Before anyone jumps for joy: No, there hasn't been an official announcement, nor an unofficial leak, sorry. This is just a place for general discussion and speculation about a possible continuation of the Revelations series, inspired by this thread.
Revelations 1 was released in early 2012 on the 3DS, and back then Capcom most likely had no idea how successful it was going to be. Not without faults, but still praised for backing away from the more action-heavy direction of other titles towards a more horror-focused approach, lending the spotlight to the women of the series after the numbered titles had become rather male-dominated since RE4, and introducing Raid Mode, the game has since been ported to modern platforms and even spawned a sequel three years later… which was three years ago, so it's about time for a new one, isn't it?
Personally, I can see the Revelations series moving in one of the following three directions from now on:
1. The third game will star either Jill or Claire again and continue her story.
2. It will star both Jill and Claire and combine their stories (because so far, the Revelations games are rather loosely connected by their title only).
3. It will star a third recurring female character (possibly Ada, Sherry, or Rebecca) and tell a completely different story.
Personally, I like the third option best, with yet another sequel bringing everything together in the far future. But what do you think? Who or what would you like to see in Revelations 3? Do you even want the Revelations series to be continued at all? Discuss!
Edit: DAMN IT, wrong subforum again! Having one called "General Discussion" and antoher called "Resident Evil General Discussion" is way too confusing for me. @Romero or @La Femme Fatale, could someone please move it there?
