Resident Evil

Developers Capcom, GOG Publisher Capcom

Resident Evil stands as a foundational entry in survival horror, establishing the template for resource management and puzzle-solving that defined the genre across its 1996 debut on Saturn, PC, and PlayStation. The franchise has since evolved into a multimedia phenomenon spanning films, remakes, and spin-offs.

The series remains in active development across multiple fronts. Capcom is reportedly expanding its approach to DLC, aiming for more substantial post-launch content with greater length and scope. A remake is said to have entered pre-production in late 2025, signaling continued investment in revisiting the core IP. Beyond the main releases, the franchise is branching into manga adaptations of recent CG films, while the community continues engaging with both official re-releases and community-inspired projects that draw on Resident Evil's core design principles.
