Rumor: Resident Evil Zero and Code Veronica Remakes in the Works; RE9 Pushed to Late 2025/2026
Just a few weeks ago, we reported on a rumor that Resident Evil 9 was supposed to be revealed soon. Well, it seems the person who said that has backtracked, though not without mentioning that Resident Evil Zero and Resident Evil: Code Veronica remakes are in the works.
The rumor was mentioned by DuskGolem, who fired off a series of tweets explaining that Resident Evil 9 is now pushed to a late 2025/2026 release. In the same series of tweets, DuskGolem also mentions that a Resident Evil 5 remake is not in the works, which might surprise a lot of gamers who were expecting it after the excellent Resident Evil 4 remake.
(4/4) a remake of Resident Evil Zero & Code Veronica in development right now.
I’ve talked to many others behind the scenes about this at this point, it’s something I heard over a year ago, think it was going to get out whether I was the one to say it or not, & that’s about it.

(1/4) Fuck it, I’m choosing to be the one to burst the bubble in a bigger way of what’s going on with Resident Evil stuff.
First, I would wipe the expectations of RE9 being announced this summer period. The initial murmers I heard I now do believe are right, & RE9’s announcement
(2/4) is further away than this upcoming summer. Sorry for the back-and-forth on that, that’s my fault.
RE:1 Remake rumors are bullshit, as far as I know RE:1 is not in any form of development at all right now.
RE:5 is not actively in dev now either. It’s been funny seeing this
(3/4) be what people think is happening publicly.
RE9 is pushed back to late 2025/2026.
If everything I’ve heard is correct, which I fully believe it is, & I know others have hinted this & I’m not the first to say this publicly actually just its not caught on, there’s actually
(4/4) a remake of Resident Evil Zero & Code Veronica in development right now.

Same as with the previous RE9 rumor, none of the info here has been verified by Capcom, and as such , treat it with a bag of salt for now. That said, DuskGolem is somewhat reliable when it comes to horror gaming leaks, so we’re running this in good faith that they know something.
Resident Evil Zero was originally released back in 2002 for the Nintendo GameCube before being ported to every gaming platform under the sun, with the latest re-release in 2016. RE: Code Veronica was released for the Dreamcast in 2000, and oddly enough, the title hasn’t received a remake yet.
Hopefully, Capcom announces the remakes soon, since we’re left in the dark when it comes to Resident Evil game for the time being.
