this is very confusing. i thought there was already a remaster? or is this a remake? too lazy to keep up

OG - 1996
Remaster(GCN) - 2002
HD Remaster(most stuff then ported to Switch in 2019) - 2015
Remake rumor - 2026(?)

 

[Badlucktroll]

I'd buy it again, but the OG has so many tight, narrow hallways, not sure how well it would work in third person without some changes.

They’ll figure it out

 

[Arsic]

They’ll figure it out

Yeah it’s not hard to redo corridors. You just make them a pinch wider if needed for third person.

 

[NT80]

I really hope this isn't true. They already remade it and then remastered it years after. Absolutely ridiculous if they do it yet again.
Code Veronica has far more potential than the limited empty RE1.

 

[EverydayBeast]

People are loyal to resident evil more than other franchises

 

[SegaManAU]

Please be true.
Please be true.
Please be true.

 

[sncvsrtoip]

Good decision, never played Code Veronica but read it didnt age well and 1st is classic, should be great in psvr2

 

[deriks]

The game has the perfect remake, so why doing another?

 

[Kydd BlaZe]

I despise the tank controls for the old games, and I couldn't even get into the original remake because of this. This REmake with modernized controls/third person camera is what I've been waiting for.

 

[Alan Wake]

I expected this as a 30 year anniversary. But I think the Gamecube game holds up perfectly well and would prefer Code: Veronica.

 

[SHA]

It shouldn't be short or at least it shouldn't feel short, it has to be special, the new tech should be an advantage, not to show weaknesses we haven't encountered before, cause that would be really bad.

 

[dcx4610]

I'm honestly OK with this. It's been long enough and a full 3D remake would be awesome. The first game is unmatched when it comes to atmosphere and aesthetic to me and can't wait to explore the mansion with proper 3D.

 

[Chronos24]

It's hard to play Resident Evil in something other than vr for me now. 7, Village, and 4 Remake in VR were just so much better that way IMHO. Really hope if this is true there's a VR mode

 

[darrylgorn]

 

[pepodmc_]

They REALLY don't wanna touch Code Veronica when it needs it. lmao.

they will sooner or later, money

 

[Shut0wen]

Why would it be a 4 hour game? A typical playthrough for RE1 (without using a guide or remembering where to go and what to do) should be 10+ hours.

Plus I think Capcom learned their lesson after the shortened RE3R got plenty of backlash.

Played the game to death, could literally finish it in 4 hours easily

 

[Red Crayon Aristocrat]

I really want to see the Spencer Mansion in the RE engine, it's the one thing we've yet to see with the RE engine is a place like that, considering the clock tower was cut from RE3R.

 

[Draugoth]

 

[Traxtech]

Code Veronica needs it most, the original RE remake is essentially perfect as is

 

[Badlucktroll]

I expect Lisa to have a big part in it

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Just beat it today with Chris as a refresher.

Fucking lol if current Capcom thinks they'll do better than this. Just reskin Mr X as Lisa Trevor.

 

[TGO]

We already have the perfect remake of that game and it is called rebirth.

Capcom has become a remake machine.

While I generally agree it's still a 22 year old remake.
As good as they look the remaster didn't use any AI enhanced techniques and are generally upscale.
So to bringing those Pre-rendered background to life in 3D and improving the character models and redoing the voices(I know it was better then the original but it's still not great) + gameplay improvements thanks to the 3d Person perspective would be very welcome.
And although it may look good to us and play perfectly fine.
Some are put off by the controls.

Well, they actually managed to top RE4, one of the best gamer ever made. Everything is in the cards here.

Think a new Remake in line with the other Remakes is fine but I’d REALLY want them to make a completely new one with this gameplay and expand the story in a meaningful way. I’d love to look forward to the next RE because of the story.

I expect Remake 1 with fully rendered environments with ray tracing, more parts with lisa trevor, and a big expanded intro with them landing in the woods and what happened there then going to the mansion

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Main game? Naw. Seperate Ways? Yeah. But to make Seperate Ways good they had to take stuff from the original game and give it to Ada.

