Resident Evil 9 Reveal Rumored for Summer Game Fest on June 6
WhenResident Evil 9is revealed, it will be interesting to see what exactly the game is bringing to the table. It’s been claimed thatResident Evil 9will feature Leon S. Kennedy as the main character, which would make sense considering his popularity and how well theResident Evil 4remake did. There have also been claims thatResident Evil 9will be a reinvention of the franchise at the same level as the originalResident Evil 4andResident Evil 7, and one has to wonder what exactly that means.
The leading theory is thatResident Evil 9will be open world, and while there may be some opposed to that direction, Capcom’s hot streak can’t be denied, and it could open the door to some interesting new ways to experienceResident Evil. In any case, here’s hoping theResident Evil 9Summer Game Fest rumors are accurate and fans get their answers this Friday.
