Originally launched in 2012 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, Resident Evil 6 saw a remastered release in the spring of 2016 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. With this new listing for the Xbox Series, it's plausible that a re-release is in the works for the PlayStation 5 as well, though no official word has been given yet.
Enthusiasts are buzzing with speculation about what enhancements the native version for current-generation consoles will bring compared to the previous remaster. The only noticeable alteration in the game's description is the shift from being categorized as a "third-person shooter" to a "survival horror" game. As anticipation builds, more details are expected to emerge in a forthcoming full presentation.
In addition to this remaster, the gaming community is eagerly awaiting news on the ninth installment of the series. Rumors suggest that this next chapter will be set four years following the events of Resident Evil: Village, promising to continue the gripping narrative that fans love.
