You're not fooling me Capcom producers :deniro:

Marketing tactic. Apparently the game started as Revelations 3. They figure they can get more interest ($$$$$) if people think it’s VIII without actually calling it that. Konami did the same thing with Peace Walker and said they had to drop the 5 from Peace Walker for reasons after it was already done and even had advertisements made, so people believed it was mgs5, only for konami to announce a mgs5 after that games release.

It kind of makes sense. They probably don't think the game is adding enough to the formula to really be considered a numbered sequel, so they're trying to adjust people's expectations.

lmfao they shouldve done that starting with 4 then I'd probably still give a damn about RE if the 4th and onwards were actually well made games

Nah each game since then has had its own unique hook 

 

5 = a co op focused campaign 

 

6 = A new control scheme and 3 separate campaigns with returning characters 

 

7 = First person view and a return to slower paced exploration based gameplay  

 

 

8 just seems to be more of 7, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing.

Lmao did they not mean to name it Village for the sole purpose to use VIII?
