TheResident Evil 4remake is officially coming to PlayStation 4, with more information on the game to come at a special showcase that Capcom is hosting in October. TheResident Evil 4remake has been rumored for years, but Capcom finally gave the project its official announcement this past June.After announcing theResident Evil 4remake, Capcom also confirmed its June 17, 2025 release date and that it would be launching for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X.
Capcom made no mention of older consoles, and so many assumed that theResident Evil 4remake would be a proper, next-gen only release. On one hand, this would mean theResident Evil 4remake wouldn’t be held back by the limitations of older consoles, but on the other hand, it would mean that some gamers would simply be missing out if they still haven’t been able to get their hands on a PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X.
