So, Capcom finally showed off the Resident Evil Veronica remake – which, as a long-time fan, I’ve been waiting for forever! – and the producer, Yoshiaki Hirabayashi, just dropped some cool news. He was talking to WCCFTech and said that the same awesome teams who brought us the Resident Evil 2 Remake and Resident Evil 4 Remake are now working on this one. He didn’t want to give away too much, but knowing those teams are behind it definitely gets me hyped!
When asked about the progress of the Resident Evil Veronica remake, Hirabayashi playfully stated that CAPCOM likes to keep some things under wraps, so details would remain secret for now. He did reveal that the development team includes members who previously worked on the successful remakes of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 4, and they began working on Veronica as development on RE4 was finishing up.
Hirabayashi also confirmed that Resident Evil Veronica is being directed by Yasuhiro Anpo, with Kazunori Kadoi handling associate director duties. He brought up the fact that both have worked together in the past on the critically-acclaimed remakes of Resident Evil 2 and 4, and as such, have plenty of experience in figuring out how classic games can be brought up to modern standards.
“Most of the direction is centralized around a team led by Director Yasuhiro Anpo and Associate Director Kazunori Kadoi, who previously headed the RE2 and RE4 remakes,” he said. “With that said, it is a massive team effort involving many individuals. There are other team members who share high-level responsibilities alongside the directors, and I hope we can introduce them to you at a later time.”
Resident Evil Veronica was unveiled over the weekend with a cinematic trailer from the perspective of protagonist Claire Redfield. In the trailer, Claire is in a French city as part of her attempts to find the whereabouts of her brother – Chris Redfield – who went missing after the events of the original Resident Evil. Shortly after entering an apartment that might have been where he was staying, Claire hears a knock on the door, and on opening it, she’s detained by an unknown person.
The trailer didn’t really reveal any gameplay details. While it may have indicated that the title might use the first-person perspective, Hirabayashi has confirmed that this is not the case, and revealed that the gameplay will use a third-person camera. He has also confirmed that the gameplay loop will be similar to the one in Resident Evil 2 Remake, which means plenty of resource management and a sense of dread throughout the survival horror experience.
The original Resident Evil – Code: Veronica let players control both Claire and Chris. The recent trailer for Resident Evil Veronica doesn’t say if Chris will also be a playable character this time. If he is, the game will likely tell its story in a similar way to this year’s Resident Evil Requiem.
Resident Evil Veronica is being developed for PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch 2.
