Resident Evil 5 unveiled
Producer unofficially points to RE5
The latest edition of US magazine EGM has revealed what we all kind of assumed any way; namely that Capcom are currently plotting Resident Evil 5. Producer Hiroyuki Kobayashi revealed the news: "We are going to do a Resident Evil 5, of course, but as for exactly what it will be like... that's something we're busy thinking about right now...[RE4] is the start of a new storyline. In other words, when you think of it that way, then it's safe to say that RE5 will naturally proceed from where RE4 left off."
With RE4 being ported to the PS2 as we speak, it is expected that number five in the series may go multi-platform again, after recent instalments were exclusive to the GameCube. Numero four is due out in Europe imminently and looks like it'll give a good indication of where number five is heading if Kobayashi's statement can be taken on face value.

If Umbrella were to mix the Las Plagas with a classic virus, I think that The story would become a mix of old and new. This is something I would like.
Ps. so far all of the RE games have come out or have been remade on the cube so I think it is supposed to come out on the GC under contract w/ Capcom
I think u guys should stay with the the same story line because was resident evil 4 was the best game that ever happen the resident evil games..
Resdent Evil 5 may release on Playstation 2 or Gamecube or Playsatation 3 or Nintendo Revovulton or Xbox Next ?
the one thing i know is unbrella is gone, so there wont be any mixing, and plus that is why they added the las plagas, cause there was no traditional unbrella virus.
i think they should put sherry from RE2 in the game and they should have claire or jill return but im not sure about the story of the game but it would be cool to see claire and jill together along with old characters!!!
i think it would be cool to see old characters and some new characters kicking zombies asses together. If sherry is in the game she would be alittle older and she would be about 17 or 18 and she should help fight the zombies with claire and jill. claire and jill have never been in the same game so it would be cool to see them together since they are popular characters. Also they should bring back some people from RE:outbreak in the game and they could help in the game to fight another virus!!!!!!!!!
forget a new plot wot eva happened 2 all the pld characters wesker, steve burnsides & billy connley. they cant just vannish you really need to start tieing up loose ends go back 3 years befor no. 4 it would confusingly make sense & for get the coins add more action moves and a base ball bat.
plz come to nintendo consoll to i have not so much money so if it comes on ps2 or somthing like that i must buy a ps2
RE5 just sounds great.
It have to be ONLY on nintendo revolution, no sony or xbox.
I think Chris will be the best choice or maybe leon again, it have to be in really dark mansion like the early RE4.
Being an avid RE fan Since installment #2, I think that the only way the series can go is up. With the exeption of the Survivor series, the Gamboy & GameCom games; the Series is a cult classic. And with the changes they made with RE4; they managed to keep it fresh and new. If you really went through the game you would know that at the end of the game. Ada has taken Las Plagas, and Wesker, Ada, and Krauser are trying to restore Umbrella's former status. So I think that the next resident evil is one of the ex- S.T.A.R.S. trying to infiltrate Umbrella's new base. I think that the RE 4, 5, & 6 are ging to be Umbrella's return...
She needed the virus sample to give to Wesker. Wesker is trying to rebuild Umbrella. The next installment ov Resident evil 5 is the resurection of Umbrella inc. If you dont believe me then play the Assignment Ada mini game. It makes total sense.
just finished resident evil 4 for the second million time i love it could if anyone hears of i new resident evil book e-mail me plaese at mikeymike2k@hotmail.co.uk
God resident evil 4 is the greastest game ever, new story new game play if u dont have it yet get it
Resident Evil 5 will be released on the next generation consoles, Gamecube 2 or Playstation 3. The release date is around May 2006.
Confirmation: Resident Evil 5 will come out only for GameCube Revolution on May 14.th, 2006.
The European (PAL) version will be in stores in Summer, 2006.
I would like to see Capcom make a game with the same new system but going through the other characters stories e.g. what were jill, chris, claire and barry doing in the six years leading up to resi 4

Resident Evil 5, if it is to come out for the Nintendo Revolution, I'll be happy because you know what? Nintendo NEEDS a lot of good quality games for the future, like Resident Evil 4 just did for it. I'm guessing Umbrella will be re established from Wesker and Ada. It would be cool if they combined the Las Plagas with the T-Virus, and G-Virus. And Leon should be in it also, he is pretty much the coolest character in all of the Resident Evil games, no doubt about it. Damn though, HE should have made a move with Ashley that woulda been cool. :-D
That's what I said. I hate it when people take what I say and say it's their own. I'm talking to you KEENAN. The whole idea of mixing the T-virus and Las Plagas is stupid. Why would they do that? all I have to say is D-U-M-B.
you think u can get a chainsaw o.o
Hey ipod junkie the plagas were in resident evil before number 4 they apeared in resident evil 1-3 just look at the notes found through out the levels in monster descriptions it says that virus that created them just go to game faqs and do a look up the monters for resident evil one. ps. They should make resident evil five that you go through the ranks ganing levels from monster to monster you could go from being a zombie to a licker to a hunter!!!!!!
RE4 is the best RE game EVER!!!!!!!!!!! They should bring back sum of the old charaters like Jill, Claire, and even Chris....Cant wait to play RE5!!!Ohh and they should mix in the plagas with the T-virus..........................
as long as they make the new resident evil the same way as 4 it will be an instant classic
RE4 is going to be on ps2 soon. so make RE5 for ps3 rock on. forget nintendo and all there mario games... and xbox. PS3.
