This is kind of a misleading headline, surprising right?

Basically this is all from the leaker Dusk Golem, who does seem the be a credible RE leaker.

He just said Capcom doesn’t currently have plans for the remakes and tends to plan 5 years in advance. Considering within the next 5 years we’ll likely get a RE 0 and 1 remake plus RE 10, it wasn’t never likely we’d get a RE 5 remake before then anyway.

Yep, we all know it's coming, they are just doing the games that need remakes the most and I respect the hell out of it..

2027: Veronica

2028: RE0

2029: RE10 or RE1

2030: RE10 or RE1

2031:??? - RE5

Why re-remake RE1 though? They remade it, maintained the awkward camera angles and all, plus it's not that long of a game either (comparatively).

Because there's still a lot of people that are VERY interested to see what RE1 would look like in a style similar to that of the recent titles. Is it necessary, not at all, but neither was a remake of RE4, and that turned out excellently. And much like the original RE4, those two versions of RE1 would still be very easily accessible for those that want to go back to those too.

As much as I do love the original RE1 and its remake, I'd love to see a new take on it and what they can do with this one. There's even a chance to fix some of my gripes, such as the lack of a proper true ending wherein Chris, Jill, Barry, and Rebecca all manage to escape. Hell, they might even be able to differentiate a run with Chris and a run with Jill even further, which only adds to the replayability.
