Okay. There are causes to imagine that is real, and there are causes to imagine it means nothing. Since RE4 Remake, we’ve been ready to listen to extra about the way forward for Capcom’s survival horror collection. A brand new model of Code Veronica appears potential, or perhaps a remake of Resident Evil Zero. Quite the opposite, reasonably than bringing again the oldies, there’s cause to think about {that a} fully-fledged sequel within the type of Resident Evil 9 can be Capcom’s subsequent venture – the Winters’ story may be concluded, or shut sufficient, however there are nonetheless questions on Chris Redfield and the remainder of the mainline forged. Sure, a Resident Evil 9 Metacritic web page has simply appeared and, sure, primarily based on earlier examples, this may very well be genuine. However there are additionally causes to mood our expectations.
Resident Evil 9 feels prefer it may very well be something, happen anyplace. RE7 was a totally completely different sport to Resident Evil 6. Given the delicate response to Village, it feels just like the horror sport is due one other reinvention. However thus far, we’ve heard nothing official. As of at this time, nonetheless, there’s – probably – an enormous clue that RE9 may be formally introduced by Capcom within the imminent future, because the would-be sequel now has a web page and itemizing on stalwart evaluation aggregator web site Metacritic.
Again in October 2023, we reported {that a} Metacritic web page for Grand Theft Auto 6 had abruptly appeared. Two months later, in December, Rockstar confirmed the brand new GTA through that tectonic first trailer. Equally, in December 2023, a Metacritic web page for Resident Evil 4 Remake: Gold Version went stay. Once more, two months later, that sport was formally introduced by Capcom. Primarily based on that proof, the RE9 web page could be the actual factor.
Nonetheless, again after we noticed the GTA 6 web page, we contacted Metacritic to seek out out extra. A consultant for the positioning informed us that Grand Theft Auto 6 had existed inside Metacritic’s database since July 2022, and will have, in concept, generated a web page when it was first submitted. Within the case of the brand new Grand Theft Auto, it looks as if there was a connection between the web page going stay and the announcement from Rockstar – one adopted intently behind the opposite.
However the RE9 web page may very well be the product of a really early submission from Capcom, and we’d not hear something concerning the sport for a very long time but. Keep in mind, Half-Life 3 has had a Metacritic web page for years now. Additionally take into account that, as we investigated ourselves, it’s principally potential for anybody to make a web page on different official itemizing websites similar to that for the Australian age-rating classification board. Doubtlessly, this RE9 Metacritic web page may not be related to the precise sport in any respect.
Whereas we await extra on the potential RE9, take a look at among the different finest upcoming PC video games, or perhaps the very best zombie video games ever made.
