Fans ecstatic for Resident Evil 2, 3, and 7’s PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S upgrades

Resident Evil 2 and 3 remakes were released in 2018 and 2020, respectively, while RE 7 was launched in 2017. Although all these three titles look quite good already, the next gen versions always come across as an icing on the cake. And that’s exactly the reason why the makers just revealed that they will receive more visual enhancements in 2022.

The upgrades will be released at no additional cost also for those having a PC.

Speaking of the Resident Evil 2 Remake, then it stars Claire Redfield as one of the main protagonists, alongside Lyon Kennedy. In the 2018 hit game, her appearance was praised a lot by the franchise’s community.

On the other hand, Resident Evil 3 Remake stars iconic Jill Valentine as the central character. She’s the driving force in the plot of the entire game and makes it a compelling title to dive into. And not to mention Nemesis, of course.

Resident Evil 7 is the entry that takes place before the events of last year’s blockbuster RE 8: Village. In this 2017 installment, Ethan and Mia Winters are seen trying their best to survive the nightmare world of the game.

Meanwhile, the fans seem to be excited following Capcom‘s announcement of the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S upgrades.

The majority of them are delighted to see that these games are still getting support and that, too, for next gen consoles.

“I’ll take any excuses to play again,” wrote one excited fan.
