Rumour: ‘Resident Evil 3’ Remake Co-Developer M-Two Working on Another Capcom Remake?
Capcom’s remake of Resident Evil 3 (read our review here) isn’t even out yet, but that’s not stopping the rumour mill from churning for the title’s co-developer, M-Two.
According to an article by VGC Report on the co-dev being helmed by former Platinum CEO Tatsuya Minami, who was a “key figure” behind the RE3 remake, M-Two is currently working “as the primary developer on a larger remake project” for Capcom. This goes hand in hand with rumours last year that Capcom was looking at other projects for the remake treatment, along with registering new trademarks.
Adding fuel to the rumours are tweets by noteworthy Twitter source Nibellion, as well as Dusk Golem, the latter who had tweeted out rumours of Resident Evil 8 being in development.
In their latest series of tweets, DuskGolem1 reiterates that the 2021 Resident Evil project (which is is not one of the Sega Dreamcast’s Code Veronica or the cult classic Dino Crisis) has been in development for a while. “The 2021 RE game started development in late 2016, by the time it releases it’ll have been in development for 4-4.5 years.”
That still doesn’t answer the question of just what Capcom is planning to remake with M-Two at the helm. Of course, this once again is all speculation and rumours. Then again, Capcom have teased fans before…
Resident Evil 3, together with Resident Evil Resistance, is due out April 3 for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
Retroware surprised everyone last year with the announcement that they’re working on a throwback beat-’em-up based on the Toxic Crusaders cartoon. Grab your mop and get ready: the side-scrolling beat ’em up game is heading our way later this year.
Toxic Crusaders is now available to preorder on Steam, with the game set for Fall 2024 release. Exact date TBA.
Developer and publisher Retroware has teamed up with Troma Entertainment to bring the characters from the 1991 cartoon “Toxic Crusaders” back, for an all-new, all-action beat ’em up for one to four players.
In the game, “When the evil Dr. Killemoff attacks, only one team of hideously deformed creatures of superhuman size and strength stands between him and his plans for global pollution: the Toxic Crusaders, Earth’s last, greatest and ugliest hope for survival! Battle across seven disgusting levels rendered in vibrant pixel art as you defend Tromaville from hordes of Radiation Rangers, mutated thugs and zombie chickens. The odds might be stacked against you but with awesome powers, a winning personality, and up to four-players on your side, the Smogulan Empire’s days are numbered!
“Choose from seven playable characters, including Toxie, No-Zone, Junkyard, Major Disaster, and Headbanger – plus, for the first time, play as Toxie’s musically “gifted” girlfriend Yvonne, and the mother of all mothers, Mrs. Junko, Toxie’s mom!”
Considering this is set in Tromaville, it’s a safe bet that we’ll see more Troma characters beyond the Crusaders here. Toxic Crusaders will also feature fully voice-acted motion comic cutscenes, featuring voice acting by TeamFourStar, industry veterans, and of course, Troma actors.
Check out the gameplay demo below for a closer look at the Toxic Crusaders in action.
Toxic Crusaders is coming soon to Xbox Series X + S, Playstation 4 + 5, Steam, Nintendo Switch, and the Epic Games Store. But you can wishlist on Steam in the meantime.
