Rumor: Capcom reveals new Resident Evil game for Wii at Captivate 2010
In 2009, a forum member on Vandal Online claimed to have information about the next Resident Evil title for Wii. When the message was posted, the game supposedly had been in development for more than a year. According to the “insider”, it would be a spin-off, but it would feature a mix of third-person exploration/tension elements and on-rails shooting segments.
Fast-forward a few months later (Thursday) and another member says that the game was at Captivate this past week. Obviously, none of this means anything until we receive a confirmation. There is a small amount of credibility to the rumor, however, as the information comes from the same person who leaked details about Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles. It should also be noted that Capcom recently said that the company has unannounced games in the works for the Wii/DS and that fans should look out for Captivate for announcements. Oh, and there’s apparently a big announcement coming this month. But, still, I repeat what I said earlier – Take this as a huge grain of salt until next week.
