Jill Valentine Fans May Be Disappointed by Resident Evil 9 Leaks
The anticipation for Resident Evil 9 is palpable, but it looks like some of the rumors surrounding the next installment might be a bit too good to be true. Popular leaker Dusk Golem has addressed the whispers that have been circulating among fans, and unfortunately, it seems that Jill Valentine won’t be playing a significant role in the next game.
For years, fans of the Resident Evil series have been hoping for the return of the iconic Jill Valentine, the first protagonist of the franchise who has made several memorable appearances throughout the games. The excitement around the possibility of her comeback has led to speculation that she might take center stage in Resident Evil 9. But according to Dusk Golem, it’s time to temper those expectations.
While some fans are still holding out hope for Jill’s major return, others feel that it might be time to pass the torch to a new character. The franchise has already introduced a wide variety of heroes and antiheroes over the years, and maybe it’s time for Resident Evil to evolve with a fresh face. Dusk Golem confirmed that Jill won’t have a major role in the upcoming game, despite the fervent rumors suggesting otherwise.
For those wondering if Jill will make a cameo or at least have some involvement, the leaker confirmed she won’t be completely absent—but don’t expect her to be a major player. It seems Capcom has other plans for Resident Evil 9, with new characters likely taking the spotlight.
Another point of intrigue for fans is the rumored Resident Evil Zero remake. According to Dusk Golem, Resident Evil Zero is next in line for a remake, a bit of exciting news for fans of the earlier entries in the series. This could be a great way for the franchise to return to its roots, even if it means taking a break from Jill Valentine.
It seems that Capcom is keeping its cards close to the chest for now, and fans will have to wait a bit longer before more details about Resident Evil 9 are revealed. Dusk Golem speculates that the game might be announced after summer 2025, with further updates potentially coming during the Summer Game Fest event.
Whether you’re disappointed by Jill’s reduced role or relieved to see the franchise evolve, one thing is for sure—Resident Evil 9 is going to shake things up, and it will likely leave fans talking for years to come.
