What's crucial to note is that Capcom immediately shared a separate post while subverting fans' expectations of fans and clearly stating that the event "will not include news or updates for other titles."
Now it's not hard for anyone to guess the 'other titles' indicated by Capcom. It seems the publisher wanted to clarify by informing the fans beforehand to not get their hopes high in case they were expecting any announcement on Resident Evil games.
Simply put, RE lovers will need to wait for a while to witness the big news on the franchise and the next installment. With a rumored title of RE9, the game is said to feature a co-op system with two characters.
The protagonist is expected to be Leon Kennedy while the iconic Jill Valentine is rumored to portray a supporting role.
Furthermore, many unspecified leaks have suggested that the game might also include open-world elements. However, it's too early to believe any rumor or speculation unless there comes an actual update from Capcom.
