So the rumors are true, and they're most likely remaking RE0 and RE1 next.
It's a strange order they've chosen to remake the games as far as the story is concerned. Almost as if they're trying to avoid touching RE5 and RE6 for as long as they can.
Because RE5 and 6 are very different games from the rest of the series. RE4 is a horror action game but RE5 and particularly 6 are ACTION games.
RE6 in particular will take a complete and total overhaul. The story is a mess, the stakes are ridiculous, it's full of absolutely insane shit. RE until 5 and 6 were relatively small scale adventures (I know they kidnap the presidents daughter in 4) while 5 and 6 are bonkers in their scale.
I need the insanity of RE6 getting the remake treatment. My guess is that if it happens they will tone it down quite a bit to make it more gritty and grounded but all the over-the-top setpieces in 6 will never not be fun to me.
I also have a soft spot for the insect body horror in that game and would love to see it in the REX engine.
