A recent report on Resident Evil Requiem (also known as Resident Evil 9) has unveiled an unexpected twist: Capcom is hiding the fact that there will be more than one playable character in the sequels to Resident Evil 7 and Resident Evil Village. The game, which was officially announced by Capcom this month for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X, with a release date set for next February, introduces a new character, Grace Ashcroft, who takes center stage in the upcoming Resident Evil title. However, it seems that Grace isn’t the only protagonist as per the latest report.
The latest news about Resident Evil Remake originates from AestheticGamer, a well-known figure within Capcom. Although AestheticGamer’s accuracy isn’t always spot-on when it comes to leaks, they have demonstrated enough consistency, particularly in relation to Capcom, to win the confidence of many. Based on this insider’s information, there are reportedly two main characters for Resident Evil Remake, one of whom is Leon, a character first introduced in Resident Evil 2 and who has since been the protagonist in Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 6 as well.
It seems quite possible that Capcom has a significant revelation up their sleeve regarding this project. The timing of when they might choose to unveil it—before or after the game’s launch—remains uncertain, as the report doesn’t provide any specific details on their plans.
It’s important to mention that this isn’t a new assertion from this particular source; instead, they have reinforced their statement following the absence of the character in the unveiling trailer. Essentially, they appear quite certain about the details they’re sharing.
On a more casual note, here’s what an insider shared about X: “Personally, I don’t care who RE9 or any other RE stars are. What truly matters to me is having great Resident Evil games. I really enjoyed Ethan and think Grace will be fantastic too. I appreciate when RE offers unique perspectives. It’s not that I’m pushing for Leon as the main character, it’s just my assumption based on what I know. People can have their opinions, Capcom will do their marketing. Only time will tell if I’m correct about this.
Absolutely, consider the information provided here with some skepticism since Capcom hasn’t made any official comments about it yet. There are several reasons why we think they might not respond, but if they do, we’ll be sure to update this story immediately.
