According to the report, the remake of Resident Evil 0 is being developed under the codename Chamber, likely a reference to one of the protagonists, Rebecca Chambers. Voice acting and performance capture have also been underway as far back as 2024.

Among the actors working on the Resident Evil 0 remake is Jon McLaren, who has previously worked on several major video game releases, including Far Cry 5, and as protagonist Star-Lord in Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy. The actor has also noted the project on his resume, listing it as Project Chamber. While this has been by no means confirmed as of yet, McLaren is likely playing the role of Resident Evil 0’s other protagonist, Billy Coen.

While the Resident Evil 0 remake will likely feature much of the same central story as the original, the report alleges that Capcom is going to expand on its narrative a bit. One example of this narrative expansion is the train conductor, whose role is said to be much larger than it was in the original.

It is worth noting that the report still indicates that the Resident Evil 0 remake is still quite some time away from release. Another report from last month indicates that Capcom plans to release the remake after the rumoured Resident Evil – Code: Veronica remake, which reportedly is targeting Q1 2027. Resident Evil 0’s remake, on the other hand, is apparently aiming for a 2028 release window.

With Code: Veronica remake allegedly closer to release, more recent rumours have largely revolved around the title. A report from August, for instance, has indicated that Albert Wesker—the primary antagonist behind several games in the series—will have an expanded role in the story of the remake. This means that things like his combat unit will be a “main plot point”, and the character himself will have “a bigger role in the story”.

While these remakes are simply rumours for the time being, Capcom has confirmed that the next release in the franchise is Resident Evil Requiem, which is coming to PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S and Nintendo Switch 2 on February 27, 2026. Leading up to this release in a few months, the company has been revealing quite a few details about it, including the fact that its boss fights will be closer in style to what we saw back in the original Resident Evil and its sequel.

“Of course, there will be boss battles,” explained director Koshi Nakanishi. “However, rather than defeating enemies in a flashy manner as you progress through the game, like in games that emphasize gun shooting action, the style is more like Resident Evil and Resident Evil 2, where players expand their exploration area in a closed space and overcome obstacles using their wits.”

Without further ado, let’s get started.

#20. DEREK SIMMONS (RESIDENT EVIL 6 – ADA’S CAMPAIGN)

Resident Evil 6 is no stranger to criticism, but while the parts of the game that series fans hate most are those that are a bit too ridiculously explosion-y, the final boss fight against Simmons in Ada’s campaign could have used with some of that. The biggest sin that this boss commits is that it’s dull- it’s easy to settle into a superficial pattern and make your way through a significant portion of the fight just going through the motions, without any real challenge or engagement.

The First Zombie Encounter- Resident Evil 1

This is where it all started. Alpha Team takes refuge in a mysterious mansion after a pack of ravenous dogs kills one of their members. From there, the player controls either Chris Redfield or Jill Valentine. Upon exploring the mansion, they see it – a zombie, munching on a body and slowly rising to face them, its mangled face apparent. As far as moments go, this would define the horror franchise for years to come.

#13. T-091

APPEARANCES: Resident Evil: Dead Aim

When the series’ lore itself tells you that the T-091 was, more or less, a failure, you can’t help but agree. Created by Umbrella through an experiment that saw them make a Tyrant with both, the t-Virus and the G-Virus, the T-091 turned out to be not at all what they were expecting. It did not produce a bio-electrical current, which they wanted it to, and its heart stuck out its back, which made it much more vulnerable than any other Tyrant model. It did, however, have tentacles instead of claws, which sort of set it apart in an interesting way. Anyway, given the fact that Dead Aim was a light gun shooter, battles against the T-091 weren’t all that challenging, especially given the fact that it had a pretty obvious weak point.

All aboard? Alright then. Choo-choo.

NOTE: There will be spoilers ahead.

