Resident Evil Zero and Resident Evil Code Veronica Remakes are in the works at Capcom, a known leaker has claimed.
Some minutes ago, known Resident Evil leaker ‘Dusk Golem’ took to X to talk about the series, and shared some interesting details about the yet-to-be-announced Resident Evil 9, the rumored remake of the original Resident Evil. In addition, the leaker said that remakes of Code Veronica and Zero are currently in development. “A remake of Resident Evil Zero & Code Veronica in development right now”, Dusk Golem wrote. He added, “I’ve talked to many others behind the scenes about this at this point, it’s something I heard over a year ago, think it was going to get out whether I was the one to say it or not, & that’s about it.”
With regard to the rumored RE-powered Resident Evil 1 remake that we reported on earlier this month, the leaker wrote that this, as far as he knows, isn’t happening. “RE:1 Remake rumors are bullshit, as far as I know, RE:1 is not in any form of development at all right now”, he wrote on X.
The same goes for a remake of Resident Evil 5, which isn’t said to be in development either.
As said, the leaker also shared some additional details about Resident Evil 9, which was first said to be revealed very soon. Apparently, as shared by Dusk Golem, this isn’t happening and the release date for the title has apparently been pushed back to late 2025, or early 2026. “First, I would wipe the expectations of RE9 being announced this summer period. The initial murmurs I heard I now do believe are right, & RE9’s announcement”, he shared on X.
According to the leaker, the game will likely be announced further away than initially expected.
He continued, “RE9 is pushed back to late 2025/2026. If everything I’ve heard is correct, which I fully believe it is, & I know others have hinted this & I’m not the first to say this publicly, actually, just its not caught on, there’s actually”.
Of course, none of the information above has been officially confirmed by Capcom in any way. Still, the leaker has proven to be reliable in the past. What are your thoughts about these new Resident Evil remake rumors? Hit the comments below.
