In addition to revealing the release date for RE 9, Dusk Golem has also indicated that Capcom has plans to unveil a significant project this year. Redditors have already begun speculating about what this project might be, with some suggesting it could be the next installment in the Monster Hunter series or a remake of Code Veronica.

Others have even speculated about the possibility of a RE 5 remake, which seems plausible given Capcom's recent focus on remakes. However, it's worth noting that in terms of the series chronology, Code Veronica actually comes before RE 4.

Rumors were circulating about RE 9, and speculations even surfaced about the game's potential title, possibly being called Apocalypse. A well-known YouTuber, Residence of Evil, created a detailed video explaining leaks from 4Chan that shed light on the concept of the next RE title. According to Residence of Evil, the upcoming game could serve as a continuation of Ethan Winter's Saga and might be the grand finale of his storyline.

This speculation gains some credibility because, in the Rose DLC, keen-eyed fans spotted someone who resembled Ethan at the end, hinting at his potential return. If these rumors prove true, fans could witness a thrilling plot where Rose, Ethan, and the beloved franchise character Chris join forces to confront their latest threat.
