Well, it could be anything, when imagining the outcomes. But when it comes to fan theories, they have different takes on this Capcom countdown.

As soon as the developer and publisher posted the tweet, many of the users began to decrypt the hidden meaning of the countdown clock and its appearance.

Looking at the font of the time with the running clock, some of the fans came to the conclusion that Capcom might reveal a Resident Evil 4 remake. Because “the countdown clock is the same font they used in the ps2 release manual,” wrote one user.

On the other hand, several fans speculated that it may be related to an acquisition announcement, indeed, of Capcom by Sony. Well, not many people agreed upon this. However, some were quite certain and anxious at the same time, as they don’t want the Resident Evil and Monster Hunter company to join Sony.

Then there were some who thought that the sci-fi-looking style of the font might be, somehow, related to the upcoming title Pragmata.

What do you think this mysterious Capcom countdown represents? Are you hoping for an acquisition announcement by Sony or a gameplay reveal?
