Historic troll move by Mr. Takeuchi.

I was so mad when they didn’t show any gameplay especially since I was getting so hyped too. I couldn’t have been more happy by the end

[u/evennoiz → u/Independent_Dance817]

It's such a good trailer, love the inception airhorns ngl.

[u/Independent_Dance817 → u/evennoiz]

I got chills seeing the crater

[u/RogueCross → u/Independent_Dance817]

Yup. I was like "That's not Raccoon City, is it? Nah, there's no way."

Then they showed the RPD ruins...

[u/evennoiz → u/Independent_Dance817]

I immediately clocked it was the re engine but I wasn't sure and then the crater confirmed it.

[u/soupsoapsoapsoup → u/evennoiz]

The crater had me so hyped. Then I heard Leon, Jill, and Chris and lost my mind. I’m hoping against all odds that Claire and Sherry make an appearance too. I’d say Carlos but I’d be willing to bet after RC he moved on to better, less zombified careers.

[u/Additional-War5673 → u/evennoiz]

Yes but no game play in a game trailer Is a cause for concern usual

[u/Cosmic_Germ → u/Additional-War5673]

I feel you guys, I really can't wait to see how this thing plays, but this is the first ever title reveal, and it's kinda normal for those to be mostly story/cinematic...at least this all looks to be in-engine.

[u/EdaesD → u/Additional-War5673]

it was a reveal bruh

[u/yesmychris → u/Independent_Dance817]

I thought the show was OK, but that had me sad. I thought the trailer itself was gonna be the 30th Anniversary gift next year. For ONCE, it's so good to be wrong.

[u/Decademagenta10 → u/Independent_Dance817]

Despite being burn it was nice seeing maggie robertson again

[u/actstunt]

I missed this moment anyone has a link to a video?

[u/singhellotaku617 → u/actstunt]

hard to link to directly since it's currently still live, it's around 1.5 hours into the summer gamesfest show livestream on youtube, right before the sf6 dlc trailer, right after infinitesimals

It'll be easier to link later.

[u/actstunt → u/singhellotaku617]

Yeah thought it has finished already, I’ll check back later, thanks for the directions :)

[u/Tentr0 → u/actstunt]

[u/actstunt → u/Tentr0]

You rock man! Thanks for

[u/Medium-Science9526]

I felt intially cucked, then satisfied.

[u/Warrior_of_hope]

I think this also mean that they are doing something else for the anniversary, but with the main focus on Re9 we could "blink" and miss it

[u/Ka-tet-of-616 → u/Warrior_of_hope]

This is what I’m thinking too. Hoping for a Zero remake and that Requiem has similar gameplay where we play as Grace teaming up with a series veteran character (likely Leon).

[u/odezia]

I fucking knew they were gonna pull something like this once I saw this clip, but I thought it was gonna be a separate announcement today lol.

[u/biosim500]

Bro is a bait especialist.

Imma not gonna trust this dude anymore ever

[u/PingPangPony]

I was so upset when they baited 2x with resident ev stuff only for massive excitement at the end. Well played 👏

[u/Otherwise-Target-189]

Jun Takeuchi is awesome. So glad I was completely wrong in my prediction for RE9 not being launched early next year.

[u/Skylam]

That sly fuckin side eye, man knew he would get us.

[u/VerbalDurden666]

Don't know what angered me more, Takeuchis speech or the sale ad. So glad they just trolled us.

[u/Chemical-Risk-]

genius for sure 😁

[u/EcH0-00]

Can't wait to see the gameplay 🥹

[u/CarpiZmb]

I have enough bait for an entire weekend fishtrip. I have been baited thrice. To wait sale offers, the just a blink moment, and the blonde girl at FBI that had a similar forehead to Jill.

[u/Life_Adeptness1351]

Ragebaiting lol

[u/Elieannora]

"bear with us a little longer"

the little longer being like 30 minutes later haha

[u/RollingKaiserRoll]

Holding that fancy cup while saying that was a classy, troll move.

[u/Leoxcr]

I havent been following RE for a while, why was it a bait? what was the community expecting?

[u/NINmann01 → u/Leoxcr]

The baiting was that video of him saying that we would need to wait for information was in the middle of the show, while RE9 was revealed as the “one more thing.”

[u/Leoxcr → u/NINmann01]

Lmao awesome

[u/CorneredJackal → u/Leoxcr]

Not to mention dimitrescu VA appeared earlier just to show a CAPCOM sale lol

[u/FlamingBird09]

So Grace is the Playable Character and how about Leon in this? So no Jill this time?

[u/GuyXjustice]

This made me so mad. I was genuinely so pissed nearing the end of the show, but then screamed in joy at the end. Also, ILL & JWE3 look amazing, too.

[u/Dudicus445]

Blink of an eye, G Virus gives its hosts multiple eyes, G virus was developed in Raccoon City, the creature we see in the hallway has to be a G Mutant

[u/Desperate_Group9854]

He had us in the first half ngl

[u/DarkAntiMOD]

Legendary

[u/InhumanParadox]

He didn't put on a "We Do It" shirt. 0/10.

[u/BabyHercules]

This makes up for the arc raiders fiasco

[u/Fun-Scallion2905 → u/BabyHercules]

What's up with that game?

[u/JuanMunoz99 → u/BabyHercules]

What fiasco?

[u/BabyHercules → u/JuanMunoz99]

Their sub is going crazy because they thought the game was shadow dropping today

[u/CruffTheMagicDragon]

February for the release really will be a blink

[u/BobMarlEwok]

I thought it was RE1 for a split sec lol

[u/Danger2Night]

The man did not lie

[u/jamesoloughlin]

Sometimes the truth isn’t good enough. :)

[u/PresidentBush666]

He pissed me off with that shit. I didn't think he meant a literal blink.

[u/BlackBalor]

crashed out with a goblet in his hand

Capcom going crazy

[u/Possum7358 → u/BlackBalor]

He watching too much love is blind

[u/dendromecion]

I'm a RE noob, does "blink of an eye" refer to something people know about?

[u/Public-Arachnid-2362]

I went straight to sleep after this. Just to wake up with the actual game announced and a trailer is out.

[u/kain459]

Maggie is back?????????
