Amidst widespread speculation, Nakanishi confirmed that a brand new Resident Evil game is currently in development, promising an experience that goes beyond anything seen before in the franchise.
A Fresh Vision For Resident Evil
Following his directorial success with Resident Evil 7, Nakanishi discussed the challenges of charting a new course for the series. Known for its radical shift to first-person perspective and heightened horror elements, Resident Evil 7 reinvigorated the franchise while polarizing some longtime fans. Now, with the upcoming installment, Nakanishi aims to push boundaries once again, emphasizing a significant leap forward in both concept and execution.
We’re making a new Resident Evil. It was really difficult to figure out what to do after Resident Evil 7, but I found it, and to be honest, it feels substantial. I can’t share any details just yet, but I hope you’re excited for the day I can.
As details remain tightly under wraps, anticipation grows for the day when Capcom reveals more about this ambitious project. For now, fans can only speculate on what surprises await in this long awaited new chapter of survival horror.
