[RUMOR] Resident Evil 7 to be announced at this year's E3?

[T-hug]

Over at DualSHOCKERS there is a story about Resident Evil being anounced at E3 and it is to be an Xbox One exclusive.

From the DualSHOCKERS post:

There have been rumors floating around about the upcoming announcement of Resident Evil 7 at E3, and some voices even alleged that it would be a Xbox One exclusive. The latter won’t be the case according to an article on the website of the prominent Japanese Economic newspaper Sankei Shimbun.
The article mentions that for what PS4 games are concerned, Capcom plans to reveal an important game at E3, and that is expected to be Resident Evil 7. It also specifies that the sales expectations for the game are to sell over 5.6 million copies like its predecessor.

While only a PS4 version is named, the wording of the article does not suggest exclusivity. Considering that it’s a Japanese source, it’s most probable that the game will be multiplatform. It’s normal for Japanese articles to mention only PlayStation versions of titles they mention, especially on mainstream media.

E3 is right around the corner so what do you guys think? Are you ready for the next Resident Evil?
RE6 disappointed a lot of long term fans of the series so what would you like to see make a come back in RE7?

I hope it won't suck as much as 6. Or even 5.

We want a decent RE, Capcom! Damnit

Two thumbs way up!

Seriously, though... eh. The Resident Evil franchise is more like a zombie than its monsters now. Just let it die with whatever's left of its dignity.

Special editions incoming
Resident Evil 7: Michael Bay Directors Cut Game of the Year Edition

Please do a resident evil that has the moody pre rendered environments like in the remakes on the gamecube. Having these in 1080p which would allow unbelievable detail to go into the characters and enemies would be brilliant.

Well Crapcom has been known to goof

I'm actually excited to see where this one goes. While I do prefer the older RE titles, I did still enjoy 5 for what it was (and by that I mean it was a very well polished action game, just not a Resident Evil game). I think 6 could have been really good, but they just tried to do way too much at the same time. For that reason I think its understandable that it didnt really live up to what the older fans or the newer fans wanted. It was still an ok game, despite its flaws. I enjoyed my first run through of it and then never touched it again (despite having replayed all the others countless times). I think if Capcom just finally picks one direction for the series and sticks to it the game could be really great.
Capcom needs to give up trying to do everything. They need to either drop the long time fans entirely and make an action game, or drop their goal of mass market sales and make the game their fans of 20 years want.

It should be like RE4. Over the shoulder view and with dark rituals, foggy landscapes, creepy castles and no sun. Also Albert Wesker should magically return.

Yaaaawwwwwnnnnn.... Still waiting for the revival of Eternal Darkness or The Call of Cthulhu series. Resident Evil four I think was the closest this series ever got to the scares I got from those games, the rest of the series was just too comic booky for my horror tastes.

Well at least we have the Amnesia series.

Its really hard to be excited for this after 6. But Revelations was a fantastic game and i have a tiny slither of hope that someone in charge noticed that and decided to make it more like that. I will remain cautiously optermistic for this scenario but if i see any screenshots or videos of zombies with guns and doing anything even remotely call of duty-ish then im out.

previously in resident evil (morgan freeman's voice) ...i pray not to see any RE games any more..even revelations sucks..i gave new RE games a chance by looking at it form a new perspective and not looking and judging a game by comparing them to older games, and it still sucks. there, thats my opinion.

Two thumbs way up!

Seriously, though... eh. The Resident Evil franchise is more like a zombie than its monsters now. Just let it die with whatever's left of its dignity.

i agree.

Resident Evil is such a rad action game.

Resident Evil is such a rad action game.

what is rad action game?

 

[Clydefrosch]

an exclusive game from capcom? lol.

 

[Tom Bombadildo]

Huh. You'd think Capcom would cool it off with the Resident Evil series for a bit after the failure that was RE6.

Well, I hope they at least learned something...maybe...that'll make this one as good as 4.

 

[PolloDiablo]

I bet it's a mobile game
