Resident Evil 2, 3, and 7 Getting PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC Visual Upgrade

I absolutely love the old Resident Evil games, if anything, I think they benefitted from the graphics of the era really well too, making them feel gritty. However, I must admit, the modern remakes are truly stunning and I’ve had a lot of fun with those too. Resident Evil 7 didn’t really hit the mark for me personally, it’s a bit too different from the ones I love. However, if you’re eager to play Resident Evil 2 Remake, Resident Evil 3 Remake or Resident Evil 7, then you may want to hold off just a little longer!

Resident Evil

Capcom has announced that Resident Evil 2 Remake, Resident Evil 3 Remake and Resident Evil 7 will all receive visual and graphical enhancements fairly soon! While they’ve not revealed what sort of upgrades and updates we can expect, I am eager to check them out. I mean, it’s not like the remakes are poor to look at already, so any increase in textures, resolution, post-processing, who knows, perhaps even some ray tracing, would most certainly be welcomed. Resident Evil Village does have ray-traced shadows already, so it’s not like they haven’t got this stuff working in-engine already, and I suspect AMD FSR would be added in too for good measure.

The update will launch later this year, albeit, they’ve not given us a date just yet. However, it’ll be coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, and they quickly followed up with another tweet that PC gamers will get the update too. The update will come at no additional cost on any platform.
