Resident Evil 7 could be out before March 31, 2017, Capcom has teased while talking about its line-up for the current financial year.

“In the fiscal year ending March 31, 2017, the Company is scheduled to release… Resident Evil Umbrella Corps (for PlayStation 4 and PC) of the Resident Evil series, which marked its 20th anniversary in March 2016, as warm up to the full-scale offensive planned for the second half of the year.”

Capcom doesn’t actually mention Resident Evil 7, but what else could the publisher be referring too as part of the “full-scale offensive”? We know a full remake of Resident Evil 2 is coming, but Capcom’s secrecy suggests something yet to be officially announced.
