I want more gameplay, but the vibes were on point.
For just a second i had hope for a new Def Jam Game, silly me ![]()
I want another Wu-Tang sigil shaped controller.
The only other thing I want from this Summer Games Fest is Intergalactic news/gameplay, but if this is the best we get, I still will be happy I watched because I got to see the Hitman news take center stage and get a really great reception.
Stranger Than Heaven does look totally up my alley. Iām forever going to call it Sleeping Dogs 2 in my brain.
Resident Evil Nine.
FUCK YES
Good call!
Resident Evil: Re9uim
February 27, 2026

I just recognised the name Ashcroft. I donāt even play Resident Evil but it clicked for some reason.
The Family from Code Veronica/ Umbrella Founders are called Ashford tho
Itās looks very good and crazy itās out early next year. Iāve always loved the older Resi games but havenāt played anything since RE7.
Nom nom nom, I eat my words.
But thereās a Tim Schafer Day of the Devs ad after the showcase, so thatās just as good.
They are? Well then fuck me I just got lucky I guess.
Wiki tells me Alyssa Ashcroft is from Outbreak and most recently had a cameo in RE7.
Okay, FBI technical analyst, Grace Ashcroft, sent to investigate The Remwood Hotel. The place where her mother was killed 8 years ago. Game takes place in the aftermath of the Raccoon City destruction. Most likely 30 years later.
Bit disappointed to not see any familiar faces but Iām in as long as itās spooky and has item management lol.
Enough with the soulslike!

Alyssa was mentioned in RE7, since she wrote articles found in a newspaper at the Baker House. Damn, it sucks if she really died but itās cool we will get a new protagonist and one related to a character from Outbreak!
Also about Resident Evil 9: Requiem, I like that they might grab a loose plot point from Outbreak. After each ending, thereās this cutscene that shows Umbrella or remnants of it stablishing an investigation outpost at the ruins of Raccoon City. If this gets connected to Requiem, Iām gonna be very happy!
Itās so cool. Iāve never played Outbreak so I have to deep dive in the lore.
Iām getting Fincher Seven vibes from the trailer. The title card, murders, investigations, rain, flashbacks. It looks too cool. Wonder if Leon will show up. Heāll be in his 50s by then? I just want to know more! Is it gonna be third person or first person perspective. I need gameplay so bad.
