Resident Evil 5 is a popular survival horror game that was first released in 2009. The game was praised for its co-op gameplay and impressive graphics. After the success of the Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 remakes, fans have been eagerly waiting for the remake of the next games such as Remakes of Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 5. Resident Evil 4 Remake is about to get released on March 24, 2023, and Resident Evil fans have started wondering when will the remake of Resident Evil 5 get released. So, if you are also here looking for information/predictions about the release date of Resident Evil 5 Remake, then you are at the right place. Let’s get right into it.
Resident Evil 5 Remake Release Date
At this time, Capcom has not officially announced a Resident Evil 5 remake. There have been rumors circulating that the game is in development, but nothing has been confirmed. Well, there is nothing wrong with predictions. Remakes of Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil 3, and Resident Evil 4 were released in 2019, 2020, and 2023 respectively. If we analyze this release pattern, then predicting the release of RE5 Remake isn’t that hard. Based on the data of previous releases of remakes by Capcom, there is a high chance that Resident Evil 5 Remake will be released near 2025. This of course is not official information, so take it with a pinch of salt.
If a Resident Evil 5 remake is released, it is likely that it will be available on platforms including PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. It is also possible that the game could be released on the Nintendo Switch(but that seems highly unlikely), as the previous Resident Evil games have been made available on this platform. On the contrary, it is also possible that the RE5 remake does not get released on eighth-generation video game consoles. Well, Resident Evil 4 remake has excluded one eighth-generation video game console from its supported platforms list, i.e., Xbox One. The reason behind this is still unknown but it is possible that Capcom Studios want to deliver better quality and visuals in their games that can be only compatible with ninth-generation consoles or higher.
The story of Resident Evil 5 Remake will also be similar to the original game as it has been done in previous remakes. The graphics, controls, mechanics, visuals, etc., however, will be certainly upgraded. Anyways, now you know everything about the release date of Resident Evil 5 Remake.
