👀 Resident Evil: producer Masato Kumazawa and lead designer Kenji Fukasawa told Risa Unai a Japan-set entry is POSSIBLE, Japan hasn't been used yet and the team, being mostly based there, has considered it.
Timelines are flexible: character ageing only began with RE4, timelines have even been shifted back between RE2 and RE3, and Requiem includes scenes set 8 years before earlier events. It's not the end, core series element...

Producer of Resident Evil Requiem says the backlash to DLSS 5 is actually a GOOD sign: players defended Grace's original look 🤨
Masato Kumazawa explained NVIDIA's demo made the heroine more TOO GLAM and that sparked heated debate, proof the character already matters to fans.
