Capcom Thanks ‘Daymare 1998’ Devs in ‘Resident Evil 2’ Credits

Okay, so you’ve spent your weekend hunkered down and playing the crap out of Resident Evil 2 like everyone else, right? And you’ve probably finished the game already. Well, if you have, you’ve probably glanced through the game’s credits and come across this little nugget:

Yep, that’s right. Capcom gave special thanks to one Invader Studios. The same Invader Studios that was working on a fan remake by the name of Resident Evil 2 Reborn that was cancelled following Capcom’s announcement of an official remake, but was subsequently changed into the upcoming Daymare 1998 (which recently snagged a publisher).

A totally unexpected but very gracious gesture by Capcom, for sure. And certainly better than what some companies have done in the past in regards to fans doing remakes/tributes to beloved games and franchises.

Daymare 1998 is set for release later this year for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC.

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.

Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere can be seen trapped inside.

You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…

The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
