[QUOTE="Admin, post: 70474, member: 1"] [IMG]https://assets-prd.ignimgs.com/2026/03/12/hc7mqjoaoaa-yzj-1773311922650.jpg[/IMG] A secret website address hidden within [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/resident-evil-requiem']Resident Evil Requiem[/URL] looks to have been snatched up first by a fan of Valve founder Gabe Newell. Peer closely into the screens of Leon's Bioterrorism Security Assessment Alliance computers and you'll see the following URL listed amid a string of code: NEWDAWN-capcom.com. But rather than an official website owned by Resident Evil's publisher, the website now redirects to a holding page owned by Gabe Follower, a content creator and fan of Valve. According to domain ownership data seen by IGN, the website address was only claimed and registered this week, on March 9. Ownership has been secured for one year, meaning that any plans Capcom had for the site may need to wait, or be changed. Interestingly, March 9 is the same date that the website address was spotted and shared on social media by [URL='https://x.com/RacconSurvivor/status/2030814099425382589']RacconSurvivor[/URL], a fan who cleverly used a weapon scope to peer closer at the BSAA computer screen and sift through its gibberish code. Did Gabe Follower see this tweet and promptly snap up the domain? We've asked what happened here — and contacted Capcom to see what its own plans are now. Of course, the existence of a website address with "Capcom" in the name appears to be a deliberate tease within Requiem for something promotional (or, alternatively, Capcom is now canon within the Resident Evil universe). Was the publisher planning to use it [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/resident-evil-requiem-story-expansion-and-additional-mini-game-in-development-director-confirms']for its upcoming Resident Evil Requiem[/URL][URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/resident-evil-requiem-story-expansion-and-additional-mini-game-in-development-director-confirms'] DLC[/URL]? We may now never know. Capcom could now choose to edit the website address in-game, or ultimately pretend the whole thing never existed.
