Resident Evil is relevant once again. This is thanks mostly to back-to-back-to-back hit releases in Resident Evil 7, as well as the Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 remakes. Not to mention, the upcoming Resident Evil Village is shaping up to be a sure hit, having already spawned memes.
Add to that the fact that a series of new Netflix animated shows and a live-action film is all in the works and, understandably, Resident Evil's popularity is sky-high.
With that being said, this resurgence in popularity has led to many fans speculating that maybe it's time for Capcom to re-work arguably the franchise's best title.
Resident Evil 4 remains a fan favorite and is beloved by critics and if rumors or leaks are to be believed, it's the next big Resident Evil game that's set to receive the remake treatment.
Is a Resident Evil 4 Remake In the Works?
As of the time of writing, there's no official news as yet that Capcom is working on a Resident Evil 4 Remake. However, multiple sources have confirmed its existence. This includes VGC, which wrote that it was in development back in April 2020.
Adding fuel to the ever-churning rumor mill was the same leaker who revealed details regarding Resident Evil 8, Dusk Golem.
