Will it be Resident Evil 5?
TheResident Evilfranchise has been on top of the world lately, especially with the release of theResident Evil 4remake. Now, not wanting to stop this juggernaut, Capcom is asking you which other game in the iconic survival horror series you’d like to see get remade, if any.
Therecent surveyposes a few questions about how well people know what’s happening in the world ofResident Evil. For example, people are asked whether they follow any of the official social media channels, as well as how familiar they are with the entries, be they games or movie adaptations. One of the final questions then gives you the chance to suggest which installment you’d like to see a remake of.
WithCapcom flying high in terms of sales, no doubt the studio is interested in where to take things from here. It should be pointed out that the survey results won’t necessarily mean there’ll be anotherREremake in the pipeline. However, there have already been rumors that the series’ 2009 release,Resident Evil 5could be getting reimagined, but there’s no solid evidence for that yet.
Given that theremake ofResident Evil 4has sold millions of copies, it’s not surprising that Capcom wants to keep bringing back older entries. At this point, however, anything past the fourth entry doesn’t quite fit the “classic” status of the earlier installments.RE5is certainly a mainline series entry but arguably may not necessarily warrant a full remake.
Maybe the results of this survey will lead Capcom into deciding an official remake of it is the way forward.
