I'm hoping Capcom will come to their senses & release both the 1st remake & RE2 game with a single disc physical release.

Doubtful

I was wondering the same thing. It was my understanding that she was supposed to be in the original but had to be cut and was later added to the REmake.

I loved the RE remake back on the Wii and thought the additions like Lisa were really cool and tied into the overall story in this series pretty well.

Not sureif I'll be getting this remake though, so many other games to play and as beautiful as this game will look I don't think I'll want to spend the time on it again. I'll definitely watch some videos though.

Stupid change IMO.

Resident Evil 2 Remake Inspired by Resident Evil 6 Feedback

Resident Evil 2 remake producer Yoshiaki Hirabayashi says that the fan response to Resident Evil 6 is influencing the development of the newest game in the series.

While fans wait for concrete news on what the upcoming Resident Evil 2 remake will entail, Capcom’s Yoshiaki Hirabayashi, the game’s producer, has spoken about what has influenced its development. According to Hirabayashi, one of the main influences behind the development of the Resident Evil 2 remake is how fans responded to Resident Evil 6.

Before Resident Evil 6 released, every main series Resident Evil game had launched to above-average reviews and overall positive critical reception. Resident Evil 6, meanwhile, had lukewarm critical reception at best, and was generally criticized for abandoning the franchise’s horror roots for a more action-oriented approach. Since fans responded negatively to Resident Evil 6‘s take on the RE universe, Hirabayashi claims that they can expect the Resident Evil 2 remake to avoid making similar mistakes.

Whether this means that the Resident Evil 2 remake will have an over-the-shoulder camera like the more recent Resident Evil games or if it will return to the fixed-camera method that the older games used remains to be seen, however. That being said, Hirabayashi has also said that his experience working on the original Resident Evil remake has also helped in the development of the upcoming Resident Evil 2 reboot.

As many fans know, Capcom has also recently released a remaster of the Resident Evil remake, as well as a remaster of Resident Evil 0. Hirabayashi has also pointed to the remasters as being important learning experiences going into the development of the Resident Evil 2 remake, which may indicate that the game will have more in common with those games than Resident Evil 6.

Whatever form the forthcoming rendition of Resident Evil 2 takes, fans will likely rest easy knowing that the feedback to Resident Evil 6 is what’s influencing the game’s development, as opposed to Resident Evil 6 itself. It will be interesting to see what route Capcom takes with the game, and whether it will play more like a modern Resident Evil title or if it will be more in line with the older games in the series. All things considered, whatever Capcom decides to do with Resident Evil 2 could mean major ramifications for the franchise as a whole, and its success (or lack thereof) could play a factor in the shape that the rumored Resident Evil 7 takes.

The Resident Evil 2 remake is in development for unspecified platforms.

Doubtful

Knowing how they love to release collections of the game so many times I am sure they will release a Resident Evil collection including remake, zero and 2. I am waiting for them to bring out Resident Evil Outbreak with online play it was such an underrated game that not many people had the chance of playing.

You mean Shinji Mikami and his team did a great job 14 years ago.

And he is gone now, so I have my doubts.

And he ruined the franchise by making it action based a few years later, and proved he can't make good horror games anymore by again making a crappy shooter in the evil within. So... No real loss there.

We got all the old resident evil games remastered on PS4,but not this one,and also 3 if I'm not mistaken.Any chance that it might drop as a digital download, out of the blue at the end of the month to tie in with 7?

[dallywhitty]

It's getting a full-on remake, although they've not announced a release date yet. I imagine it'll be a while. We know very little about it and there's been nothing in the way of screenshots or trailers.

No. As dally said it's a full on remake (see FF7 which won't even have the first episode out this year). RE 4-6 were already out on PC so the ports were easy.

[Verisimilitude1984]

I think they want to get RE VII out of the way, concentrate on that and without any distractions.

There has been internet rumour of an RE2 Remake demo coming with RE VII, but I think that's 99% unlikely given the above. Like everyone else, I can't wait to see those first screenshots and trailer...hoping for something in the style of RE Remake!

[Dakota A.]

Maybe they'll show us something at E3? They've been SUPER quiet about it.

Same. I'm quite nervous with no Mikami or Kamiya. Even if the game wasn't a 1:1 remake like RE1 on the Gamecube, the fact that Mikami would be behind it would be reassuring. But that's not the case...so at the least, I'm hoping that Alyson Court returns as Claire. Speaking of Claire, I hope she's back to her original design, too.

I imagine they've been busy with scenario work. Planning on what new features to add, like Lisa Trevor in REmake. Hopefully like Verisimilitude1984 mentioned, now with RE7 out of the way, it should be full steam ahead with this game. I dunno why they wasted their time with that Umbrella mercenaries game (no offense to those who liked it).

Maybe a behind closed doors but I sadly don't think this would be front and center at their booth.
