Resident Evil invented the term survival horror \u00ad\u2013 mostly because contending with the original game\u2019s archaic tank controls was a true horror show. Putting up with the series\u2019 campy atmosphere and cringe-worthy voice acting was a true test of a player’s endurance. It\u2019s almost like Capcom was daring us not to play its\u00a0games, but for years players have been rising to that challenge anyway.<\/p>\n

Over the years, Capcom\u2019s horror franchise has evolved in ever-stupider directions. For a while, the series competed with Zack Snyder over who could create a more over-the-top action sequence using a cast of vapid characters. Then the franchise experimented with online multiplayer action, on-rails shooting, first-person horror, and more online multiplayer before Capcom finally gave up and just remade the old hits.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s clear that Capcom is starting to run out of ideas for Resident Evil, so when the studio saw the internet\u2019s enthusiasm for Lady Dimitrescu\u00a0a collective sigh of relief rippled through the team. Here was an idea that hadn\u2019t been exploited completely! Capcom is latching onto your love for the tall vampire like one of the oversized leaches from Resident Evil 0. In Resident Evil IX, Lady D is back to cause some trouble. Better yet, our favorite vampire (sorry Paul Rudd) is bigger than ever, and you won\u2019t believe all the hats she\u2019s going to wear. You can see\u00a0her upcoming exploits in this month\u2019s Game Infarcer.<\/p>\n
