Resident Evil: Code Veronica Remake Gets First Reveal At Summer Game Fest

Resident Evil Requiem is only a few months old, but Capcom is already lifting the veil on its next game--the long-rumored https://www.gamespot.com/games/resident-evil-code-veronica/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Resident Evil: Code Veronica remake, now titled as simply Resident Evil Veronica.

Revealed at https://www.gamespot.com/articles/summer-game-fest-live-2026-all-the-biggest-announcements-and-games/">Summer Game Fest today, this new spin on the classic Resident Evil game follows https://www.gamespot.com/articles/resident-evil-zero-and-code-veronica-are-the-next-remakes-for-the-franchise-report/1100-6523753/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">months of rumors pointing to its existence.

Capcom has been fairly consistent with Resident Evil releases over the last couple of years, alternating between brand-new entries in the main series and remakes of the older games.

Resident Evil: Code Veronica has been conspicuously absent from the library of updated Resident Evil games, as release-wise, it was expected to arrive after 2020's Resident Evil 3 Remake.

Instead, Capcom followed that game up with Resident Evil Village in 2021, the remake of Resident Evil 4 in 2023, and this year's best-selling Resident Evil Requiem.

Originally released in 2000 for the Sega Dreamcast, the survival-horror game followed Chris and Claire Redfield on a new mission, several months after the Raccoon City Incident.

The game hasn't aged too well, thanks to its outdated gameplay mechanics, but its storyline, gothic themes, and memorable antagonists in the form of the Ashcroft Twins made it a cult classic.
