Resident Evil Showcase date and time revealed, will feature Resident Evil 4 remake

The next Resident Evil Showcase will air on October 20th, Capcom has confirmed.

The publisher stated last month that it planned to show more of the Resident Evil 4 remake during an upcoming showcase, which has now been dated.

The show will begin at 3pm PDT / 6pm EDT / 11pm BST. As well as the Resident Evil 4 remake, it will also show Resident Evil Village Gold Edition and “more”,  according to a video promoting the stream.

It will be broadcast on the official Resident Evil YouTube and Twitch pages.

Announced earlier this year, the Resident Evil 4 remake will release on March 24, 2023 for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PS4 and PC via Steam. The game will also support PlayStation VR 2.

According to Capcom, Resident Evil 4 will preserve the essence of the original game, while “introducing modernized gameplay, a reimagined storyline, and vividly detailed graphics”.

As first reported by VGC back in 2020, the Resident Evil 4 remake has been in development since 2018, initially led by Osaka-based M-Two, but later taken over by mainline Resident Evil studio Capcom Division 1.

“We are excited to finally be able to talk about Resident Evil 4!” wrote Capcom promotion producer Edvin Edso when the game was revealed.

“Resident Evil 4 is a remake of the 2005 game Resident Evil 4. When it first came out, Resident Evil 4 revolutionized the Resident Evil franchise with its new game-style that combined action, shooting, and resource management elements, subsequently setting the standard for future Resident Evil titles.

“”This time, the game is being developed to achieve state-of-the-art quality for a survival horror suitable for 2023, while preserving the essence of the original game. We aim to make the game feel familiar to fans of the series, while also providing a fresh feeling to it.”
