Capcom's latest remake, Resident Evil 4, has finally released on PS5, PS4. Perhaps the biggest one to date, it's the firm's third remake in four years. It clearly has a knack for doing them successfully at this point, but the quality of the Resident Evil series dropping somewhat after this fourth instalment, where do you think it should go with the initiative next? What game should Capcom remake next?
If it chooses to stick with Resident Evil, then Resident Evil 5 is, of course, the next one up in terms of numbering. Since that's a more modern game, though — and bringing back Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 was all about removing the constraints of the PS1 from those experiences — then Resident Evil Code: Veronica X still remains a viable candidate. It was originally launched for the SEGA Dreamcast in 2000 before being ported to PS2, where it retained the gameplay style of past entries. Handing it a remake would feel just as substantial as Resident Evil 2 and its sequel.
Alternatively, the Japanese publisher could continue its remaking efforts outside of the Resident Evil franchise. Classics like Dino Crisis and Onimusha are always in demand, and it's been a while since anything was done with the Breath of Fire series. A Lost Planet remake, anyone? There are also the Dead Rising games; a franchise that still holds so much potential if done right.

I k ow it's a stretch because they would need to talk to Hasbro but I.would love to see Chronicles of Mystara get a remake.

I'd play Okami in VR with a paintbrush peripheral
None, I think we’ve had plenty of remakes lately. Let them focus on something completely new instead.
I'd rather a new 3rd person Resi or Dino Crisis. Enough remakes already
Of the original resident evil games I’ve only ever played 4 and 5, so I’ll take remakes of the rest of the series. An Onimusha remake similar to the RE remakes would be awesome.
RE 7 and 8 were 4 years apart, so it seems they have a team making new mainline games and other teams working on remakes. We can have the best of both worlds
The original Resident Evil doesn’t need another remake. To this day the 2002 Resident Evil is still the perfect Resident Evil game!
I voted for Code Veronica, but I’d also love to see a Dino Crisis remake, too.
Code veronica is unplayable for me right now so id gladly take a remake.
Realistically, its going to be Resident Evil 5. Why take a risk when you've already got this built-in fanbase that is going nuts over RE4?
Edit: Although it may be a bit problematic in current year. It got mass accusations of racism the first time around and discourse has only gotten more toxic since (and as Yahtzee of Zero Punctuation noted, the ''tribals in grass skirts'' certainly didn't help).
@Darude84 Facts
I know this is a Playstation site but a Minish Cap remake for Switch would be nice.
Onimusha, Dino Crisis or Code Veronica for me.
Would be very excited about Dino Crisis or Onimusha.
The main challenge of a CV remake has to be to make Steve Burnside likeable. I dread that guy.
@Grumblevolcano Good shout 😌
I love that game. I always forget it was by Capcom.
I’d personally prefer them remake any of the original Devil May Cry trilogy. First because it’s the OG. 2nd so it has a good version. 3 because it’s the GOAT
@Grumblevolcano IMO the Oracle games would benefit more from remakes. Minish Cap still looks quite good.
I'd love to see a remake of Shadow of Rome.
Even with the Octavianus bits 😂
We have enough RE remakes for now, I'll rather would like to have a remake of the first Breath of Fire. Capcom could return to RE remakes later. Another game that is overlooked and is really amazing for a remake is the arcade classic Black Dragon; it's perfect for an action RPG.
Code Veronica or Dino Crisis!
Personally it should be Code Veronica but I think the original could do with a second remake because the GameCube one feels really dated next to the recent remakes now.
I want dino crisis remake but I also want resident evil 5 remake, with night setting (rather than day like in the ps3 version) and more added horror element like in re4 remake.
And make chris less buff, I actualy surprised seeing chris in re1 remake on ps4 since he looked so human compared to the re5 version lol.
Wanting a good co-op experience, I’d pick Resi5. But. Only if they fixed it so the PS version worked like the Xbox version. Each account having its own inventory and money. The wife and I were so disappointed when we got the ps3, and later ps4 versions, only to find them practically unplayable in co-op after playing on 360 originally.
Dino "RAWR" Crisis. For the amount of people who have suggested it, they would be silly to not do it. They used the original Resi games to inspire it, why not do that again!?
I know that Dino Crisis is going to be the clear winner here and i can't blame you, but i would kill for a Breath of Fire remake.
No more remakes. If you can't come up with an original idea, please hire some fresh talent that can.
Cashing in over and over again on recycled foundational content grows stale . While admittedly Capcom have done okay ones they still largely recycled content re-released at full price. Every time one of these titles is applauded based on nostalgic affection, and keeping up with original review scores, we end up getting others like naughty dog literally remaking nothing but visuals calling it a remake, and charging full price for it.
