Resident Evil 4 is getting a remake, due out in 2022
Following the successes it's seen with the remakes of Resident Evil and Resident Evil 2, it was really only a matter of when Capcom would announce it was giving the remake treatment to Resident Evil 4 - and that was before the company had announced the Resident 3 remake, which came out April 3. Capcom has reportedly gone into 'full production' on a Resident Evil 4 remake release date, a game many consider to be the pinnacle of the series.
VGC has published details on the remake's production, which is being headed up by M-Two, a studio founded by former PlatinumGames boss Tatsuya Minami. Capcom will likely support the development of the Resident Evil 4 remake with assistance from other in-house studios, and the game is reportedly scheduled for release some time in 2022.
The original Resident Evil 4 director Shinji Mikami was approached by Capcom to direct the remake, but he had to turn the role down as he is currently working on GhostWire: Tokyo for Bethesda. However, VGC's sources say he has blessed off on the remake and is providing "informal advice" to the development leads.
