Resident Evil Leaker Reverses Course on Code: Veronica Remake Claim

by

According to a trusted insider, there are rumors swirling about a high-budget remake of the game “Resident Evil Code: Veronica.” However, this latest report seems to contradict previous information from the same source regarding the remake of this classic game.

New details have emerged from Dusk Golem, a reliable source known for accurate Capcom leaks, who was the first to announce in May 2024 that Capcom was working on a remake of Resident Evil Code: Veronica.

Resident Evil Code: Veronica Remake May Have RE4-Like Budget After All

In a social media update on August 22nd, Dusk Golem indicated that there were rumors circulating about a potential remake of the game “Code: Veronica,” suggesting it could have a substantial budget similar to the remakes of “Resident Evil 2” and “Resident Evil 4.” This contrasts with their statement from September 2024, where they implied that the “Code: Veronica” remake might not be as grandiose as its counterpart for “Resident Evil 4.

Currently, Dusk Golem hasn’t explicitly discussed the budget of the rumored Code: Veronica remake. However, they hinted that future remakes might not match the grandeur of the highly praised Resident Evil 4 remake, which Capcom considers as the pinnacle of their remake projects. This implies that while the new Code: Veronica remake may not be on the same scale as Resident Evil 4, it could potentially be more ambitious than initially speculated. Similarly, for the unconfirmed Resident Evil Zero remake, Dusk Golem’s reporting since mid-2024 suggests a similar approach might be taken.

As a hardcore Resident Evil fan, I’m hyped about the chatter that the folks behind the fantastic Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 4 remakes are also handling the Code: Veronica remake! From what I’ve heard, we might even get our hands on a refreshed version of Resident Evil Zero before Code: Veronica graces our screens. Can’t wait to see how they bring these classic games back to life!

The popular video game franchise “Resident Evil” will mark its 30th anniversary in 2026. To honor this milestone, Capcom plans to release the ninth mainline installment titled “Resident Evil Requiem” on February 27. Previous reports suggest that the remake of “Resident Evil Zero” and “Requiem” may be completed around the same time. However, even if this is true, Capcom might delay the release of “REZ” as they typically avoid launching multiple significant series entries in the same year to maintain focus on each title’s quality.
