Capcom confirmed Resident Evil 9 is under development a year ago, but Capcom has never leaked any follow-up news since then.During this period, there were rumors that Lyon will return and will be officially announced later this year.

When asked why the Japanese gaming giant was silent on Resident Evil 9, Resident Evil uncle Dusk Golem gave an unexpected answer: it might be because of optimization problems.

In Dusk Golem's opinion, Capcom has nothing to say about Resident Evil 9, because it may take more time to adjust the technology that drives Resident Evil 9.

This statement is interesting, as Resident Evil 9 is expected to mark the first time the series has entered the open world gaming genre.However, the RE engine seems to have had difficulties dealing with open-world games, such as Monster Hunter: The Wild and Dragon Creed.

Therefore, Capcom seems to be leveraging the experience of these games to further improve the technology.In addition, Dusk Golem believes the team is improving some of the design elements of Resident Evil.This may refer to the open world element, where Capcom is striving to balance the ambition of open world gameplay and the technical limitations of the RE engine.

However, the official expects that the news will be announced in a few months, and the situation should soon become clear.In addition, Capcom is said to be developing a remake of "Code Name Veronica".
