The next entries in the Resident Evil franchise to get the remake treatment will reportedly be 2000’s CODE: Veronica and 2002’s Zero . This would follow Capcom’s trend of delivering remakes of its old titles, the most recent being the 2023 Resident Evil 4 remake. The rumour comes from Dusk Golem, a prominent survival horror game leaker.
In a Twitter thread in which Dusk Golem gave an update on the state of Resident Evil development, they claimed that both CODE: Veronica and Zero remakes are “in development right now.” They also shut down the swirling rumours that the original Resident Evil is getting a remake (which would be the second time it’s been remade), saying flatly that this is “bullshit.” However, if leakers aren’t trustworthy enough for you, you don’t have to just take Dusk Golem’s word for it this time around: VGC journalist Andy Robinson seemed to corroborate the news on Twitter, saying “Listen to this man” in regards to Dusk Golem’s claims.
Furthermore, IGN reported on these leaks, lending more credence to the rumours. This is good news for Resident Evil fans, as the community has been clamouring for a CODE: Veronica re-release since long before the RE2 remake in 2019 kickstarted Capcom’s trend. The 2000 title, which was originally released on the Sega Dreamcast, follows RE2 protagonist Claire Redfield in what many believe is the true sequel to the second game in the series.
It’s become something of a cult classic but hasn’t seen.
