Video game retailers have been spotted advertising the upcomingResident Evil 4remake for Xbox One, even though the highly-anticipated survival-horror game has not actually been announced for the platform. When Capcom first announced theResident Evil 4remake, it was said to be a next-gen only release on consoles, aiming to launch on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X. Since then, however, Capcom has expanded theResident Evil 4remake’s horizons to include PlayStation 4.
When Capcom confirmed that theResident Evil 4remake would be coming to PS4, it generated a mixed response from the community. On one hand, those that have yet to upgrade to a PS5 were happy that they would be able to playResident Evil 4remake without having to purchase a new console. On the other hand, some were disappointed that this would make theResident Evil 4remake yet another cross-gen release, meaning it wouldn’t take full advantage of the new hardware. Xbox gamers, meanwhile, have just been confused as to why theResident Evil 4remake is coming to PS4, yet an Xbox One version of the game hasn’t been announced.
