While there’s no doubt that Resident Evil 9 is being developed at Capcom, rumors about have circulated recently alongside other Resident Evil remakes. Well, if this retailer listing is the real deal, then RE9’s subtitle and product description just surfaced ahead of any official announcement.

Online retailer Play-Asia has a page up for Resident Evil 9: Revenant Shadows, alongside pages for the rumored Resident Evil: Code Veronica and Resident Evil Zero remakes. The preliminiary cover art shows what appears two characters (with the character up front looking a lot like Leon Kennedy) alongside the Resident Evil IX title.

Now before anyone takes the info above as real, do note that Capcom has not announced anyting, and based from what we know, Play-Asia has been known to put up pre-order pages for games the retailer thinks will be available.

The fact that there is an item description and subtitle for Resident Evil 9 is what makes us think that there is a chance this could be legit. The latest from credible leaker DuskGolem mentions that Code Veronica and RE: Zero remakes are being developed, with Resident Evil 9 set for release in 2025/2026.

Could Resident Evil 9 be one of the surprise announcements at Sony’s State of Play later? As a Resident Evil fan, I am hoping it is, though I’m doubtful.

We’ve reached out to Capcom to ask for clarification on this and will update the article if we hear anything back.
