Earlier today at an event in Japan, Capcom confirmed Resident Evil 0, a remastered version of the popular prequel to the original title in the Resident Evil series, is currently in development. The game is planned for release on the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC in early 2016.
The announcement comes after the success of the Resident Evil HD Remaster released earlier this year.

Original Director Koji Oda and additional staff are returning for the development of this new remastered version. Capcom will be sharing more information on the upcoming release in the coming weeks but you can check out what Producer Tsukasa Takenaka and Director Koji Oda have to say about the project in the following video.

Oh, not again.
Remasters are Evil: Zero (originality)

I think I still have a gamecube copy of RE0 but I mainly only went through the motions with this game as I was playing all the ones I could on the GC. Might have to give this version a go when it appears.

Capcom logic
Remaking a game a game = good
Making a new megaman game = bad

It was teased some months ago with the RE1 PS4 Theme.
I'd play it on PC but they make it unplayable on older GPUs.... guess i'll stick with PS3.

But I hate RE: ZERO!

Because the Wii U is weaker than the Xbox 360, there's no port

No, its because it sells like shit.

Why would Capcom want to make a new megaman game?

No, its because it sells like shit.

Sarcasm detectors have been known to malfunction late at night it seems.

So RE Zero Zero?

True, there is no other way to re-invent a 2d game. If the gameplay is the same then I'd rather play it on emulators.

Your right. Its not like there are a bunch of people who feel like they killed him off. Capcom has been great with mega man over the past 5 years

Well, Capcom did kill off Megaman Legends 3, surely, that can't be a good sign of things to come.

Well Legends 3 wasn't going to be important anyway. Not like it was going to conclude a series which was on a cliff hanger for 10 years

Trying to appease the megaman fanbase is not something I would like to do. Equally I would not disagree that there are many vocal fans of megaman, whether than translates into a profit, much less a profit worth tasking your limited amount of programmers to obtain, is a different matter though.

 

[Clydefrosch]

how do they think this could possibly sell without upgrading the gamemechanics to be more like killzone or any other cool first person shooter?

Agreed
Just saying that i personally hate how companies remake games rather than making original ones although it is a much better business descension to remake as it costs a lot less
