The series Resident Evil has always been based on interconnected stories, and Resident Evil Village (RE8) left fans with multiple unanswered questions. With rumors circulating about Resident Evil 9 (RE9), many fans are wondering if it will pick up where the village has left off.
As of now, Capcom has not officially confirmed RE9 yet, the climax of Resident Evil 8, which suggests that the upcoming game can follow the lingering plot threads. Let’s break down some clues and figure out how RE9 might be connected to the Village.
How Resident Evil 9 Could Continue RE Village’s Story
Resident Evil 9 - It's Finally Happening!
Resident Evil Village wrapped up Ethan Winters’ tragic journey, though it also sets the stage for future events. Here are the biggest clues that RE9 will continue the story:
Rose Winters’ future
- The “Father's Story” epilogue head starts 16 years earlier, showing Ethan’s daughter, Rose, as a teenager with strange abilities.
- She has seen under a shadowy organization (possibly the BSAA or Chris Redfield's team).
- Her connection with Mold, she could have been the Resident Evil 9 (RE9) new protagonist, or even a target for new villains in the game.
Chris Redfield’s ongoing mission
- Chris has been a major player since Resident Evil 7, and the village left him in a purely complicated position.
- The post-credit scene in the game hints that the BSAA is using bioweapons, which could force Chris to go rogue in Resident Evil 9.
- Chris's story is not yet over, and in the next game, Resident Evil 9, he might explore the fight against corruption within the organizations.
The legacy of the Megamycete
- The giant fungal hive mind was destroyed in the village, but its genetic material would still be out there.
- The villainous group The Connection might return to weaponize its power.
- If Resident Evil 9 revisits the concept, we could see even more deadly mutations.
The BSAA’s downfall
- The ending of Village implies the BSAA has deployed its own bioweapons and has become just as dangerous as the threats they fight, which suggests a moral downfall that Resident Evil 9 could address.
While Resident Evil 9 remains unconfirmed, Resident Evil Village laid ample groundwork for a direct sequel. From Rose Winters’ powers to the BSAA’s corruption, the narrative seeds are firmly planted. If RE9 follows these threads, it could deliver a continuation that satisfies fans while expanding the Resident Evil universe further. Until Capcom makes an official announcement, speculation will continue, but the ties between the two games appear undeniable.
