Resident Evil’s Long-Standing Cat and Mouse Relationship Should Continue in RE9

The delicate blend of tension with a sprinkle of blood-pumping excitement has been the staple in the survival horror genre. From the early days of Leon S. Kennedy to the relatively recent Ethan Winters’ bone-chilling encounters with Jack Baker and Lady Dimitrescu, Resident Evil has thrived by bringing players face-to-face with gruesome creatures and zombies. Even in the midst of fear and suspense, there’s potential for romantic undertones, and the iconic relationship between Leon and Ada contrasts the lurking dangers in the franchise’s earlier installments. With speculation surrounding Resident Evil 9‘s development, enthusiasts hope to see this longstanding cat-and-mouse relationship continue in the series’ next edition.
