Resident Evil 6 first hit the market in 2012 on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, followed by a remastered version in spring 2016 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. This latest development hints at a possible re-release not just for the Xbox Series but potentially for the PlayStation 5 as well, though no official confirmation has been released yet.

Gamers are eager to learn what distinguishes this native version for current-gen consoles from the earlier remaster. The only noticeable difference so far is in the game's description. While previous versions were categorized as a "third-person shooter," the new listing labels it as a "survival horror" game. We can expect more details to emerge during an upcoming full presentation.

Alongside this remaster, the gaming community is buzzing with anticipation for the announcement of the ninth installment in the Resident Evil series. Rumors suggest that this new game will be set four years after the events of Resident Evil: Village.
