Capcom explora conceptos de mundo abierto y online para Resident Evil: Requiem antes de volver a sus raíces de terror

Autor : Eric Actualizar : Sep 09,2025

Capcom reveló que inicialmente exploró la posibilidad de hacer Resident Evil: Requiem un juego de mundo abierto con funciones online antes de cambiar de rumbo.

En un video honesto del diario de desarrollo, el director de Requiem, Koshi Nakanishi, compartió vislumbres de esta versión descartada, mostrando a múltiples protagonistas en intensos tiroteos llenos de acción.

Finalmente, Capcom abandonó estas ideas para volver a la esencia principal de terror de la saga Resident Evil, explicaron sus desarrolladores. Previsto para lanzarse el próximo año, Requiem será una experiencia para un solo jugador y sin conexión.

"Hemos incluido mucho en este título. Desde el principio, exploramos varios sistemas", compartió el productor Masachika Kawata.

"Puede que hayan escuchado algunos rumores", añadió Nakanishi. "Probamos conceptos como un Resident Evil online o un formato de mundo abierto durante un tiempo.

Pero al final, esas ideas no encajaban con lo que los fans esperaban. Así que volvimos a lo básico, creando lo que se convirtió en Resident Evil: Requiem".

A continuación se puede ver un breve fragmento de la versión online cancelada de Requiem:

El director de arte Tomonori Takano habló sobre el entorno de Requiem, explicando que Capcom eligió ambientes urbanos para diferenciarlo de entregas recientes.

A diferencia de Resident Evil 7, Resident Evil Village y el remake de Resident Evil 4, que transcurren en entornos rurales, Requiem volverá a Raccoon City.

"Los títulos anteriores se centraron mucho en escenarios naturales y rurales", dijo Takano. "Esta vez nos enfocamos en entornos urbanos, con escenarios dramáticos modernos, incluyendo Raccoon City".

Aunque el enfoque para un jugador y el escenario de Requiem están confirmados, Capcom mantiene hermetismo sobre si el querido Leon S. Kennedy será jugable junto al protagonista anunciado, la agente del FBI Grace Ashcroft.

Durante la transmisión de Capcom Spotlight 2025, Nakanishi insinuó que Leon podría no encajar en el tono de terror del juego, pero no descartó por completo su aparición. Los fans especulan que Capcom está guardando revelaciones de las secuencias más orientadas a la acción de Requiem, donde Leon podría brillar.

Shadow of the Monkey King: PS5 Patch Delivers Major Performance Boost, But 93GB Download Warning Sends Players Scrambling The highly anticipated Shadow of the Monkey King — officially titled Wukong — has just dropped a major performance patch for PlayStation 5, promising smoother frame rates, enhanced ray-tracing, and improved load times. However, fans are reacting with a mix of excitement and frustration after discovering the patch’s staggering 93GB download size. What’s New in the Patch? According to the official patch notes released by Game Science, the update brings several key improvements: Stable 60fps at 4K Resolution: The game now maintains a consistent 60 frames per second in most gameplay scenarios, a significant upgrade from the variable performance in the initial launch. Ray-Traced Lighting & Reflections: Enhanced visual fidelity with more realistic lighting and environmental reflections, especially in the game’s lush, mythological landscapes. Faster Load Times: Level transitions and open-world travel have been optimized, reducing loading times by up to 40%. Bug Fixes & Stability: Numerous crash fixes and AI behavior adjustments have been implemented based on player feedback. The team has also added a new "Performance Mode" that prioritizes frame rate over resolution, ideal for players who value smooth gameplay over ultra-high graphics. The 93GB Download: A Double-Edged Sword While the improvements are undeniable, the 93GB patch has sparked controversy. For context, the base game was already around 80GB — meaning the patch adds nearly 120% more data. Players on limited storage devices, particularly those with older PS5 models (1TB or 2TB), are alarmed. Many have reported that the patch not only eats up valuable space but may force them to delete other games to make room. Sony has since confirmed that the patch is required to access certain new features, including the expanded "Spirit Realm" side quests and new difficulty modes. Community Reaction “My PS5 only has 2TB, and I’ve already got 100+ games. I don’t even have the storage to test the patch!” – @GamerFromShangriLa “The visuals are gorgeous, but 93GB? That’s more than some whole console games.” – @PixelPanda99 “I’ll take the performance gains… but maybe next time, send a patch that doesn’t require a hard drive upgrade.” – @WukongWarrior Some players are turning to external SSDs, while others are demanding better compression or incremental updates in future patches. What’s Next? Game Science has acknowledged the backlash and said they’re exploring ways to optimize future updates with delta patches. They’ve also hinted at a potential "lightweight" version of the game for lower-end systems. For now, if you’re a fan of Wukong, the patch is worth the download — just make sure you’ve got the space, patience, and a good internet connection. Pro Tip: Use a high-speed external SSD and schedule the download overnight to avoid disrupting gameplay. Shadow of the Monkey King continues to impress with its unique blend of Chinese mythology, fluid combat, and breathtaking art direction. Just don’t forget to double-check your storage before hitting "download." 🐒💥 Lectura
