After yesterday’s news of a Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil: Code Veronica X remake collection being featured in the latest issue of Famitsu got out, Capcom has come out today and officially announced that the two games will be getting the HD upgrade.
They won’t be coming in a retail package like every other HD remake has been doing though. The titles will instead be available for download on Xbox LIVE and the PlayStation Network.
"To kick off the 15th anniversary of Resident Evil®, Capcom®, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games today announced that the highly acclaimed Resident Evil® 4 and Resident Evil Code: Veronica® X will be released as downloadable titles for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system," read the very brief press release. "Scheduled for release this fall, both titles have been enhanced with upgraded visuals as they make their debut on high-definition consoles."
With the 15th Anniversary of Resident Evil not officially occurring until Tuesday, perhaps more details on the remakes will be unveiled then. For now, series fans and gamers everywhere will have to just be satisfied with the knowledge that it’s coming.