If they take EVERYTHING from Remake, add more and slow the pace that game is gonna be so bloated.

 

[Madflavor]

Remake 2002 is already perfection, but that doesn't mean another remake wouldn't have it's place, so long as they do it well. Great as REmake was, it's definitely an odd man out from the rest of the Remakes due to it's fixed camera and tank controls. I'd be 100% on board with this. Not to mention it'd be weird to go right into an RE5 Remake without first establishing the remake versions of Chris and Wesker.

 

[RagnarokIV]

REmake is not only a pefect remake, but also a perfect game.

Will be very very very tough to top.

In my opinion, it's a redundant undertaking. It also means that with REmake being REmaked, they're basically killing the fixed camera legacy of the series.

 

[Moses85]

OG - 1996
Remake(GCN) - 2002
HD Remaster(most stuff then ported to Switch in 2019) - 2015
Remake rumor - 2026(?)

Fixed it

I don't think they are killing anything as you can still choose to play the existing remake with fixed camera, they can sell it as a remake in the style that the modern audiences have proven to like the most.

 

[RagnarokIV]

True, at least they have REmake available on PC and modern systems.
I do wish they would release a classics collection of original 1-3 though.

 

[ChoosableOne]

They think that those who played these games, or even their remakes, back in the day are either dead or have retired from the gaming community. The sad part is, they're probably right in their assumptions. Let's face it, there aren't many old gamers like us left in the market, and we don't significantly impact sales. If my body allows, I plan to play games for another 40 years. The thought of seeing at least 8 different Resident Evil 1 remakes scares me more than death now.

 

[rkofan87]

oh god be real.

 

[Fake]

When I see people defending, no wonder Capcom want to make a remake after a remake.

What we gonna call? ReRemake? I can't even believe they are fightning ND for the title of who make more remakes.

Yeah, not really a fan of remakes. But RE2r was really enjoyable. Capcom and ND are as bad as each other when it comes to ports and remakes, at least Capcom also make new games tho.

They will just call it Resident Evil.

Gooby please. RE4 was both my favourite and most replayed game of all time. Capcom did a phenomenal job and even improved on the original. What a feat.

Nothing against RE2remake, but RE already have a remake. Is like remaking RE2R.

There are others Resident Evil titles to remake and they gonna remake another remake?

At this point would be better just to use A.I to improve the REmake background.

They will just call it Resident Evil.

No way. /s

I mean, it is 22 years old at this point. It could use more than a facial uplift, but I wouldn't complain if they never did.

[acm2000]

first person and id give it a whirl, otherwise pointless, its been redone enough already

 

[april6e]

Why are people praising this? RE1 was already remade and still looks incredible today. I would rather have any other RE game remade like Veronica, Zero, RE5 or such.

 

[Nintendo's Witch]

More Resident Evil is always good.

 

[SF Kosmo]

JFC just do Code Veronica already.

 

[BryceNobody]

Why are people praising this? RE1 was already remade and still looks incredible today.

Looks incredible? Yes.

Plays incredible?…

 

[peronmls]

Jesus. Complete sellouts.

 

[RPSleon]

Another fucking remake? When the original remake was already good enough?

I hope this is just a rumor.

Wasnt that 22 years ago?

but its re1 with the game play of re2r and re4r take my cash now.

 

[SegaSnatcher]

It will be hard to surpass REmake for GC, but they did a great job with RE2.

 

[Jesb]

Why does Capcom refuse to make a new game in the same mold as the remakes?

 

[Perrott]

Why are people praising this? RE1 was already remade and still looks incredible today. I would rather have any other RE game remade like Veronica, Zero, RE5 or such.

Yes, RE1 was already remade, but that was 22 years and three console generations ago.

Calling this rumored new RE1 remake unnecessary is just as stupid of a take as shitting on the idea of a MGS1 remake just because it also got remade for the GameCube, 20 years ago.
