A fresh, clear hint points to the direction Capcom may take with Resident Evil 9. The studio seems to be actively developing the ninth main entry, a move that passed under many fans’ radar.
Capcom celebrated the strong reception of the Resident Evil 4 Remake, posting a message thanking fans and noting that the remake surpassed ten million players. In the same update, developers shared a brief video that included a subtle nod to Resident Evil 9. At the end of the clip, a wooden sign appears; when the frame is rotated, the Roman numeral IX becomes visible. Fans across social networks interpreted this as a hidden hint to the next chapter that some people missed (Capcom press release, 2024).
An established insider from the Duskgolem circle drew attention to the sign in the video, though no fresh specifics about the project were shared. Fans connected to the De Hoop community expect an official announcement and the first trailer for Resident Evil 9 soon. Last year Capcom confirmed work on the ninth entry, with Koshi Nakanishi listed among the developers, a figure who previously led the team on Resident Evil 7. Rumors from the same insider network suggest a concerted push toward a new direction for the series, with open-world elements discussed as a possible feature for the next chapter.
At this stage, no official release date exists for Resident Evil 9. The latest leaks point to a window around late 2025 or 2026. With the recent teaser in view, expectations rise for the first trailer, more plot details, and character reveals in the near term.
