As per a reliable source, the release date for Resident Evil 9 is expected to be in 2025. Resident Evil, which has been a highly successful franchise for Capcom, regularly releases new games in the series. Given the continued success of the franchise, it comes as no surprise that Capcom is currently developing the ninth installment.
Speculations about Capcom's plans for Resident Evil 9 have been circulating for some time. Some unverified leaks suggest that the game will feature skin-walker monsters and be set in a "ghost town" in the western region. Whether these leaks hold any truth is yet to be determined, but fans can expect to discover the truth when the reveal of Resident Evil 9 takes place, as anticipated, in 2024.
The latest details on Resident Evil 9 have surfaced from reliable source AestheticGamer, also known as Dusk Golem, renowned for their accurate leaks regarding Resident Evil and horror games. According to them, Capcom is expected to officially announce Resident Evil 9 in 2024, followed by its release in 2025. While an exact launch date remains unknown, this information ensures that fans should not anticipate playing Resident Evil 9 before 2025.
Considering the potential wait for Resident Evil 9, enthusiasts may be curious about Capcom's upcoming projects in the interim. The aforementioned leaker also reveals that Capcom will unveil a "major title" towards the end of 2023, with a subsequent release scheduled for fall 2024. Unfortunately, there are no hints regarding the nature of this title, but the absence of any direct relation to the Resident Evil series suggests it may be a different project altogether.
It could be speculated that a new Monster Hunter game is the most likely outcome. Monster Hunter World, which was released five years ago, may be due for a sequel as it achieved tremendous success. While Monster Hunter Rise was well-received, its development for the Nintendo Switch limited its scope compared to World. Given the unprecedented sales of World, it seems plausible that a direct sequel is in the realm of possibility.
Regarding the Resident Evil franchise, no new games have been officially announced. However, there have been rumors circulating that Capcom may release additional DLC for the Resident Evil 4 remake in the near future. This potential DLC could include the addition of the Separate Ways campaign to the game.
Resident Evil 9 is rumored to be in development.
