When Resident Evil 4 Remake Is Coming To PC & Xbox Series X/S
Capcom announced that the Resident Evil 4 remake is coming, but it was revealed during Sony's State of Play event, which gives the impression that the game is going to be a PS5 exclusive for its 2023 release date. It's rare for the big third-party developers to offer full console exclusives, but timed-exclusivity deals are a growing trend, as has been the case for games like FF7 Remake on consoles since it launched in 2020. Resident Evil 4 will be a massive game, but does Sony have big enough pockets to keep it from releasing on PC and Xbox?

This became increasingly less true over time, with the game available on over thirteen different platforms, via a modern remaster that cleaned up the visuals. The most recent of these ports is the well-regarded Resident Evil 4 VR on Oculus Quest 2, which did an amazing job adapting the game to the VR format. Fans have joked that Resident Evil 4 would continue to be ported to every system until the end of time, and the announcement of the remake hasn't done much to deter this idea, as Capcom loves its ports.
