Just like the Resident Evil 7 demo itself, there may be more to Capcom's finger mystery teaser than we first realized. The image seemed to confirm speculation that players had discovered everything in the demo and that Capcom would add more later on. But it has a few more details to yield, as spotted by Reddit user theanonymousegamer.

#RE7 just emailed RE Ambassadors and confirmed that #dummyfinger does nothing for now but there will be more to come pic.twitter.com/xKM7s6UeHAJuly 1, 2016

The slip of paper that reads "The path for now is closed, but patience…" is the most obvious part of the image. A creepy finger points to the slip, but more importantly, the dates it covers on the calendar correspond to Tokyo Game Show 2016: September 15 through 18. Thus, the next layer of the RE7 mystery may be revealed at TGS. Better start watching for mysterious updates to begin downloading around then.

The image also shows a key in the blurry foreground, which goes along with the idea that the dummy finger will open the way... once Capcom patches it in, anyway. Last but not least, there's a spot of blood on September 28. Could be we'll see even more then - that's the same date as the beginning of Resident Evil 3, after all.

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and was formerly a staff writer at GamesRadar+.
