Two heroes, the return of Umbrella and the goat man: the blogger revealed possible details of Resident Evil 9

Blogger BiohazardDeclassified, who in the past shared truthful information about the then-mysterious Resident Evil Village, revealed supposedly insider details of the not yet officially announced Resident Evil 9. Spoilers are possible.

According to BiohazardDeclassified, citing a “tester of an early version of Resident Evil 9,” the game takes place four years after the finale of Resident Evil Village (not the Shadows of Rose addon).

The plot of Resident Evil 9 supposedly revolves around the company that created Evelina from Resident Evil 7, and now has organized the mass production of her clones using the megamycelium received from Miranda (Resident Evil Village).

The main characters will be Leon Kennedy (resembling himself from the animated film Resident Evil: Damnation) and Jill Valentine with a design in the spirit of Resident Evil 5: Lost in Nightmares, with Chris Redfield and Barry Burton in supporting roles.

In the story, Leon and Jill are infected by megamycelium, which causes the couple to experience hallucinations and hear Evelina’s voice. The main villain will be a certain Mr. Simon, who oversees the production of biological weapons.

What else did the BiohazardDeclassified source say:

  • The scene of action is an island with an abandoned hospital, empty houses, laboratories, a temple, dark forests and caves;
  • Throughout the story, Chris and Barry will turn to Leon and Jill for help with their mission;
  • The most common enemies will be evolved zombies (sound similar to Ganado from the Resident Evil 4 remake);
  • Each of the two main characters will have a personal stalker – for Jill it will be a kind of “goat man”;
  • Representatives of the “blue Umbrella” will return as “good guys”;
  • Resident Evil 9 playtests took place in Japan throughout April and September.

In July, Capcom confirmed plans for the next Resident Evil title, with the project being led by Resident Evil 7 director Koshi Nakanishi. The Resident Evil 9 page appeared on the Metacritic aggregator website in October.
