Hidden teaser or a game of imagination? Gamers saw Capcom's video as a hint of Resident Evil 9
Yesterday Capcom published a report that Resident Evil 4 remake has passed the 10 million copies sold mark and became the most successful game of the series in terms of distribution speed.
In honour of this event, the Japanese developer presented a video, in which attentive viewers saw not only gratitude, but also a hint of a new part of the series.
Here's What We Know
Few people doubt that Capcom is currently developing Resident Evil 9 - insiders often tell about this game, claiming that it will be incredibly ambitious, technological and large-scale, and its events will unfold in Southeast Asia.
In the celebratory video, viewers are shot showing a certain wooden structure that resembles "IX" upside down. Fans saw this as a hidden teaser for Resident Evil 9, while others believe it to be a play of imagination.
However, it should be noted that Capcom is famous for its love of hidden references and subtle flirting with the public, so it cannot be excluded that gamers correctly considered the developers' message. A well-known Dusk Golem insider is also a supporter of such a theory.
Yup, a few have been spotting it. And for the record, I do think its an intentional tongue-in-cheek edit by Capcom for the upcoming RE9 announcement. Outside of the text, the sign in the original game doesn't have the "_" wood piece to make it look like IX.
