Amid celebrations for Resident Evil’s 30th anniversary, executive producer Jun Takeuchi revealed what future plans Capcom had for the Resident Evil<\/a> series, including what will happen after the devs run out of games to remake. <\/p>\n

“The current ‘Resident Evil’ series is being developed along two tracks: the numbered titles allow players to experience the ongoing story of the series, while the remake series allows them to experience the past,” Takeuchi says (via RENEWS<\/a>). This isn’t new information as Capcom has begun its huge remake project in 2019 (with the Resident Evil 2 remake<\/a>) and has since gone on to give Resident Evil 3<\/a> and Resident Evil 4<\/a> facelifts as well, with the next scheduled to be Code: Veronica. <\/p>\n

\ud83d\udc40 Jun Takeuchi on the future of Resident Evil and the remake series eventually catching up with the numbered games.”The current \u201cResident Evil\u201d series is being developed along two tracks: the numbered titles allow players to experience the ongoing story of the series, while the remake series allows them to experience the past. Someday, the remake series will catch up with the era of the numbered titles, and we are already thinking about what we will do when that happens. In fact, we have been gradually preparing for that since around \u201cResident Evil Village.\u201d The appearance of names such as Umbrella and Spencer, as well as the return of Raccoon City in \u201cRequiem,\u201d are also in preparation for a \u201ccrossover.\u201dOne of the reasons we regard \u201c7\u201d as a turning point for the series is that it was also the title where we began working on this kind of setup. At first, we included these elements with the sense that they were fan service, but users were far more delighted by them than we had imagined, and they even began analyzing the thoughts that the development team had privately kept to itself. So, as a series, we decided to respond to users\u2019 expectations and pushed this setup further in \u201cVillage\u201d and \u201cRequiem.\u201d(via: BIOHAZARD 30th Special Mook)September 30, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/figure>\n

It seems that Capcom is planning to finish remaking all the older games, perhaps pre Resident Evil 7 which Takeuchi deems as a “turning point” for the series. So if that’s true we may expect to see the following:<\/p>\n