Then we have the handfull of other developers using AI tools and outsourced support developers making lazy cash grab remasters that end up doing such a bad job they have to be fixed post launch.
I don't like this future of gaming that looms on the horizon riddled with even more live service predation, and remakes, and other forms of corporate profit based formulaic project design.
I will say it again. If you cannot create an original story or idea, there are millions of individuals out there that can help you on that.
Even with sequels or well tread game styles, it's important to remember that if you are going to simply copy and paste the same exact gameplay features without refinement or innovation then you better damn well have a compelling new story to tell. Returnal, Ghost of Tsushima and GOW2 did this well (although bloated and poorly paced). TLOU2, Ratchet and Clank, Spiderman, and Horizon 2 did not.
If I had to pick one remake that would be epic in terms of modernizing to re2 remake style, it would absolutely be the original resident evil.
Capcom, please just focus all of your best talent and new talent on a new modern take on Dragons Dogma in the works and nurture that along with updating your engine. It's time.
Oh and what happened to Pragmata?
@Shepherd_Tallon Steve Burnside really was the Anakin Skywalker of Resi wasn't he? 😂
Power Stone 1 + 2
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night! …I’ll show myself out
(Duh) no Crisis.
@LukeOS94 It does have local co-op.
Capcom should remake Bloodborne for From since From doesn’t wanna
Glad to see Dino Crisis dominating the poll.
How About Mega Man They could Remake the Mega Man Legends Games Or Even the Older Ones.
Dino Crisis and Code Veronica
Street fighter 2!
Where’s my God Hand remake at?!?
I’m ready for an adult, violent-as-hell, graphically mind-blowing Mega Man using REngine. Give me a totally new, reimagined version of this amazing and iconic IP.
YOU CAN DO IT, CAPCOM!
Dino Crisis and keep the ability to beat the game without ever needed to shoot most things.
It took 34 replies until Dragon's Dogma was mentioned. I'll second that.
Onimusha and God Hand, actually anything from 🍀
@Swirly He really was 😂😂
Final fight!
A modern 2d version with physics would be great.
Resi Code Veronica for me thanks.
I'd prefer if Capcom cooled it on the remakes for a while and focus on something original. But I guess I'm alone in that.
Does anyone remember that Pragmata is supposed to come out thus year?
Does anyone Remember Pragmata at all?
Okami or the original RE.
Otherwise just focus on new stuff.
Marvel vs capcom 2 or the original strider
Powerstone
Onimusha
Dino Crisis
Rival Schools
In no particular order.
I did enjoy Lost Planet 1 but it was insanely hard. The sequels i didnt think were as good. Stunning games
If they continue with the RE remakes, I’d like them to remake Code Veronica or the original one next. They had shut down some fan remakes of those so there’s rumors they did that because they were remaking them themselves. I wouldn’t even mind RE 0. I would like to see them do something with Dino Crisis or Dead Rising. Capcom has been on a roll lately. I’m hoping they continue to bring us some great games to come.
Mega Man Legacy, full on remake with modern everything.
Egg and spoon race
I'd love Dino Crisis! However, if they stay with RE I think they should do Code Veronica.
Onimusha gets my vote. They're really good games. There's a port on PS4 of Onimusha, but it could go for an update.
Plus it's probably a given they're going to keep working through the good Resident Evil games.
The RE engine is quite good. I'd been good if they designed a VR game from the ground up using it, Resident Evil or otherwise.
The only correct answer here is Code Veronica. It should have gotten the remake treatment before RE4. If they remake 5 it's confirmation they don't care what the fans want.
I can see Capcom being afraid of remaking Code Veronica and 5 since one features a cross-dresser villain and the other plenty of black people as the villains. That's something modern-day Twitter would freak out about, they only want white straight people to be the villains nowadays.
Shadow of Rome!
Capcom have become one of my top publishers over the last few years. I would like to see them tackle more than RE, MH. DMC was great and while I'm not into fighters I'm sure SF will be good. I'm not sure Exoprimal is for me but I'm happy to see them trying new things, I'm certainly going to give it a try. Although It will probably be on GP and not a purchase.
Viewtiful Joe.
Didn’t Capcom verbatim say that Code Veronica wasn’t getting remade? I’d rather not see RE5 or 6 remade, personally, since I don’t think either game really deserves one unless they go FF7 Remake and just change the story.
Dino Crisis seems like the logical answer, but I’d rather have Megaman Legends!
