Resident Evil 9 is shaping up to be an epic addition to the beloved franchise, with exciting new details emerging from alleged leaks. According to sources, the game will take place four years after the events of Resident Evil Village, with fan-favorite characters Leon S. Kennedy and Jill Valentine as the main playable protagonists. Joining them are familiar faces Chris Redfield and Barry Burton in supporting roles.
Fans can expect a thrilling storyline involving the investigation of a mysterious company creating clones of the bioweapon Eveline using the Megamycete. The game will feature intense gameplay in various locations such as abandoned hospitals, caves, labs, dark forests, and a temple. Players will encounter evolved zombies and new enemies like a stalker pursuing Leon and the terrifying ‘Goat-Man’ hunting Jill.
One of the most intriguing aspects of the leaks is the introduction of a new main villain, Mr. Simon, overseeing the production of bioweapons on the island. Additionally, the return of Blue Umbrella as the ‘good guys’ adds an interesting dynamic to the narrative. With elements of infection, hallucinations, and familiar faces from past games, Resident Evil 9 promises to deliver a spine-chilling experience for fans of the series.
While the leaked details should be taken with a grain of salt, they align with Capcom’s hints of a grand finale to the current trilogy.
