According to well-known insider Dusk Golem, the upcoming *Resident Evil* title is set for a major transformation, drawing comparisons to the evolutionary leaps seen in *Resident Evil 4* and *Resident Evil 7*. If his insights are accurate, fans can look forward to more than just visual upgrades—this game promises significant changes to gameplay mechanics, atmosphere, and overall presentation, potentially redefining the series for a new generation.
Despite Capcom's continued silence on the matter, some reports hint that the game could be officially revealed as early as this year. Dusk Golem has suggested that the extended development time is due to these sweeping revisions, which he claims will deliver a fresh and surprising experience for players.

That said, Dusk Golem’s credibility has come under scrutiny in recent years. While he once enjoyed a reputation for accuracy, many of his recent claims—particularly those related to the *Resident Evil* franchise—have failed to materialize or have been proven incorrect. Some fans have also pointed out instances where he misrepresented publicly known details as exclusive insider knowledge, which has significantly eroded trust in his reports. Although his intel may carry more weight for other titles, his statements regarding *Resident Evil 9* remain met with growing skepticism.
Until Capcom officially breaks its silence, all details surrounding *Resident Evil 9* remain speculative. For now, fans can only wait and hope that whatever is coming lives up to the hype—and delivers the next iconic leap for the franchise.
