Resident Evil fans losing their minds over surprise RE9 teaser
Each of us will have a list of games we're desperate to see announced.
For me, The Last of Us Part III easily tops that list, but for you horror lovers, I'm imagining it's Resident Evil 9 that you're craving.
Technically, Resident Evil 9 has been announced, although it hasn't received anything in the way of a full reveal.
Instead, Capcom simply confirmed its existence in July of last year.
The latest instalment is believed to star both Leon S. Kennedy and Jill Valentine as playable protagonists which sounds pretty dang exciting, although I urge you to take this information with a pinch of salt for now.
It's been four years since the last mainline instalment in the franchise, Resident Evil Village, landed - that's not including remakes.
Interestingly, four years split Village and the previous mainline instalment, Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, so it stands to reason that Resi 9 could drop anytime now.
Capcom seems to be gearing up for a full reveal, unveiling a classic teaser eagle-eyed fans have recently spotted.
Horror fans will adore the new film.
In previous years, Capcom has teased its next Resi instalment via the use of roman numerals - and that is once again the case when it comes to Resi 9.
A video was recently launched to celebrate Resident Evil 4 Remake reaching 10 million players.
Partway through the video, a peculiar street sign could be seen featuring a number of wooden panels.
The most observant of fans noticed that from the right angle, these panels formed the shape IX, roman numerals for the number nine.エージェントの皆様へ感謝の気持ちを込めて記念映像をご用意いたしました。ぜひ音付きでお楽しみください。Attention all agents,We've prepared a special video to express our gratitude to all of you, which we hope you'll enjoy (with sound ON)!RE4 Dev Team pic.twitter.com/cKaS198UVY

Could a reveal take place during this summer's Summer Games Fest or Gamescom's Opening Night Live?
Will Capcom simply drop a trailer, or perhaps let it air during a State of Play? It's all very possible, and fans are hyped that a new era is almost upon us.
'Definitely about that time. Capcom now is your chance to bring back Jill or Claire or any other forgotten main characters,' wrote Reddit user Vorstar92.
'I hope it will be classic third person view,' added Kiboune.
Of course, as soon as the game is revealed, we'll bring you the latest news.

From the creator of ‘Broadchurch,' a mystery novel on familiar ground
Fans of classic British detective fiction know that no place in the world is more dangerous than a ye olde village. 'Mayhem Parva' was the clever name that British novelist and critic Colin Watson coined in his 1971 book, 'Snobbery with Violence,' to refer to homicidal hamlets like Agatha Christie's St. Mary Mead, where psychopaths stand shoulder to shoulder at the local pub and even the sheep pack shivs beneath their wool.

'Postcard' seaside village in Sussex with links to Disney author and tennis star
With much of both East and West Sussex being on the coast, there are a number of quaint seaside towns and villages. From cosy locations you may not have heard of to larger settlements, you are sure to have visited, there is a range of spots. This one we are spotlighting today has a "perfect postcard setting" and has been named among the most beautiful in Britain. So, here is why you should visit Rottingdean. Rottingdean is a village in Brighton and Hove on the south coast. Boasting a historic centre, it is often the subject of picture postcards. The first recorded mention of the village is 'Rotingeden', in the Domesday Book in the 11th century. Visit Brighton says its "most fascinating period" is that of "highly organised smuggling involving almost the entire village in the late 1700s". It is rumoured that the village had a "maze of brick-lined tunnels that led from the cliffs, under the duck pond, right into the locals' houses". Visit Brighton describes the village today as a "picturesque" spot, boasting a "pretty duck pond and cosy cottages". It adds: "It is a perfect postcard setting with its own nature reserve and some impressive manicured gardens. As if that isn't appealing enough, it also has its own beach, just a five-minute walk from the village." Rottingdean saw its beach recently crowned one of the best in Britain, too. Rottingdean has a number of notable residents. One of these is famous author Rudyard Kipling, most known for The Jungle Book, a classic collection of short stories and poems first published in 1894 These have been made into several films, with the most well-known being the Disney animated classic from 1967, as well as a live-action remake by Disney in 2016. Kipling lived in the village, and you can visit Kipling Gardens, which were once part of The Elms, where Rudyard Kipling lived from 1897 to 1902. Other famous faces with links to the village you might recognise include the former number one tennis player, Fred Perry. He won three consecutive Wimbledon Championships in the 1930s and was the last British player to win a men's singles Grand Slam title until Andy Murray won the 2012 US Open. You will likely recognise the name due to the popular clothing company that exists today, The iconic white cotton sports shirt, made to be similar to René Lacoste's, was launched at Wimbledon in 1952. The Fred Perry tennis shirt was an immediate success and still remains a large brand today. British politician Sir Michael Fabricant was born in the village. Sir Michael Fabricant appeared on Celebrity Big Brother 2025 (Image: ITV) Sir Michael was the MP for Lichfield in Staffordshire, formerly Mid Staffordshire, from 1992 until his defeat in 2024. You may recognise him for appearing on the latest series of Celebrity Big Brother. As Visit Brighton says, Rottingdean is home to "plenty of appealing places to stop for a bite to eat", including "warm and cosy pubs, some tea rooms and a few other small shops and cafés". The Terraces Stage on the seafront boasts a programme of music and theatrical events from June through to September, most of which are free admission.

The village is also home to the Grange Museum and Art Gallery, which overlooks the pond and village green. The early Georgian building currently houses a library and tea garden too.
