Recently, the related content account "PRE_Alarabiya", which specializes in serving fans of "Resident Evil" in the Arab region, released some revelations about "Resident Evil 9", and the revelations revealed that Leon will be the protagonist of the prologue part of the game.
Here's a translation of the tweet:
We got some information about the ninth part of the Resident Evil series from a "special source" and will share it with you all in this tweet:
· Leon Kennedy will be the main character in the prologue of the game. It is not clear why only the prologue of the game is mentioned, but it is possible that the main character will change as the plot develops.
· In the prologue, the game will be set in Southeast Asia, as previously mentioned by Dusk Golem. Similarly, the location of the game may change as the story progresses.
· The storyline will take place in the summer of 2025, which means that by that time Lyon will be 48 years old.
This information is almost certain because they come from one of our reliable sources. However, the source also mentioned that he heard another news, although he was not so sure, and that was that Resident Evil 1 Remake will be released in 2026.
But why is this possible? Producer Masao Kawada has previously stated that Capcom seems to be preparing something for the series' 30th anniversary, and he ended his words with "details kept secret".
Given that the 30th anniversary will arrive in 2026 and, according to sources, Resident Evil 1 Remake will be released in 2026, which could be the "thing" that Capcom is preparing, especially since it has to do with the anniversary.
(Last...... Regardless of the accuracy and credibility of this information, we will not make assertions about anything we have discussed, as Capcom may change its mind overnight, so all we can do is be patient. ）
