On the occasion of the Tokyo Game Show 2020 that is taking place these days, Capcom held its own event lasting 50 minutes, during which he showed news and interviews with developers related to several of his titles in progress.
Among these could not fail to include Resident Evil Village: one of the most anticipated games of the company.
It emerged that Capcom would be in the research and development phase to try to understand how far the new title of the famous horror saga can be brought to the current generation of consoles.
In confirmation of this, Tsuyoshi Kanda, producer of Resident Evil Village, said:
Capcom wants to offer the best survival horror experience even in the current generation
In short, despite not being an official confirmation, there are chances that, after Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Horizon Forbidden West, another title announced for next gen may take a leap back in order to benefit from the huge installed base of the current generation.
Given the growing difficulties in falling within the ever-higher development costs, the 113 million PlayStation 4 and 48 million Xbox One present in the homes of the players must look really tempting.
Furthermore, traditionally, Japanese development studios have a greater propensity than Westerners to create cross-gen titles in periods of transition between one generation and another.
In short, if you are a fan of survival horror and do not intend to move to the next gen in a short time, you just have to cross your fingers.
► Resident Evil Village is an Adventure-type game developed and published by Capcom for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, it will be released in 2021
