Resident Evil: Veronica remake has been confirmed as a full third person game and is being developed by the team that remade Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 4. Fans are producing illustrations, chibi comics, short animatics, cosplay, and edits that spotlight Claire Redfield and Alfred Ashford. Many creators are recreating Claire's iconic original render pose and reenacting trailer throwback shots while exploring updated character designs and cinematic remake beats.

we are so close to capcom having to decide if it will remake resident evil 5 or not. a long game of chicken as it tries to decide if it can stall for time by doing veronica or 0 first. you can not run forever

That reveal trailer showed "R," "E," and V" before the full title reveal. I saw that as maybe them trying to rebadge this as 5 in a way to just skip it.

They've already started abbreviating Veronica as "REV" they're trying so hard to avoid it

staring at the 'IsRacist' flag in the editor and sweating over if they want to assign a 0 or 1 to it now

I wonder how much of the remakes have been made with this in mind, and they’ve been subtly changing the story so that an RE5 “remake” has a completely different story

Think about this awful article at least once a week www.destructoid.com/ngai-croal-c...

if they ever did touch it, which i genuinely don’t think they ever should, it’d be such an overhaul that it’s effectively a new game. considering that RE:V will be the first proper time the remake series even deals with Wesker, it’s a good opp to actually remake something.

Remaking V is a lose lose. A remake that retains the controversial elements would be seen as insensitive by one group, a remake that removes them would be decried as 'woke' by another.

years ago i wouldve said 4 was the absolute limit but somehow we've had a the last of us remake so i just dont know

I don't know how you fix Turbo Racism but I want to see them try so badly

Seth Finkelstein2

I think they create basically a new game that hits the basic gist of 5+6

I've been trying to challenge myself to come up with a way they could do it that wouldn't be a catastrophe. I got nothing. They're stuck. There's no way

Remake RE5 but as an online only extraction shooter, it would require only minor tweaks and everyone would be satisfied. Right?
