Capcom is teasing something mysterious for this weekend

Resident Evil Village

Experience survival horror like never before in the 8th major installment in the Resident Evil franchise - Resident Evil Village. With detailed graphics, intense first-person action and masterful storytelling, the terror has never felt more realistic.

A mysterious Capcom countdown website has launched, which seems to be teasing some sort of announcement for this weekend, February 20/21. Fans are already speculating everything from Resident Evil Village DLC to Street Fighter 6 - and there's a little evidence both ways.

Resident Evil Village is one of the best horror games around and Capcom has previously promised that DLC is in the works for one of 2021's best games - and some of it will be free, apparently. Other than the grey and white colour scheme and sharp font evoking Resident Evil, the bottom of the countdown page shows a snowy ground texture similar to the start of Village.

It's also possible that this timer is for the reveal of Street Fighter 6 or something Street Fighter-related, as the timer ends this weekend - exactly when Street Fighter V Pro Tour 2022 is due to take place. Capcom confirmed in November that Luke would be Street Fighter V's final DLC character, so now he's out the path is clear for a Street Fighter 6 announcement.
