This page gathers every Resident Evil announcement, leak and rumor in one place and sorts it by how far you should trust it. Games, films, series, merchandise: if someone has made a checkable claim about Capcom’s franchise, it lands on the board below.
Each entry carries a label and a grade. The label shows where a claim stands right now. Confirmed means an official source has said it. Rumor means it is unverified. Debunked means it has been contradicted or proven wrong. The grade rates the source: A is official, B is a reporter with a proven record, C is a community find or datamine, and D is an anonymous poster or someone with a mixed history of hits and misses.
Entries get updated in place rather than reposted, so a D-grade whisper can become a confirmed fact without losing its paper trail. The dated timeline beneath logs every report as it appeared.
We report about leaks. We never host, embed or link to leaked footage, builds or files, and we don’t guess at who an anonymous leaker is.
