Capcom has approached fans for their opinions on what they would like to see from a remake of PS1 horror classic Resident Evil 2.
Posting on the game’s official Facebook page, Capcom’s R&D Division 1 thanked fans for their “continued support for the Resident Evil brand”, before acknowledging their “enthusiasm” for a Resident Evil 2 remake.
“Enthusiasm for a Resident Evil 2 Remake is something we’ve been hearing from you over the years, and has drawn some recent attention in the media,” said Capcom.
“However, as the team owns the RE brand, we’re not certain how we feel about this approach, and would like to ask your honest and frank opinion about the ‘Resident Evil 2 Remake’ and what the brand identity is supposed to be about?”
The most popular reply asks that Capcom creates a “a full remake along the same lines as the Resident Evil One remake”, featuring the “same style as Resident Evil 2 with newly done backgrounds”.
At the time of writing, Capcom’s post had received almost 15,000 likes from fans.
Capcom remade the original Resident Evil for GameCube back in 2001, before porting an HD version to PS3, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC earlier this year. The remaster soon became Capcom’s fastest-selling digital release, and has since sold over 1 million units worldwide.
A remastered HD version of Resident Evil Zero is also due for release on consoles and PC early next year.
