Originally launched in 2012 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, Resident Evil 6 saw a remastered version in spring 2016 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. This new listing hints at an upcoming release not only for Xbox Series but potentially for PlayStation 5 as well, though no official confirmation has been made yet.

Gamers are curious about what enhancements the native version for current-generation consoles will bring compared to the previous remaster. The only noticeable change so far is in the game's description. While earlier versions were categorized as a "third-person shooter," the new listing now labels it as a "survival horror" game. We can expect more details to emerge during a full presentation.

Alongside this re-release, the gaming community is buzzing with anticipation for the announcement of the ninth installment in the Resident Evil series. Rumors suggest that this new game will be set four years after the events of Resident Evil: Village.
