What to Expect from CAPCOM’s ‘RE9’?
Rose Winters is also set to make an appearance as her blood is needed to create a vaccine for the island’s residents, with Jill and Leon set to be infected by the Megamycete. The leaks claim to suggest that “RE9” will tie up “Biohazard” and “Village’s” stories which introduced the fungal bacteria.
It was also revealed that Leon Kennedy will be constantly stalked and Jill Valentine will be attacked by the Goatman in the game.
The main enemies will be zombies who can use melee weapons, similar to “RE4’s” Ganados, and are moon worshippers. On the other hand, the game’s main antagonist will center on a new character that is only referred to as ‘Mr. Simon.’
‘Resident Evil 9’s Early Rumors
It has been three years since CAPCOM released the last installment of its famed franchise, but the company still has nothing to share with its fans regarding its “Resident Evil 9” despite beliefs that teasers were already revealed in “Village.” In the game’s final cutscene, a hidden message was left behind by the team which confirms the death of Ethan Winters (for good) and Rose Winters stepping up to fight evil.
Moreover, there are game analysts and insiders who believe that the upcoming “Resident Evil 9” will be the biggest game among all titles released by CAPCOM, especially as it was built up with the highly successful “RE8.” Apart from Rose taking on Ethan’s mantle, there are also beliefs that this upcoming game will see the return of the original characters after taking a detour with Winters’ story.
Early rumors also claimed that apart from bringing back iconic characters and several anticipated elements, CAPCOM is also working on making the game an open world which expands more of the experience for all. The latest leak is now corroborating the earlier claims regarding the original protagonists set to make their return, joining Rose Winters in this new story, and now facing a new threat that will tie up the past two games.
