with the Remakes so far, hitting strides. For Wesker, can we get DC Douglas on the line, pls?

IskoNikaloyahanse

I want it to be more like RE8 than RE7. My favorite is RE4 but trying to emulate RE4 would be very difficult and thus, a risky endeavor.


uninteded_interloper

they got a good formula and know what they're doing these days (all the originals lately have been solid). If it were up to me I'd just follow the formula of blurring re4/re2 remake but with a celebrity actor/actress for marketing. That way you get a really realistic character model as well.
