According to a Twitter account created just to reveal unofficial information from Resident Evil, Resident Evil 8 is now being developed by Capcom, although the priority is to release Resident Evil 3 Remake first.
The only source of this rumor is Evil VR, read some of it’s “leaks” down below:
Also heard that Capcom will not launch #RE8 before launching #RE3Remake. No words if #RECV is even considered to be remade. Fans should also expect that Capcom has no interest in remaking or even retconning #RE4, #RE5 & #RE6. Two games are being focused on are 3 Remake & 8.
#RE8: From what I can gather, the setting for 8 will take place in an recently-abandoned island where the secret laboratory is located. The story so far is to uncover the truth behind the creation of Eveline and more of similar bio-weapons. (1/2)
(2/2) Some concepts from 3.5 (hook-man) will be borrowed for 8. Hallucinations will play a big part, getting players confused on what’s real or not. Still early but so far they’ve listed what they need for #RE8
In his last tweet, Evil VR says he revealed all that he could, but maybe he would get more information before E3 2019. Well I already have my salt ready and I hope you guys too, we cannot confirm this rumors, but it’s interesting what he says, if I would’ve to describe Resident Evil 2 Remake in one word it would be epic, the game has been a success for Capcom, and we can expect more remakes and even a Resident Evil 8, specially now that players are hyped with the idea and what Capcom has accomplished with the gameplay.