Resident Evil 1 in the style of Resident Evil 2. I know RE1 already had a remake but that was a facelift, I mean a true remake.
It would be cool to see a remake of Resident Evil 5. I think with use of modern technologies it have the potential to be an awesome game and experience.
Remake OG Monster Hunter or Tri
@Stevey_Mac Your answer couldn't be more incorrect, code veronica is the worst of the classic resident evil, it underperformed, the story and characters are bad and annoying, the music is wack and it has a couple of section where you can get permanently stuck if you dont manage your inventory right, RE4 is one of the most influential and acclaimed games of all time, in what universe does code veronica deserves a remake before RE4
@NeonPizza pls tell me this is bait
Isn't exoprimal dino crisis in the future? I'm surprised only 6% interested in Onimusha but I guess it's due to the flood of souls like games. I'd still like a remake though with the same non souls like gameplay. I also would like them to remake power stone that game would do a lot better in today's market.
Removed - trolling/baiting
I knew it, Power Stone wouldn’t get any love.
I loved Power Stone.
@RudeAnimat0r I could hug you. I love Power Stone.
@Darude84 a new ip called Callisto protocol just launch 4 month ago, go play that and then comback and tell us how you liked your "new ideas ip game"
@LordBakemono In my opinion it deserved the remake. Shinji Mikami himself said it was the proper successor to RE2 and deserved to be a numbered title. If you don't think it's deserving of a remake then that's up to you, but many people adored it and it was far more in need of a remake than an RE4 which was much better graphically.
@Stevey_Mac you just said it yourself, opinions are opinions, don't go around saying that's the only only correct answer, your opinions are not facts.
Onimusha remake is my first choice.word up son
Would be happy with onimusha, dino crisis or code Veronica
@LordBakemono What a jobsworth troll comment. You were given reasons as to why I gave the original opinion on a poll that relies on opinions. The statement "the only correct answer" is used in jest obviously. It wasn't aimed at people like you who take everything they read on the internet literally. I have made the same comment on multiple stories in relation to Capcom on this site.
@LordBakemono are you just trolling anyone who has an opinion that differs from your opinion?
Pretty hippocritical to call one negative by in turn being overtly negative with speech targeting the poster rather than offering any actual insights of your own.
Just a heads up. A comment section is a space to share a diverse spanse of thoughts. A comment isn't negative or wrong merely because it differs from you individual worldview. If your contribution is to simply jump on anyone or thing divergent from your worldview, then so be it.
I Hope you see how close minded and hippocritical that is, not to overlook that it is not really contributing to a discussion in any way beyond provocation.
Resident Evil 0
They could remake it and maybe tweak the storyline enough for it to make more sense.
If not RE0 I think Devil May Cry 1 should get a remake using the engine DMC5 used.
Also....Darkstalkers. C'mon Capcom....you either need to make DS4 or reboot it.
Viewtiful Joe!
I'd like to see Dino Crisis remade, with Code Veronica a close second. However now that I've played the RE4 remake, I'm a little annoyed with how much of a rush job the RE3 remake was. Most of RE4's locations have been faithfully recreated, but RE3 remake's Racoon City was so ridiculously condensed and simplified
Chaos Legion … I think they could reimagine it.
If we re talking flatscreen, Dino Crisis all the way. If it was VR though, id love to see the first RE updated to first person in a headset. That would really be something special.
Lost Planet? Dead Rising? Seriously those games are already playable on modern consoles and are fine as is.
Can we maybe have something new for a change? Not the same old games just redone with "shiny" graphics and "updated" controls.
Wow everybody is boring these days
Defenantly deep down
None. I want new IPs. It bewilders me how some people wish for last-gen to be left behind, while simultaneously thirsting for remakes.
As much as I'm enjoying the Resident Evil remakes a lot, it's got to be Dino Crisis for me. It'd be something a bit different, and I imagine there are a lot of players who frequent sites like this who've never played it before.
I would love RE4make-styled remakes of RE0, RE1 and Code: Veronica. It would also be great if we could get RE5 and RE6 remakes that are actually scary like the other REmakes.
LED Storm!
Or Forgotten Worlds.
Dino Crisis is long overdue for a revival
Some love for the forgotten Maximo
For the love of everything I hope they remake Resident Evil 1. Having finished it a few weeks ago for the first time, the controls are so bad at this point. I would love to see it remade like RE2-4 as it would make the scares much more intense due to the small rooms and halls throughout the game.
I want Code Veronica to be next but a Dino Crisis remake would definitely be a day one buy.
I chose Resident Evil 5 as I like the idea of remaking games that didn't quite live up to it's potential. Feel those would have more to gain from a remake rather than games that are already classics.
