None of this has been confirmed so I highly recommend you take it with the appropriate amount of salt, but a Resident Evil 7 reveal may be coming our way much sooner than expected. In addition to confirming its existence (surprise!), a few recent tweets from Japanese analyst Serkan Toto might’ve also gifted us with some juicy deets on the upcoming game.
The tweets mention Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain designer Jordan Amaro’s involvement — Amaro also worked on P.T. — while reiterating the familiar promise that it will return the series to its roots in survival horror. I’m choosing to be cautiously optimistic about that.
Honestly, if I could choose just one of the things Toto mentions to come true, it’d be the part that says Capcom is using Resident Evil 7 to clear the canvas of the mess left by its predecessors so the main series can have a “clean slate” to build from.
Apparently, the plan is to formally announce it at E3 next month (June 14-16), so stay tuned!
2) They will show it at E3. The RE7 team hired Jordan Amaro, a designer who previously worked on MGS V and P. T. at Kojima Productions. /end

Perhaps that Resident Evil Week was a bit premature?
