Resident Evil Zero Remake expected release date and timeline
Capcom has not officially announced a specific launch date for Resident Evil Zero Remake; however, the roadmap for the franchise has become clearer through reliable leaks.
Essentially, Resident Evil Requiem (RE9) is set for early 2026, the Code: Veronica Remake is rumored for 2027, and the Resident Evil Zero Remake is expected to release in early 2028.Accordingly, you will likely have to wait until 2028 for the release of the Resident Evil Zero Remake.
Resident Evil Zero Remake gameplay
The original Resident Evil Zero was known for its Partner Zapping system, which allowed you to switch between Rebecca and Billy to solve puzzles and manage inventory. In the remake, you can expect this system to be completely modernized using the RE Engine. Here are other things that you can expect:
- Third-person perspective: Like the remakes of RE2, RE3, and RE4, the fixed camera angles will be replaced with an over-the-shoulder view. This will significantly improve combat.
- Inventory refinement: One of the most criticized aspects of the original was the lack of item boxes. This forced you to drop items on the floor. It is anticipated that the remake will be reintroducing the item box system or another way to manage the resources between the two characters that you will be able to use.
Resident Evil Zero Remake storyline and platforms
The Resident Evil Zero Remake will follow S.T.A.R.S. rookie Rebecca Chambers and convict Billy Coen as they investigate the Ecliptic Express train and a hidden Umbrella training facility. In the remake, the developers will be turning the train and the facility into atmospheric and photorealistic environments, pushing the boundaries of horror.Speaking of the platforms, the title is likely being developed for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch 2 and PC.
