Resident Evil 7 and Devil May Cry 5 might be re-released for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, according to an industry insider.
When Twitter user GrandCookieZX asked for an update on whether Devil May Cry 5 and Resident Evil 7 would come to the next generation of consoles, Dusk Golem had an interesting answer. They said this is a hunch that they have, but also that one of their sources confirmed to them that this is happening. Peculiar, isn’t it?
Dusk Golem is a reliable source of information on the industry’s inner workings, and in the past, they’ve been correct regarding the Resident Evil 3 remake and the details of Resident Evil 8. They’ve also made claims about a “soft reboot” of Silent Hill, which Konami has rebuffed repeatedly, so we should still consider their words carefully.
A bit of both. However, I’ve had clarification since then on what the plan is for the current RE Engine games & next-gen, but I won’t be sharing it for now. I gave the okay for the Declassified people to publish it in a few weeks time, not gonna’ step on their toes.

“I’ve had clarification since then on what the plan is for the current RE Engine games & next-gen, but I won’t be sharing it for now,” they continued. “I gave the okay for the Declassified people to publish it in a few weeks time, not gonna step on their toes.”
Capcom adores to port its portfolio to new platforms, and with the gooey and grisly Resident Evil Village coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, it’s not outside of the realm of possibility. We’ll keep you in the loop once we know more.
