Poll: What Game Should Capcom Remake Next?

Capcom’s latest remake, Resident Evil 4, has finally been released on the PS5, PS4. Perhaps the biggest to date, this is the firm’s third remake in four years. It clearly has the talent to do them successfully at this point, but the quality of the Resident Evil series has been declining somewhat since this fourth installment, where do you think it should go with the next initiative? What game should Capcom remake next?

If it chooses to stick with Resident Evil, Resident Evil 5 is, of course, next in terms of numbering. Since it’s a more modern game, though – and bringing back Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 was all about removing the PS1 constraints from those experiences – then Resident Evil Code: Veronica X is still a viable candidate. It originally launched for the SEGA Dreamcast in 2000 before being ported to the PS2, where it retained the gameplay style of the previous entries. Handing it a remake would feel just as important as Resident Evil 2 and its sequel.

Alternatively, the Japanese publisher could continue its remake efforts outside of the Resident Evil franchise. Classics like Dino Crisis and Onimusha are always in demand, and it’s been a while since anything has been done with the Breath of Fire series. A Lost Planet remake, anyone? There are also Dead Rising games; A franchise that still has a lot of potential if done right.
