Before going into the discussion about RE 9's leads and leaks, let's throw back a little about the Resident Evil franchise first!
Talking about horror and shooter genres like this, I don't think there's anything that can increase the prestige that RE has.
When talking about Resident Evil, of course many gamers out there already understand the success and popularity it has had in the history of the gaming industry.
First released in 1996 by Capcom, this game has gone through several changes and evolutions over the last three decades. In this game, players have to survive the attacks of zombies and monsters in a small town called Raccoon City.
Thanks to its interesting story and gameplay, sophisticated graphics for its time, as well as music and sound that support the course of the game, Resident Evil has received so many compliments and sweet reception from various parties.
RE installation
After the success of the first installation, Capcom released many sequels and spin-offs related to this franchise. RE 2 was released in 1998 and follows the story of two new characters who become involved in a zombie outbreak in the same city.
Whereas RE 3: Nemesis was released in 1999 and follows the story of Jill Valentine as she tries to survive from mutants and avoid being persecuted by Nemesis, a monster made by the Umbrella Corporation as the party responsible for all the chaos in the RE universe
In 2005, his most legendary installation, Resident Evil 4, was published. The applied formula is very different from the previous installation. With fast-paced action gameplay and an over-the-shoulder camera, this game follows the story of Leon S. Kennedy: one of the most famous game characters of all time.
Resident Evil 5 was then released in 2009 and follows the story of Chris Redfield as he tries to save the world from the Uroboros virus. And Resident Evil 6 was released in 2012 by following the story of several characters involved in bioterrorism conspiracies around the world.
After several years of hiatus, Capcom released Resident Evil 7: Biohazard in 2017 which took back the survival horror gameplay from a first-person perspective. This game follows the story of Ethan Winters as he searches for his missing wife on a plantation.
And in 2012, Capcom continued the last story of Ethan Winters' story in the 8th sequel. There are many iconic characters that make this game so memorable, one of which is Lady Dimitrescu who is the idol of gamers.

Until now there has been no definite news or teaser from Capcom for the sequel to their famous franchise. Capcom is still enjoying the "fertility" of its two most successful recent releases.
However, leaks from various reliable sources say that it will not be possible for the gaming world to hear more information about the latest sequel until before 2024 ends. Of course, this is intended to provide an opportunity for the emergence of many DLC.
They also believe that, with the end of Ethan Winters' lore along with the RE 8 DLC, it is very likely that RE 9 will return to tell the original characters (Leon and Jill).
