Has a Hint Been Given for a Resident Evil 1 Remake?

Another exciting rumor has come to the fore for the fans of the Resident Evil series. Nicole Tompkins, who voiced the character Jill Valentine, caught the attention of the players by saying “it’s good to be Jill again” in a post she made on her Instagram account. The fact that Capcom has not officially announced a new remake makes this message even more mysterious. Resident Evil 1 Remake rumors have been circulating for a long time.

Nicole Tompkins’ Cryptic Message for Resident Evil 1 Remake

Although Tompkins’ post does not directly say Resident Evil 1 Remake, players think this sentence points to a project. As you may remember, Capcom previously remade the original Resident Evil game for the GameCube and then released remaster versions for various platforms. However, with the modern remake versions of Resident Evil 2, 3 and 4, it is now more likely that the first game will be remade in a similar way.

In recent years, Capcom has attracted great attention by successfully re-presenting past games in the Resident Evil series with modern graphics. Resident Evil 2 Remake in particular received high marks from both players and critics. Considering these successes, it seems inevitable that the first game, which was the starting point of the series, will join this trend.

Although there is no other leak or explanation other than Tompkins’ message, such social media clues have come before official announcements in previous games. It is known that Capcom resorts to such promotional strategies from time to time. It is also thought that a possible Resident Evil 1 Remake developed with the RE Engine could bring a modern touch to the atmosphere of the series.

It will not be a surprise if a Resident Evil 1 Remake announcement comes at events such as Summer Game Fest or Tokyo Game Show in the upcoming period. For now, this mysterious post by Nicole Tompkins has ignited the fuse of excitement.