SPIDER-MAN

Spider-Man, of course, is closely associated with trains in media thanks to the wallcrawler’s exploits in the movies, and Insomniac’s 2018 title paid full homage to that. Spidey’s fight against Mister Negative in a train barrelling through New York subway was brief, but it was tense and exciting. Of course, it also gets points for recreating bits of the train sequence from Spider-Man 2 in its own humourous way.

Capcom had announced earlier last year that it’d be bringing not one, not two, but three Resident Evil titles to the Nintendo Switch, and now, they’ve announced the exact release dates for all three ports as well. Resident Evil 0, Resident Evil HD Remaster and Resident Evil 4 will all be available for the hybrid platform on May 21st. You can start pre-ordering all three on February 28th.

While European players can purchase all three games separately through the Nintendo eShop, North American players have another option. Resident Evil Origins Collection, which bundles Resident Evil 0 and HD Remaster together, will be available at retail. Of course, you can still purchase all three titles digitally on the North American eShop.

All three games are available on a plethora of platforms already. Resident Evil 0 was ported over to the Xbox 360, PS3, Xbox One, PS4, and PC in 2016. Resident Evil 4 has been available on pretty much ever single platform since its initial launch in January 2005 for the Nintendo GameCube. Meanwhile, Resident Evil HD Remaster debuted on PC, Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS3, and PS4 in January 2015.

Resident Evil is all the rage right now, thanks to the recently released (and absolutely incredible) Resident Evil 2. But even though Nintendo Switch players might not be able to experience the recent remake on their platform, there’s still some good Resident Evil stuff coming up on Nintendo’s console-handheld hybrid.

Last year, Capcom announced that the HD remasters of Resident Evil, Resident Evil 0, and Resident Evil 4 would be coming over to the Nintendo Switch in 2019, but since then, we haven’t really heard much about it. If you’re wondering when these might be released (or when we might at least get details on launch dates), you don’t have to wait long. Capcom’s community manager recently said on Twitter that details on the Switch ports will be coming at the end of this month.

Resident Evil Remake and Resident Evil 4 are two of the best games in the franchise, and Switch owners will doubtless be excited about playing them. Resident Evil 4 also has been ported to every single console that has ever existed (some say you can even play it on your microwave), so it’s a little surprising that we’ve had to wait this long to get a Switch port. As for Resident Evil 0, it’s a weird one, but it’s not the worst game in the world, so give that a go as well, if you haven’t done so already.

Stay tuned for more updates on their Switch ports.

We'll have more details about the Switch ports at the end of Feb 🙂 stay tuned!

You already knew this would happen, but it’s great to have confirmation nonetheless—Capcom has announced that Resident Evil 0, the and the original Resident Evil are going to be coming to the Nintendo Switch in 2019.

All these titles are already available on PS4, Xbox One, and PC, but this marks the first time they are meaningfully available portably, so I’m sure there will be many who will be more than happy to spend money on them for the umpteenth time. Not many other details are currently available—no pricing, no specific release order, no release date, nor even an announcement of whether the games will be available digitally, or at retail as well. Or, most significantly, if the Resident Evil release is for the remake or the original.

If you’re not on Switch, and want some Resident Evil action for yourself, do make sure to check out the latest gameplay video for Resident Evil 2, which launches next year for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.

Capcom’s remasters of old Resident Evil games continue to be a success- the Resident Evil 0 remaster that they launched earlier this year for Xbox 360, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, and PC has shipped over 1.1 million copies worldwide, the company announced in their earnings report today.

This puts the remaster within touching distance of the original Resident Evil 0, which sold 1.3 million copies worldwide when it launched on the Gamecube. It also means that the game has managed to sell 300,000 copies in the last three months, since it was sitting at 800,000 copies sold worldwide at the end of March- selling 100,000 copies a month isn’t half bad for a remaster of a decade old game.

Going forward, Capcom has Resident Evil 7, the next evolution of the franchise, as well as a remake of Resident Evil 2, in the pipeline, so fans of the franchise should find plenty to play- and that isn’t counting some of the less desirable Resident Evil products, like Umbrella Corps.
