Q: Has Capcom officially announced or hinted at a Resident Evil 5 remake?

A: No, Capcom has not officially announced or hinted at developing a Resident Evil 5 remake. However, there are several convincing elements and precedents, such as the remake of the first four numbered Resident Evil titles, that suggest a fifth one could follow.

Q: What in-game hints suggest a possible Resident Evil 5 remake?

A: In the Resident Evil 4 remake and the Separate Ways DLC, there are scenes involving Wesker, the main antagonist in RE5, that hint at his significant role in future events. The camera revealing Africa on Wesker’s screen and his possession of Krauser’s corpse, which could play into RE5’s events, are notable hints, as the original Resident Evil 5 is set in Africa.

Q: Have there been any other hints or indications from Capcom regarding future remakes in the Resident Evil series?

A: Users have datamined unused models of Wesker, leading to speculation about a reference to Code Veronica. Capcom stated in October 2022 that it had no plans of remaking Code Veronica but remained open to the possibility if the opportunity arises. Given these hints and statements, several routes are possible for Capcom’s series of remakes, with a Resident Evil 5 remake seeming the most likely.
