Fans of the Resident Evil series have long been hoping for a remake of Resident Evil 2 and with the recent HD release of Resident Evil’s first game as well as the upcoming release of Resident Evil 0 Remastered, everyone has been quite vocal in hoping that Capcom would take a chance to work on a Resident Evil 2 Remake.
Hopes were kept tempered due to the title not having a GameCube release to work off of like the previous two titles, but thankfully it seems that will not be an issue. Producer Yoshiaki Hirabayashi has announced that Capcom has approved Resident Evil 2 Remake for development via a video message that you can check out below. It is worth noting that he does say that it will “be some time” before any updates on the project can be released but this is obviously some great news for fans of the classic Resident Evil titles.
