Will Capcom remake Resident Evil 5?

My guess would be aspects of Code: Veronica just get folded into a Resident Evil 5 remake. Or it just gets turned into RE5 remake DLC. But since they haven’t renamed Code: Veronica yet, they’re definitely remaking RE5 after RE4, and Code: Veronica directly connects into RE5...it’s probably going to be there is some way.
I think there's zero chance of that. They'd either have to cut too much out or charge $50-$60 for a DLC.

Not really. Code: Veronica is a fairly short game. Like the original Resident Evil, it takes a while on your first go, but that’s just because you’re trying to figure out where stuff is.

When I first played Code: Veronica I’d just gotten my Dreamcast, and I didn’t have a VMU yet, which means I couldn’t save the game, so every time I died I had to start the whole fucking game over again. I thought this would be terrible. Starting over from the beginning every single time? The first time took hours. But a few goes later and I was getting off the island in around an hour. And that’s longer than the first Resident Evil, the remake, which adds more stuff, can be beaten in an hour once you know the puzzles and have your routes figured out.

The point is, there’s not actually a ton of content in the game, so if they wanted to do it as DLC it wouldn’t be that hard.
I get what you're saying, but length to beat once you know what you're doing doesn't necessarily translate to it being DLC. The remake of 3, from what I hear, should have been a DLC for the remake of 2. In practice, I think it depends solely on how much money they want out of it.
Exactly. Considering they gave RE3 the full game treatment, there's no way in hell CV would be any less if they decide to do something with it.

So they're going for round two then eh? Faggot journalists already fucked with the game back in 2007 by bitching about it being racist after its initial E3 trailer.
Understandably Capcom was completely baffled by the reaction. As they were yet untainted by the corrupting influence of western identity politics, it never once occurred to them the game could be interpreted that way.
And yeah, Capcom has denied that any changes they made to the game were due to any allegations of racism, but it's incredibly obvious they were as the very next trailer they released clearly made an effort to indicate that you'll be gunning down an ethnically diverse cast of zombies. Hooray!

Resident Evil 3 is a vastly more well know game. The PSX version of RE3 outsold both the Dreamcast and PS2 versions of Code: Veronica combined...and they’ve already skipped it.

So? You're still missing the point. It's about how much content there is. CV had way more than RE3. It's much too long to pawn off as DLC unless they butchered the hell out of it.

Rumour: Resident Evil 9 May Have Been 'Internally Delayed' At Capcom
It's been a whole year since Resident Evil 4 Remake launched on Xbox Series X|S (and almost three years since Village dropped), so naturally, attention is now turning towards RE's next mainline entry. 'Resident Evil 9' hasn't been officially announced yet, but we've already heard it might be open world - and now a fresh rumour is pointing towards a longer-than-expected development time.

According to the same leaker that dropped details on RE9's open world nature, the next mainline Resi game "might've been internally delayed for one reason or another" over at Capcom. This info is quite vague, but basically, leaker 'Dusk Golem' had heard that RE9 was aiming for a 2024 reveal, 2025 launch - but now the team's timeline may have been pushed back a bit.

The hyperlinked Source in my posts refers to the site reporting the story, which in this instance is Pure Xbox, so it is not a lie.

Think they hire this guy for the story rewrite in the remake? 14 years still waiting for part 2.

Even if the next Resident Evil did hit a delay, I could see Capcom still announcing it this summer during the not E3 time.

The last few years now Capcom has been juggling a few major releases at a time, and only really announced the next wave of major titles after the other stuff has been released. The only big break from this was announcing the next Monster Hunter before Dragon’s Dogma 2 was out. Well, now all there major titles have been released, and the only upcoming major title they have announced is that new Monster Hunter... as well as the perpetually in development, thrice delayed, Pragmata. So we should be hearing about some new stuff this summer. And outside of Pragmata, and seeing more Monster Hunter, a new Resident Evil is the only other new major thing they have left.

The old 2020 leaks had Monster Hunter 9 (Wilds), a game called Resident Evil Apocalypse, a new Captain Commando (my guess would be that’s a smaller project like Ghosts 'n Goblins Resurrection), and a Super Street Fighter 6 release coming out the same year. Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddes is coming out sometime this year. The leak list did have what sounds like some kind of Mega Man fighting game, Rockman Taisen, (Taisen being something akin to fight or battle) that they were aiming to release alongside a bunch of stuff that’s already out now as well which has yet to be announced if it’s even still a thing.

That all said, Capcom’s 2025 is basically wide open, with the only thing announced I know of so far being Monster Hunter Wilds. If that other stuff comes out in 2025 alongside Wilds, like Pragmata, and the Captain Commando game, (and they could just announce that this year and release it at the same time) I could see no new RE game being announced this summer at least; would probably be the Game Awards this year at the end of the year anyways.

Taisen could be related to the Super Robot Taisen series. Could be a megaman tactics game. Would be interesting if nothing else.

I wouldn't be shocked if a dino crisis remake was on the way. We're running out of REs and they have the assets from the drag queen dinosaur game. It's a cheap remake.

Super Robot Wars is made by Bandai Namco, not Capcom. So it’s doubtful there’s any connection. Taisen in both titles just means something along the lines of: fight, battle, war.

It’s possible the Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess RTS tower defense game was once some kind of Mega Man version of the same style of game with some robots helpers you controlled. My assumption is it’s a rework of the game in the leak that was listed as “Onimusha New Work” given the setting, but who knows.

The leak list had the next couple years of Capcom projects laid out, and there was no Dino Crisis in there. If they were going to do a new Dino Crisis they probably would’ve just branded Exoprimal as Dino Crisis: Something or Other. I wouldn’t even be surprised if Exoprimal (which was their “Shield” game in the leaks) started as some Dino Crisis multiplayer game given the time travel stuff present in both games, and was just rebranded as something else given how much time had gone by and how different it was from any of the previous (also all different from one another) games. At this point I’d sooner expect a Resident Evil game were someone was experimenting with dinosaur DNA as a means to do dinosaur enemies than a new Dino Crisis.
