Resident Evil reboot movie is reportedly in the works from Barbarian creator Zach Cregger.The first Resident Evil movie was released in 2002 with Milla Jovovich’s Alice working with soldiers to contain an outbreak of the T-Virus, which turns people into zombies. The film borrowed elements from 1996’s original Resident Evil and the 1998 sequel but also took a lot of creative liberties with the lore of the survival horror franchise.Five more movies in the Resident Evil series were released before 2021 reboot Resident Evil: Welcome To Racoon City.Welcome To Racoon City also took heavy inspiration from the first two Resident Evil games but was met with mixed reviews.

Capcom has neither confirmed nor denied the possibility of a Resident Evil: Code Veronica remake, saying that the publisher is in the midst of “discussions regarding the future expansion of the series”.GamesRadar first reported the find from a Q&A session after a general shareholder meeting that was held today (July 6).In it, a shareholder queried if Capcom is considering “providing high-end visual remakes of only the main numbered entries in the Resident Evil series”.Capcom replied that it’s “carrying out discussions regarding the future expansion of the series so it can be enjoyed by a wide audience”.The wording seems to suggest that Capcom might be mulling it over. Remakes of Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil 3 and Resident Evil 4 have proved successful for the company, commercially and critically, with Resident Evil 4 becoming one of the fastest-selling entries in the entire history of the series when it released in March.If Capcom isn’t properly considering a remake of the 2000 title, it would likely upset fans who took on the task of a Resident Evil: Code Veronica remake for themselves.Late last year, the company contacted the team and asked that the project be cancelled owing to the use of Capcom-owned characters and the Resident Evil trademark.At the time, Capcom emphasised that this wasn’t in relation to an official remake.

Capcom has shared a third trailer for the upcoming Resident Evil 4 Remake and confirmed post-launch downloadable content (DLC).Shared as part of yesterday’s PlayStation State Of Play presentation (February 23), the new trailer sees Leon fighting for survival.“For those of you who played the original game, you might recognise some of the scenes,” promotion producer Edvin Edsö told Sony. “Drama! Action! New gameplay! Let us know what secrets you found hidden within the new footage.”Alongside the “glimpse at the confrontation between Leon and Krauser,” the new trailer also confirms the return of The Mercenaries game mode.

Resident Evil 4 Shinji Mikami has explained that the team at Capcom never designed the influential camera system to be groundbreaking.Mikami recently spoke to fellow Resident Evil franchise veteran Jun Takeuchi about the last 25 years of the series, with the second part of the video releasing today (August 29).In the interview video, Mikami and Takeuchi address the overwhelmingly positive response the game had from players and other developers for simply moving the camera over the protagonist’s shoulder.Check out the video, with its text translation, below. “It felt natural, oddly enough, we weren’t planning on doing something innovative, but in the end everyone kept saying we did,” said Mikami (via VGC).“To us personally, we just thought that angle was better. We weren’t trying to do something new or groundbreaking, there was none of that.”Apparently Masahiro Sakurai, the long-time director of the Super Smash Bros.
