He also added that the major entry in the series is now targeting a 2029 release.

Official status and credibility

At the time of writing, Capcom has not made any official announcements regarding Resident Evil 10's development or release date. As a result, all of the information provided above must be taken with a pinch of salt. Nevertheless, Dusk Golem has proven himself to be a reliable source for Resident Evil information.

Given the franchise's track record of delays, 2029 should be viewed as a target rather than a guarantee.
