Resident Evil Code Veronica Remake To Be Announced This Year

Expert Verified By

Capcom is Gearing Up For a Big Resident Evil Year.

Story Highlight
  • Resident Evil Code Veronica Remake is expected to be revealed this year.
  • Resident Evil 5 Remake is also reportedly in development, but will not be announced in 2026.
  • 2026 is shaping up to be a good year for Resident Evil fans.

Popular Resident Evil leaker Dusk Golem has confirmed the Resident Evil Code Veronica Remake will be announced this year. He has also previously leaked that Capcom is developing a Resident Evil 5 Remake, but affirms that it will not be announced this year.

Why it matters: The Resident Evil community has already been expecting more remakes from Capcom, considering the huge success of their previous remakes. However, the order in which Capcom would decide to release them has been a point of contention within the community.

Dusk Golem has a decent track record with Resident Evil leaks. He previously successfully leaked various info regarding the upcoming Resident Evil Requiem. He leaked that Leon and Grace will be playable characters in the game.

This was around the time when Capcom’s official marketing for the game presented Grace as the sole main character of the next main-line Resident Evil game.

Resident Evil Code Veronica is widely regarded as one of the best Resident Evil games, and it was very well received by critics. The game’s Metacritic score sits at 94. The story centers on Chris and Claire Redfield as they try to survive a viral outbreak in a remote location.

 

Capcom previously remastered the game in 2011 for Xbox 360 and PS3, which is why it is not available on current-gen consoles. A remake of the game would introduce it to a much larger audience, with Capcom already grabbing the attention of action fans with the 2023 Resident Evil 4 Remake.

2026 is gearing up to be a big year for Capcom with the upcoming release of Resident Evil Requiem, which recently had a great gameplay showcase. It is expected to be a big commercial success with the return of Leon Kennedy to Raccoon City.
