Man, I didn't even think of the Outbreak games. I've never played them. If Capcom rereleased them on PC, I could finally do so, and in multiplayer.
That would be fantastic.

Capcom teasing Classic Resident Evil ports?
- Thread starter Jawmuncher
- Start date
I would love it if they rereleased Outbreak. I missed it the first time and would love to try it.
We are not getting an old game compilation. But I can certainly say for sure. We will be getting either a new game mode for Resident Evil Village with Multiplayer or we are going to get a new RE game announcement with multiplayer in it. Reason why, is because Capcom last night sent out emails to Resident Evil Ambassadors about signing up for an upcoming beta for PS4/(Pro) and Xbox One. No mention about Xbox Series X|S or PS5.
In the email they said that they'll be revealing it next Thursday during their RE Showcase.

"mess" smh do you have any idea how fantastic are 2 and 3 on Dolphin?
You don't even need to do anything, they already give you the custom Dolphin build, you only need the game.
Outbreak deserves another chance and I would love to buy the originals on Xbox when I eventually get the X if they're not already on that marketplace.
I'd be down for PS1 1-3 again, but unless they do some serious updates to them they're almost painful to look at on a HDTV.
Outbreak games only came out on PS2 and have never been officially re-released anywhere else
I'm expecting ports of the originals as well. It'll be a low cost and high payoff way for them to get some money off the old games while keeping the franchise in the average consumers mind towards the buildup of re8
That'd be great but I don't want to get excited.
Love the originals as much as the remakes and would love for them to be more accessible.

Dammit, why did I have to see this gif? Now I'm on YouTube watching Katy Perry.

The Dolphin upscaled versions of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 are so f'ing good.
I wish they would as no remake replaces the original entirely in my mind. I don't think this is teasing anything like that though.
As it is I'm just hoping RE1 Directors Cut could one day get get the same modding treatment 2 and 3 have had with those dolphin upscales.

I'll no doubt buy them anyway if this ever comes to fruition, but I really hope Capcom put in the extra work to machine upscale the backgrounds. Whether it was due to technology of the time or incompetence as they had lost/destroyed the original assets, the way they treated the backgrounds in the HD Remaster of RE1 was criminal.
Also, Type C Gamecube controls (movement on triggers) is a must, by far the best way to play the older games.

They sold quite well on PS3.
Both versions of 2 and 3 trounce the sales of Dragon's Dogma. And they're doing both. Besides, DD and RE are different teams entirely. DD is like DMC now, it only happens when Itsuno is available.

I think the most convincing part of the evidence brought up here is that the assets in the gif have been upscaled which seems like an odd thing to do just for a little social media posts...
Not like the social media or PR teams would be able to remaster those assets from the old game themselves.

Capcom has been focusing a lot on rereleasing old classic games of theirs in great collections the last couple of years. I'm sure they've seen success with those and are probably now looking to do the same with their early 3D games starting with Resident Evil!
Well for some people the acquisition and installation of roms, emulators, and system specific builds is messy, yes. Much messier than purchasing a tailored EXE. 😆"mess" smh do you have any idea how fantastic are 2 and 3 on Dolphin?

I really hope so. Especially with AI upscaled backgrounds, that would be spectacular. However, I think this is reading too deeply and isn't going to amount to much. I'm sure there will be some legacy material coming back but probably not OG versions of 1-3/CV.
I mean they did it for Street Fighter's 30th Anniversary so I don't see why they wouldn't do it for RE's 25th.
Capcom love ports, I think RE's 25th anniversary would be a great time to release a collection of the OGs, plus when you have such radical remakes with RE2 and RE3 it's good to have the originals available for people to buy so that they don't get replaced.
I hope it's the Outbreak games with online support. I play these games on the PCSX2 emulator and they look great.
Imagine if it had better textures and stuff...would be amazing. +_+
Just a save/ink ribbon reference to me!
- Isn't that easy to achieve with emulators nowadays?
- Adding a logo to a video doesn't sound all that difficult to do.

I've requested them on those surveys they've sent out, I can get Code Veronica on Xbox but it would be nice to get the original versions of 1, 2, and 3 as well.
That's more than what I expected, Capcom getting the big guns out next week.
Considering what they did for Street Fighter's 30th Anniversary, the multiple Mega Man collections, Arcade Beat'em Up, etc, etc, I'd be surprised if they didn't have an OG trilogy compilation coming.
