Capcom’s Resident Evil 0 HD Remaster has “performed favourably” according to the publisher in its latest earnings report. Having launched this past January, the sales named only account for the period between January and March 31st 2016.

These sales seem to encompass only digital sales though and don’t necessarily include copies sold through the Resident Evil Origins Collection (which also features Resident Evil HD Remaster). Regardless, the sales are good news for Capcom, especially coming off of last year’s success with RE HD Remaster.

A remake is also in development for Resident Evil 2 and unlike the above remasters, this will be a full remake from the ground-up. No details have been revealed, not even a release date. Could E3 2016 be the place where Capcom unveils more information? Perhaps the Resident Evil 2 Remake is part of the “full scale offensive” that Capcom has planned for the second half of the 2017 fiscal year? Time will tell so stay tuned for more information.

Though it’s been a rather quiet week for the West, Japan saw some rather cool releases in the past few days according to the latest Media Create sales chart data.

Just days before the E3 madness threatens to take us all, Capcom has announced its line-up for the show and confirmed that all games will be playable in some way or another.

The biggest titles to be heading to E3 include Street Fighter 5, which will have new details and gameplay showcased along with a tournament stage, and Resident Evil 0 HD Remaster. E3 2015 will mark the first time that the latter will be playable so attendees can take it for a spin and see if it matches up to other recent remasters.

Mega Man Legacy Collection will also be worth a look especially given its bundling of six top-tier Mega Man titles for the price of one. Devil May Cry 4: Special Edition will also be present just before its release and will offer new gameplay footage along with a playable demo.

E3 2015 is looking pretty packed at this point. What are your thoughts on Capcom’s line-up? Let us know in the comments.

Following the success of Resident Evil HD Remaster, which went on to become the highest selling digital title of all-time, Capcom has announced that it will be remastering Resident Evil 0 as well. Resident Evil 0 HD Remaster will be arriving on Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS3, PS4 and PC in early 2016. Check out the announcement for the same above courtesy of director Koji Oda and producer Tsukasa Takenaka.

Resident Evil 0 was an original title exclusively developed for the Nintendo GameCube and takes place prior to the events of the first game. It focuses on the origin of the T-Virus with medic Rebecca Chambers and ex-soldier Billy Coen working together to survive against various horrors. Resident Evil 0 is famous for being the first game in the series to introduce the dual-character mechanic and allowing players to switch between either character at any time.
