  • Capcom: Western-Developed Resident Evil Game "Absolutely" Possible



    05/28/2009 14:48

    By Stephen Johnson

    When asked by website Planet Resident Evil about the possibility of a Resident Evil game developed by a Western company, Chris Kramer, Senior Director of Communications and Community at Capcom, said it was "absolutely" possible that a Resident Evil game could come from the West.

    Capcom has already allowed a Western company to develop the latest Bionic Commando game as well as Dead Rising 2, and Kramer says there are more games in in store, including, perhaps, a Resident Evil game:

    "As we go forward and do more games along the lines of Bionic Commando, I think you're going to see the company open itself up more to developers outside of Japan. So is it possible that some day a Resident Evil game could be done by western developers? Absolutely. We don't have anything in the works now, but the kind of groundwork that has been laid by Resident Evil and Dead Rising 2 are definitely moving us and the company in a direction where those idea wouldn't be so foreign."

        Well I can see why some people wont like the idea (eg look what happened with silent hill...)

        But its not like the RE series hasnt already strayed from their roots. I wouldnt mind seeing what Capcom USA would do (out of curiosity)

          I'd like to see what Naughty Dog or even Digital Extremes could do with the license, personally.

              RE5 isn't too far removed from that as it is already.

                  I whole-heartedly disagree.

                    If a western developer can make a game better than RE5, then I definately think they should be given the opportunity.

                      I respectfully Disagree too...
                      Resident Evil will allways be Resident Evil!
                      Any TRUE FAN would agree with me.

                          If Resident Evil will always be Resident Evil, then surely it wouldn't matter if it was developed in Japan or in the west. Resident Evil will always be Resident Evil right? Regardless of where it was developed.

                          I think that a western developer could make a game at least as good, if not better in some regards. Some things in the series really stick out, because it's made in Japan and set in Amerca. The dialogue in parts, and some of the environments too (the layout of Raccoon city anyone?)
