At Capcom Next Summer 2024 today, in addition to Capcom's upcoming "Gi: Path of the Goddess" and "Zombie Siege Deluxe Remastered", the best news is that the new "Resident Evil" has been finalized, and it will be led by "Resident Evil 7" director Koshi Nakanishi. At the same time, Akishi Nakanishi once again revealed the reason for the birth of the "scary" "Resident Evil 7".
Akishi Nakanishi revealed that before "Resident Evil 7", the "Resident Evil" series had a period of confusion. Due to the excessive focus on action in "Resident Evil 5" and "Resident Evil 6", it has received a lot of criticism from fans of the series. Akishi Nakanishi said that "Resident Evil" cannot do without "horror elements", so "Resident Evil 7" returned to the "original intention" to bring players more horror atmosphere, and it is precisely because of this that the first-person perspective is adopted.
The release of the new work of "Resident Evil" is actually not unexpected, after all, it has been 3 years since the release of "Resident Evil: Village". The latest installment in the main series is Resident Evil 4 Remake a year ago. Now that the new work of "Resident Evil" will continue to be directed by Akishi Nakanishi, I wonder if the new work will continue the main line of the Winters family from the beginning of the 7th generation (after all, who doesn't want to watch Rosemary?). ）。 Compared with the balance of the 8th generation, will the new work return to the 7th generation to focus on the horror atmosphere?
