Well-known Resident Evil leaker Dusk Golem (AestheticGamer) has denied the Chris Redfield rumor that he would appear in the next game.
He says neither Chris nor Ada is in the game in any meaningful way, and the claim linked to him is false. Fans should be careful about trusting this information.
Resident Evil Requiem – A Short Summary
- Dusk Golem says the Chris/Ada return rumour isn’t from him.
- He doesn’t think either character is in the game in any important way, though a late-game reveal or file references might happen.
- This isn’t official from Capcom—just leak talk and roster speculation.
What Dusk Golem Actually Said
According to a Dusk Golem statement, he never said Chris or Ada are returning and called the circulating claim a “misc fake leak.”
From what he’s heard, neither character has a meaningful role in the game. This matters because it helps stop misinformation from spreading as the official marketing ramp-up approaches.
Why Fans Expected These Names In The First Place
Fans had reasons to expect Chris and Ada in the game. A few key drivers of this speculation are:
- Leon’s presence often leads the community to assume Ada is back.
- Chris is often expected as a late-game reveal or cameo.
- Vague teaser images, marketing hints, or insider chatter can amplify fan wishlists.
These patterns help explain why rumours spread so easily, even without official confirmation.
How to Read This
Remember, even though it comes from a known leaker, this info is secondhand. Capcom could still add cameos or change plans – things can shift late in the Capcom PR cycle. Don’t let fandom expectations make you assume Chris or Ada will play major roles.
Here’s a clear look at what’s officially confirmed versus what’s still speculation.
Officially confirmed by Capcom:
- Only information shown in public trailers or statements
- No confirmation of new or returning characters beyond what’s revealed
Unverified Information:
- Chris or Ada appearing in the game
- A secret third protagonist
- Post-launch DLC character packs
What This Could Mean For The Story Focus
If Chris or Ada really aren’t central, it could mean Capcom is keeping the story focused on the currently marketed leads and the main mystery, rather than spreading it across a larger legacy cast for fanservice.
