Will Resident Evil turn into Silent Hill? – Rumor has it that Resident Evil 8 will have occultism and insanity
Allegedly, Capcom was developing Resident Evil 8 but decided to postpone this project until better times. At the same time, the company did not want to have too much time between Resident Evil 7 and 8. Therefore, it was decided to turn Resident Evil: Revelations 3 into Resident Evil 8. The informant notes that Revelations 3 “was 95% ready and completely playable last year”
During internal tests, Revelations 3 received extremely positive reviews. In the end, Capcom decided to give the creators of Revelations 3 one more year to turn the game into Resident Evil 8. Revelations 3 made a number of fundamental changes, including the plot and characters, to make the project look like the main part of the series.
Dusk Golem said that initially Resident Evil 8 was going to be presented during E3 2020, but due to the cancellation of the exhibition, Capcom’s plans changed and the informant does not know the details.
But Dusk Golem said that in Resident Evil 8 there will be a first-person view, and the project will offer a number of radical innovations in elements related to history and enemies, compared with its predecessors, which can anger fans of the series.
According to rumors, hallucinations, occultism, madness, and distrust of other people will be significant components of the game. Dusk Golem advised that the changes be understood, because “most people who play the almost complete Revelations 3 find the project amazing.”
The release of Resident Evil 8 is scheduled for 2021, the game will appear on the consoles of the current and new generations.
