Capcom: Resident Evil Due for a 'Full-Scale Offensive' This Year - News
by William D'Angelo , posted on 09 May 2016 / 9,216 Views
Capcom is readying a "full-scale offensive" with the Resident Evil franchise during the current fiscal year ending March 31, 2017.
The next game in the franchise, Resident Evil: Umbrella Corps, releases in June and will be just a "warm up."
This could mean Resident Evil 7 is coming out soon or they could be talking about the Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 5 remasters.
Thanks VG24/7.

And Resident Evil 2 remake. :P
yep, one of my most anticipated games of the gen.
Please take R.E. back to it's former glory. Nobody wants this Umbrella Corps crap.
That choice of words doesn't fill me with confidence...
Umbrella Corps is a cancer
Resident Evil 7 wont happen soon. Capcom is still on the Budget Road and they simply can't handle a new AAA project. Look at the mess they've done with the Launch of Street Fighter V. So, better prepare for new digital releases in the West/Remasters.
But there still is the Resident Evil 2 Remake which was announced and we haven't seen a single concept Artwork till now. I guess the Resident Evil 2 Remake is what they are aiming for 2017.
Oh the other news piece i saw didn't say it was exclusive to resident evil.
If it were then i would expect RE7 and Remake2.
Just me or without RE7 that statement means nothing?? Like would Umbrella Corps, say 2 remasters and a different spin off really be considered a "full-scale offensive"??
Please Capcom!!! I need more Resident Evil!
Capcom, if you don't want to ruin the RE IP, just announce a release date for RE2 Remake and forget all the stuffs you planned about other RE games... Or maybe an announcement about RE3 Remake!
