In a development that’s sending shockwaves through the gaming world, multiple credible insiders have dropped explosive details on a long-rumored remake of Resident Evil: Code: Veronica, positioning it as Capcom’s next major entry in its blockbuster survival horror franchise. The project, described as “deep in development,” is allegedly eyeing a first-half 2027 launch, with an announcement potentially looming as early as this year’s 30th anniversary celebrations for the Resident Evil series.
The leaks, spearheaded by industry veterans Dusk Golem (@AestheticGolem1 on X) and NateTheHate2 – the latter crowned “Leaker of the Year” by Reddit’s r/GamingLeaksAndRumours in 2025 – paint a picture of a radically reimagined classic. First released in 2000 as a Dreamcast exclusive, Code: Veronica thrust players into the horror of Rockfort Island and the Antarctic base, following Claire Redfield’s desperate search for her brother Chris amid Umbrella’s viral chaos. It introduced iconic elements like the Ashford twins’ twisted eugenics plot, the brash teen Steve Burnside, and Albert Wesker’s signature sunglasses-and-superhuman flair.
Capcom has transformed the remake formula into a goldmine. The 2019 Resident Evil 2 overhaul sold over 13 million copies, Resident Evil 3 (2020) hit 9 million, and Resident Evil 4 (2023) surpassed 8 million – each blending fixed-camera terror with modern over-the-shoulder action. Fans have clamored for Code: Veronica for years, citing its canonical importance – it’s the bridge between Raccoon City and later entries – and its aging fixed-camera gameplay that screams for a RE Engine glow-up.
NateTheHate2 confirmed the bombshell on X: “Yes, Code Veronica is being remade & deep in development. Target of release is first half 2027.” This aligns seamlessly with Dusk Golem’s earlier teases, dating back to 2024, including a cryptic promise of a remake “starting with ‘(C)’ and ending with ‘(ode Veronica)'” set for reveal later in 2026. Dusk Golem, a horror aficionado with a storied track record – accurately spilling Resident Evil Requiem (RE9) details months ahead – elaborated on transformative changes.

Rockfort Island, once a claustrophobic prison, becomes semi-open world, letting Claire zip around on a repairable motorcycle – a nod to her resourceful survivalist vibe. The game positions itself as a “direct sequel” to RE2 Remake, ramping up grotesque zombie designs for pure dread, while retaining B-movie cheese. Wesker’s role explodes: HCF (Umbrella’s black-ops squad) drives the plot, with his showdown against Chris elevated to a playable boss battle – no more cutscene cop-out. Steve Burnside gets a personality tweak: less creepy, more awkwardly smitten teen. All original enemies return, redesigned; the Gulp Worm absorbs RE3‘s Grave Digger flair. Chris’s arc expands, but Claire owns the climax against Alexia Ashford. Controversially, the Ashfords’ scrapped Nazi ties get the green light, delving into eugenics horrors.
Development kicked off late 2022 under directors Yasuhiro Anpo and Kazunori Kadoi – veterans of RE2R and RE4R – putting it ahead of schedule while a rumored RE Zero remake lags to 2028. Platforms? Expect PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PC, and possibly Nintendo Switch 2, mirroring recent titles.
X is ablaze. “Fica tranquilo, remake do Code Veronica logo logo ta ai,” tweeted one fan, hyping Wesker’s upgrade. Another: “RUMOR | Nate The Hate confirms… first half of 2027,” racking up 600+ likes. Icy Veins buzzed: “Leaks suggest… more gruesome zombies, expanded story.” Push Square summed it: “All signs point to… PS5 Remake in 2027.”
This slots perfectly post-Resident Evil: Requiem (RE9), slated for February 27, 2026. Capcom’s remake spree – sparked by the 2002 GameCube RE1 overhaul – has revitalized the series, grossing billions. Code: Veronica, despite modest original sales under 3 million, boasts rabid demand; polls consistently rank it atop remake wishlists.
Capcom’s mum, but producer Masachika Kawata once dodged denial: “Everyone’s happy to see Chris and Claire together.” With the 30th anniversary March 22, expect fireworks – perhaps State of Play or Capcom Showcase teases.
Skeptics note leaks’ risks; RE5 remake hype fizzled. Yet convergence from Dusk Golem (RE Requiem scoop), NateTheHate (Silent Hill 2, FF7 Rebirth hits), and outlets like ScreenRant, GamingBible, and IGN screams legitimacy.
For Capcom, a Code: Veronica remake could shatter sales records, bridging remakes to sequels and fueling DLC/merch. Fans, brace: Rockfort’s calling, and it’s bigger, bloodier, Wesker-riddled.
