Resident Evil 2: Dual Shock Ver.

Capcom has revealed a Resident Evil: Code Veronica remake, delighting fans of the franchise watching this year's Summer Game Fest livestream.

The 2026 Summer Game Fest showcase kicked off with another Resi remake.

Despite being in plenty of spin-offs and crossovers, Claire Redfield is in barely any of the mainline Resident Evil games. After a long time away, RE Veronica is finally set to give Claire her due.

Capcom reveals new details about Resident Evil Veronica, including the fate of Claire, Steve Burnside, and first-person camera view.

Just like (well, not just like) the original 2000 game, Resident Evil: Veronica will be played from a third-person perspective. The news was shared with GameSpot during a group Q&A session at Summer Game Fest, which is also where Capcom officially announced the game to the public. The original Resident Evil: Code Veronica was also played in third-person--just like most of the older Resident Evil games--but it utilized the clunkier "tank" controls of the PlayStation originals. For Resident Evil: Veronica, GameSpot was told the closest gameplay corollary would be the Resident Evil 2 remake.
