Although Capcom hasn’t made any official announcements, there have been multiple rumors throughout the year suggesting that a remake of Resident Evil 4 is being worked on. Recently, a new piece of evidence was provided that potentially hints that the rumors may end up being true, and that the game is currently being worked on.
On Twitter, Nick Apostolides – voice actor for Leon Kennedy in the remake of Resident Evil 2 – posted a photo of himself in motion capture gear along with a message about how good it feels to get back to work. Additionally, Apostolides wrote that he had a “blast with some crazy people” on the project he was working on, and how he can’t wait to share more details about it.
One interesting thing to note is that one of the hashtags has “video games” in it, implying that the project revolves around an actual video game rather than a movie. Some feel this suggests that it could possibly be Resident Evil 4 Remake, but no other details were shared so the project could end up being anything.
If the voice actor is implying what fans think he is implying, the evidence strongly fits with more about a remake of Resident Evil 4. For example, in April reports surfaced suggesting that Capcom has started to work on the game, with Resident Evil 4 remake potentially releasing in 2022. Furthermore, the reports are backed up by three previous Resident Evil games that have received remakes: Resident Evil, Resident Evil 2, and Resident Evil 3.
Another note that is worth pointing out is that back in June, Shinji Mikami, director of the original Resident Evil 4, mentioned the rumors during an IGN interview. When asked about the rumors, Mikami said, “As long as it turns out good I have no issues with it.” Despite showing his support at the time, Mikami’s comments didn’t necessarily imply anything, and they neither confirmed nor denied the rumors.
Ultimately, Apostolides’ tweet may end up talking about a whole different game that has nothing to do with Resident Evil 4, such as the upcoming Resident Evil 8 or an entirely different game series in general. However, if the implication that it is indeed Resident Evil 4 Remake turns out to be true, not only will the rumors be confirmed, the game’s fans will get what they’ve been hoping for for a really long time.
A remake of Resident Evil 4 is rumored to be in development.
