If you've managed to snatch up all of those Resident Evil Village trophies, then we have some exciting information to share — if it's true, that is. A new Resident Evil 9 leak from leaker Dusk Golem points to Capcom releasing the next installment in this horror series sometime in 2025. Here's hoping it's worthy of our best PS5 games list.

Capcom to reveal a major IP that will release in 2024, allegedly

Originally posted on The Snitchers Discord before being shared to Reddit, reliable leaker Dusk Golem has claimed to know every big Resident Evil title slated to launch up until 2029. Not only this, Dusk Golem claims that we will be receiving an announcement for a big Capcom IP at the end of this year for a suspected Fall 2024 release. Dusk Golem also goes on to state that Resident Evil 9 will be announced next year, with a release window of 2025.
We advise you to take the following quotes with a pinch of salt. When asked if we should expect RE9 next year (2024), Dusk Golem responded with: "2025, I'll say that much, though probably will be announced next year. I won't answer any further RE stuff, but I'll throw that bone out there."

Dusk Golem further divulged information on Capcom, stating: "There's a big Capcom game being announced at the end of this year that's releasing Fall 2024, and likely RE9 will be announced next year and release 2025.

"Outside of maybe some smaller stuff, I think I might know every big Resident Evil game releasing up to the year 2029 now. I'll tease."
As of now, none of this information can be proven correct and we will simply have to wait for these big announcements to come from Capcom. With that all in mind, rumors are beginning to stir of a possible PlayStation Showcase for August 2023, so maybe some Capcom announcements will be made there if it turns out to be true.

What do you make of this Resident Evil 9 leak? Do you think what Dusk Golem has said here holds any weight? Curious to see what Capcom may announce at the end of the year? Should we look at updating our best PlayStation horror games list in preparation? Let us know all your thoughts in the comments below!
