Picking up the original Resident Evil 4 and onwards on PC isn’t nearly as complicated as the first three games, which were long absent on the platform, so it’s perhaps unlikely any grandiose announcements will be made about more releases.Capcom has otherwise been busy remaking these games, beginning with Resident Evil 2 and progressing to include Resident Evil 3 and the fan-favorite Resident Evil 4 too.

Capcom is reportedly working on remakes of Resident Evil Zero and Code Veronica too, alongside a mainline ninth game.Ryan Dinsdale is an IGN freelance reporter. He’ll talk about The Witcher all day.
