Resident Evil 9 could be an open-world game, it’s been claimed.
According to X user ‘Dusk Golem’, who has a long track record of reporting information about video games before it has been made public, Resident Evil 9 is being developed as an open-world game.
“Dragon’s Dogma 2 expanded RE Engine functionality for open-world games, the two other games building on this tech is Monster Hunter Wild & Resident Evil 9.”
While Resident Evil Village allowed players to traverse between several larger, semi-open areas, the main series has yet to experiment with a fully open world.
Monster Hunter Wild, the sequel to Monster Hunter World, was announced in December 2023. The game is set for release in 2025, although Capcom has shared few details about the game. More information about the game will be made public in summer 2024, according to Capcom.
Capcom has yet to publically announce the next mainline entry in the Resident Evil series, nor has it announced the next of its remakes.
It was revealed earlier this week that Capcom was Metacritic’s highest-rated publisher in 2023, based on the quality of its releases last year.
However, that hasn’t stopped its latest release, Dragon’s Dogma 2, coming under criticism.
While the game received glowing pre-release reviews, following today’s launch it has had a ‘mixed’ reception on Steam, where just 40% of over 9,300 user reviews are positive.
Players discovered on Friday that there are 21 separate DLC purchases available on day one. Disappointment appears to stem from the fact that some of them are for things that players feel should be easier to obtain in-game for free.
