Capcom may be getting ready to announce a new game set in the Resident Evil universe. NeoGAF user ekim spotted a trademark the company registered yesterday for what appears to be a video game or gaming related something called Umbrella Corps. This could mean just about anything, though my pessimistic side is already bracing for a reveal of what I’m going to assume is a free-to-play game. I refuse to let them break my heart again. Not again.
Fans will recognize Umbrella as the uber-evil corporation and reliable source of bad things until their downfall in Resident Evil 4. They’ve never completely disappeared, but it’s safe to assume they won’t be nuking any more cities named after hostile woodland critters anytime soon.
Free-to-play may be too negative of an assumption. This could always be a browser MMO.
