The Game Awards 2020 is set to take place later tonight, revealing the game that will be given the coveted Game of the Year honor. Not only will plenty of awards be doled out this evening, but The Game Awards 2020 will also have plenty of new game announcements and world premiere trailers as well, with Capcom’s Resident Evil 8 expected to have a new trailer at the show.
As pointed out by AestheticGamer, who is known for their accurate Resident Evil leaks, Capcom has typically aligned game sales with announcements. Right now, Resident Evil 7 is available at a discount through Steam’s Game Awards Sale, but not Resident Evil 2 or 3. This seems to suggest that an announcement of some kind involving Resident Evil 8 is in store for The Game Awards 2020, likely a new trailer.
Then again, this could just be because Resident Evil 8 is nominated for an award at The Game Awards 2020. While Resident Evil 8 isn’t eligible for most of the awards (with it having yet to release and all), the game has been nominated for the Most Anticipated award alongside the likes of Elden Ring, the God of War sequel, Halo Infinite, Horizon Forbidden West, and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2.
If Resident Evil 8 is featured at The Game Awards beyond it being nominated for an award, it will be interesting to see if it gets a trailer or something more. Rumors have been swirling that a playable Resident Evil 8 demo is in the works, which would be possible now that the PS5 and Xbox Series X consoles are available. Capcom has a long history of releasing demos for Resident Evil games prior to their launch, with these demos often announced at big gaming events like this, so maybe fans will get lucky.
Even if The Game Awards 2020 only has a new Resident Evil 8 trailer in store, though, that will likely be enough for many fans. The Resident Evil 8 trailers that have been shown so far have been fairly vague, leaving fans with many more questions than answers. One of the biggest mysteries surrounds Chris Redfield, with the Resident Evil 8 trailers and promotional material suggesting that there may be something sinister going on with the fan favorite character.
In fact, some promotional artwork has hinted that Chris Redfield is a werewolf in Resident Evil 8, but that could be misdirection. Maybe fans will get some clarification later tonight if a new Resident Evil 8 trailer is released during The Game Awards 2020 as expected.
Resident Evil 8 is in development for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X.
