Resident Evil Requiem's producer has commented on online rumors surrounding the game, saying that people set themselves up for disappointment.
Resident Evil is a series that feels like it can't go one week without some new rumor coming out about it. And while some of these have turned out true in the past (like with the Resident Evil 4 remake and a ton of details about Village), equally there's been a lot that just never came to pass. I'm sure there's a few of us that still think that Code Veronica remake or Revelations 3 will be revealed any day now.

"Sometimes I talk to people and they act as if various speculation and rumors are just already a confirmed thing," Kumazawa says. "I would like everyone to remember, let's calm down a bit – what we've shown you so far is everything we can say."
He adds: "People get frustrated with us, because even though we didn’t promise things, the rumors and theories were such that they were widely believed." Sadly, this isn't something just for Resident Evil. Even as far back as 10 years ago I remember people speculating that Metal Gear Solid 5 would end with a recreation of the original Metal Gear with David Hayter returning as Solid Snake. And while that was an unrealistic expectation, it led to disappointment when that wasn't the case upon release.
