  "textContent": "As part of Capcom’s _Resident Evil Requiem_ promotions, the company shared a tweet on social media announcing that joked Umbrella Corporation, makers of Umbrella Noodles, is \"suing\" Nissin Foods over its Cup Noodles. The statement involves \"IP infringement\" case. As of time of writing, Nissin has yet to respond to the allegations or hinted at any kind of product tie-in. Capcom and Nintendo also released a Creator’s Voice video about the upcoming game. Thanks, [Inside Games!]\n\nThe announcement ended up accompanied by a screenshot designed to look like an in-game look at a discovered document. It noted that on February 24, 2026, the plaintiff Umbrella Corporation filed a case against Nissin Foods due to the likeness between Umbrella Noodles and Cup Noodles. In the replies, a user named Willmesis shared a screenshot from the _Resident Evil 3_ remake of Jill Valentine in front of an Umbrella Noodles advertisement to highlight the likeness between the two items.\n\nhttps://twitter.com/willmesis/status/2026210592135184562\n\nHere’s the full “Evolving Survival Horror for a New Era” Creator’s Voice video with _Resident Evil Requiem_ Director Koshi Nakanishi.\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJ8BrLpv3AQ\n\nThe Cup Noodles and Umbrella Noodles “lawsuit” is the second unusual promotion to come up ahead of the launch of _Resident Evil Requiem_. Prior to that, Yume Group and S.Ride announced a piece of hanging fitness equipment that came with a copy of the game, referencing a part shown in which Grace is hanging upside-down.\n\n_Resident Evil Requiem_  will come to the Switch 2, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC via Steam and Epic Game Store on February 27, 2026. \n\nThe post Resident Evil’s Umbrella Corporation ‘Suing’ Nissin Over Cup Noodles appeared first on Siliconera.",
