It appears Resident Evil fans will have to wait a bit longer to enter the world of survival horror in cinemas again, as Sony Pictures has announced that Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City has been delayed from its September release to November instead.

According to Variety, the delay of the new Resident Evil reboot film was due to Sony not wanting to clash with another big release — namely Disney and Marvel Studios “Shang Chi and the Legends of the Ten Rings.”

Sony has delayed the release of “Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City.” The apocalyptic horror film is now scheduled for Nov. 24.

“Resident Evil” was previously set for Sept. 3, which is the same day that Disney is currently expected to open the Marvel adventure “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.” It stands to reason that Sony would want to space out “Resident Evil” from a big-budget superhero movie, especially since moviegoing has been slow to return in the U.S.

As a reboot of the Resident Evil film franchise, Welcome to Raccoon City will adapt the storyline from the first two games and will feature fan favorite characters such as Chris Redfield, Jill Valentine, Leon S. Kennedy, and Claire Redfield — being more faithful to the source material than the Paul W.S. Anderson films.

In related Resident Evil news, a new promotional image has been released for Resident Evil Village that shows off a new mystery character.

Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City is now scheduled for release in theaters on November 24.
