Having tried that mode myself, I ended up convinced that the reason it took that many bullets, was because the monkeys bones had been T-virus enhanced and harder to break, and being skin and bones, they where just hairy fleas with thumbs at this point.

To be fair any zombie like creature should be a bullet sponge. They shouldn't feel pain and don't need like 90% of their organs anymore.

I don't think I can beat the giant bat, I don't have enough shotgun ammo or healing items.

Any hints of where it may be set?

It seems to be post nuke Racoon C Ity with flashbacks to the lead up to 2 and 3.

Thank you IGN for the reupload:

Oh damn, return to Raccoon City!

They were trolling pretty hard with that "we totally will announce something soon" segment.

So I’m hearing that apparently Leon is going to be a major character in this but I’m not sure if that’s actually true

[up] there were rumors of Leon and even Jill being in resident evil 9 as playable characters but I'm not sure about that either.

timeline wise: assuming it's not another Time Skip set in 2030s like in the Distant Finale of Resident Evil village as well as the Shadows of Rose, im thinking 2026 and Alyssa died in 2018 (according to the newspaper in Resident Evil 7 with her name on it, she was still alive in 2016. Resident Evil 7 is set 2017)

Capcom won this year it seems. Resident Evil Outbreak canonicity? In this timeline?

Holy mother of god.

[up] I thought acknowledging Ingrid in Street Fighter 6 season 3 was crazy

So the Outbreak connection was wild. It was even set up in 7

It was certainly unexpected.

Though considering we did get Outbreak references in 7, it seems Capcom was building up to it.

I suppose the only thing crazier than Outbreak being acknowledged is Ingrid appearing in a canon Street Fighter game......oh wait!

RE really can't stay away from Raccoon City. At least this time it's after the outbreak.

I mean, Racoon City is a pretty huge in-universe thing. It's the first mass outbreak in the franchise, that 3 main characters were caught up in, and it lead to the destruction of Umbrella and an entire damned city being nuked into submission on American Soil.

Plus, the fact that there are at least 3 stories about it (2, 3, and Outbreak) shows that there was probably a lot going on during that time.

I believe this is the first time we're not dealing with a flashback, but canonically moving the timeline forward and showing what the smoking crater that was once Umbrella's most important city is doing right now.

I want to know, what the hell is even going on there, considering that there can't be much virus material left in that area.

they sort of acknowledged Outbreak being Canon since Alyssa Ashcroft was mentioned in Resident Evil 7.