Capcom should remake Killer 7.
Veronica X and then Resident Evil definitely, complete the collection. 5 isn't old enough to desperately need a remake but it would be nice.
I’d like them do something new… like a new Megaman X game powered by RE Engine.
But if you’re gonna remake something in the RE Engine, do Dino Crisis. Considering how dormant that franchise is (wasn’t the last title released in like 2002?) it would feel like an entirely new experience for most people.
Detective Conan Remake
Dino Crisis I would love to see a Regina with the new tech. I had a blast with the series and a way to make Dino Crisis 3 go away by writing it out of existence.
Dino Crisis, Darkstalkers, and (hopefully if CyberConnect2 is on board) Asura's Wrath, among others.
They should have remade code veronica instead of RE4. It was completely daft.
After that do Dino crisis 1 and 2 for sure.
Won't say no to Breath of fire getting revived either.
not going to lie i want code veronica the most , but a modern day remake of zero and 1 would also be welcomed.
I'm old and like beat em ups' so it would have to be Final Fight for me or 1942
Doing another Final Fight like the recent TMNT or SoR4 would be amazing!
@Bentleyma I voted opposite way round voted Dino but would love Veronica 👍
Or we could retry doing re3make properly 🤣🤣🤣
My first reaction is Onimusha. Would be awesome!
I say a definate Dino Crisis and Code Veronica
Dino Crisis is the obvious choice but where's the love for 0? It's the prequel to what started it all and miss Chambers deverses a comeback.
Okami or better yet just make Okami 2.
Glad to see others like @Gremio108 @Altaria_97 are on board too
Code Veronica or Dino Crisis.
But, why not both?
Well there is a clear leader here and damn imagine how good dino crisis will be on ps5!!
I really hope nobody at capcom offices encourages RE5 or RE1/ZERO RE-Remake they are not needed, and CVX was not really that good I don't know why so many want it.
I'd take re5 or 6 redo before that.
DINO CRISIS
Dino crisis as you cant play that on ps5 at the moment.
then Veronica because while you can it plays poorly now the ps2 emulated version
then resident evil 5 that game needs some changes
I believe they should remake dino crises it was a great series I used to call it dino resident evil lol and they should remake re5 and 6 fix there stories and issues it had. Code Veronica should also should get remake with re zero make re zero co op.
Dino Crisis 1 and 2, but also I'd love to see Resident Evil: Outbreak files 1 and 2, maybe remade as 1 game. It would be fun to play those again in co-op with a modern style.
As much as I do love these RE remakes, I really do want to see them do something different like Breath of Fire or Dino Crisis. Heck, do Chaos Legion.
Shadow of Rome. It'll never happen, but a man can dream.
Resident Evil Code: Veronica, Dino Crisis, or Onimusha I'd be happy with.
@z0d15g0d As far as I'm aware exoprimal isn't part of Dino Crisis
@Fragpuss it is not lol
@C25CLOUD hood because it looks awful lol
It's time for steel battalion line of contact to come back I reckon.
I could quite happily put another 1000 or so hours into that.
Even better, with modern netcode we might even get a 5v5 to work!
@Fragpuss I play the demo it was interesting lmao
While I would happily take Dino Crisis and Onimusha remakes, I really just want new entries.
As for Resident Evil, CODE: Veronica NEEDS the remake treatment the most as it's in the worst shape (by modern standards) of all the pre-RE4 titles. It's ugly, feels terrible to play, and the writing/performances are atrocious...but, the majority of CV's development was outsourced, which is why I think Capcom treats it like the black sheep of the series and why I don't think they'll go back to it...which is a shame.
If I were a betting man, I'd put money on them going back to RE1, just so they can have easily accessible, modern versions of all the early mainline titles.
Viewtiful Joe.
Dino Crisis ? Really? RE Code Veronica X hands down
Dino Crisis, definitely.
and the RE Outbreak games, they came out before their time.
Surely it's Code Veronica, which was supposed to be the mainline third entry originally but because of a contract with Sony they weren't allowed to call it "3". What actually became "3" was Jill's side story and this Code Veronica was born.
I voted for Onimusha (as I surely would loooove a modern way to play Onimusha 3). But I'd rather prefer a new iteration of this (sadly) forgotten IP.
I know this is an odd one, but I'd like to see them do a Viewtiful Joe Collection.
Dino crisis 1 & 2
@NeonPizza This would be the most optimal release strategy, agreed!
Cadillacs and Dinosaurs!
Résident Evil Outbreak remake 1 and 2
(coop offline at home and online)
