Resident Evil 2 News

Capcom has announced it's bringing Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil 3, and Resident Evil 7 to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles later this year.

For PS5 players, all three titles also feature DualSense support for Haptic Feedback and Adaptive Triggers.

Players who previously purchased Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil 3, or Resident Evil 7 on PS4 or Xbox One are eligible for an upgrade at no additional cost through the PS4 to digital PS5 upgrade option or Xbox Smart Delivery system.

The recent remakes of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 are now playable in VR thanks to the long-awaited release of the VR mod, which even features Resident Evil Village VR "in an early state" - although you'll need a decent PC to take advantage of it, not to mention nerves of steel.

While the first-person Resident Evil 7 got an official VR version and Resident Evil 4 just got a VR edition exclusively for Oculus Quest 2, the series generally shies away from VR versions - even the direct sequel to RE7, last year's Resident Evil Village, didn't have VR implemented.

Modders have already added first-person controls to most of the recent third-person Resident Evil games, but now there's the option for VR too. Modder Praydog has been working on a VR mod for the Resident Evil 2 and 3 remakes, along with 7 and even Village - as they all use the same RE engine - and it's now finally available to download on Github.

What if: Capcom gave Dino Crisis a Resident Evil-like remake?

Following the success of its Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 remakes, and news that a Resident Evil 4 remake is also on the way, I think it's about time Capcom resurrected another videogame series from its survival horror library: Dino Crisis. If it were possible to buy, download, and play it today then you could make an argument for it being one of the best horror games on PC, and it's a terrible shame that Capcom has seemingly left the series to go extinct.

Admittedly, it wasn't so long ago when the meatheaded lows of games like Resident Evil 6 and Dead Space 3 all but killed the genre. But PT and Alien: Isolation provided a spark of inspiration back in 2014, which was fanned by the likes of Resident Evil 7, The Evil Within 2, and Prey. Now survival horror games are as popular as they've ever been. Just imagine how big they'd be now if Silent Hills had actually been released.

It's not a question of whether or not Capcom can remake Dino Crisis - the recent Resident Evil remakes provide both the perfect template and technical foundation for such a project - so let's make the case for why it should. What if Capcom gave Dino Crisis a Resident Evil-like remake?