RE 5 I think they should keep the story line but add in some help from old characters. need more info on the bulding back up of umbrella and what about luis and his sighting of the t virus sample in the lab i know that in adas minni game you gather plaga samples but in the real game they never specifie what sample she stole . i say make it darker and more like the originals and keep it on the nintendo platforms.
I hope Resident Evil 5 comes to Nintendo because the whole series has been on that system already. Plus if we've enjoyed Resident Evil 4, we'll be ready for way more on Resident Evil 5.
Resident Evil 5 should include Leon in some way obviouslly because he knows whats going on...my best guess would be he needs some help and calls back on an old friend from six years ago(Claire) maybe Claire will even get Chris in the loop, i think that would make an interseting story, no? P.S. that mixing idea has got to be the dumbest thing ever if you know anything bout chemistry the chances of the viruses working together is 0-1so forget about it...it would make for a pretty cool zombie though
RE5 will be multiplatform for sony and nintendo.
Since Capcom broke the contract between them and nintendo (supposedly they were to make the official resident evil series only for GC, and RE4 is already being ported for PS2)
they should make it for both systems. sony and nintendo they will make more money.. and it will keep the fans happy.
is it going to be on ps2 or gamecube? because i have re4 and it is only on gamecube for a start and is not yet ported on ps2.
Personally i would hope that they make a re game where you can actually be evil. I mean come on please tell me that at least once you just wished you could be that bad ass you love to hate? Really I mean you could be wesker. That would be pretty cool. Restore umbrella setting the stage for some more kick ass games as the good guys. that would be pretty sweet. You must admit. I have been a big re fan and personally i would love to see it. Wesker was so bigtime in the mercenarys in re4. come on guys it would be kick ass i'm telling you. trust me!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i think it would b better if albert wesker came bk he rules 4 a bad guy i have waited since veronica since we last seen his y????
What is the dirrerance between the T-virus and the G-virus? Just asking.
What the hell is the literal meaning of the term "las plagas"?
I think that we will proberbly see more new characters than old in 5 , I think the only reason that they kept a number of the classic characters in 4 was because of the dramatic shift in gameplay.
With the zombies gone, capcom had to come up with a device to keep it linked to the resident evil franchise namely Leon and Ada.
although I think we will proberbly see the return of Wesker.
oh and by the way whoever thought of the mixing idea should be shot.
my gran could pull a better coniept out of her arse!
I heard that a new virus called the H-virus will be in RE5. I'm not sure about that...
please try to understand gamecube the one who remade RE RE0 and they smooth graphic on RE2 RE3 and RE4 its gamecube right, so why should RE5 it be on PS2 if all the series been runnin on gamcube thats jus takin credits for being PS2 it would not be fair on Gamecube for e.g people say GC its for kids u were dead wrong and PS2 is better all am jus tryin to say putting RE on PS2 will be rip
they might mix las plagas and T-virus
hey guys why dont they do this havent u seen all resident evil they keep sayin umbrella is goin down,so i say it should be multiplayer 1-4 player play like Jill Valentine,Chris Redfield,Claire Redfiled, Leon S Kneddy,Rebecca Chambers,Ada Wong,Sherry Birkins,Barry Burton and Steve burnside do you remember Code veronica
since all the charcters are here they should stop wesker plans
dude you forget ada is evil
hey dinin that idea is crap, resiedent evil has just reach a new level of greatness with a new conciept and new enemies, as if their gonna slumb back for another rehashed zombie adventure.
good thing your not incharge of the games industry my friend or we'd still be playing pong.
ada would have killed leon but she didn't right they like each other but where not there yet and beside if she didn't get the sample wesker would kill her
oright explain this in re4 she dtonate the island where leon was why did she give him jetski Key huh probably she aint evil u cant tell. Dinin
all resident evil werent multiplayer so why dont they give this multiplayer game it should be wicked
In RE5 they should put wesker as a last boss
Dinin u cant forget ada is the who saved leon wher saddler conered him at least ada aint that evil jus like i said
If you think about now, Every game from RE1 to RE4, every character has been in at least 2 RE games.
Maybe there be a change and have them all in RE5 having ther stories intertwine making the game even bigger and better and sending the series off with a bang. (Not saying its the last game, but it would be a good way to go out)
Hey this is jus rumor and i dnt no why u so pissed off dinin, all am jus sayin no il give ya point u kno at the end where leon found sample after saddler ada would have shot his head off, but in resident evil 5 she might betray wesker and help the good guys
hey russie i like the idea even thats what am try to sayin
does people like single or multiplayer doesnt matter they should both go on story cause we never had multiplayer for the whole games of RE, well outbreak was a multiplyer but its online we dont want to be online players like 1-4 Players
what happened to my other comment was it to violent?
oh and they need to have you able to move and shoot.
hey jus chill out
Bring back Chris Redfield,Alexia and Alfred Ashford to
RE5!Have it be Alexia and Alfred taking revenge on
Wesker and his organisation and a big fight with Chris
and Wesker!!!
Cast:
Chris Redfield
Leon S.Kennedy
Albert Wesker
Ada Wong
Alexia Ashford
Alfred Ashford
Have the story set in Tungusga in Russia,where Wesker and Ada organisations hideout is.And have a
giant Alien space craft hidden there and aliens prowling to get back to there ship!!Have the game got
a mixture of:The X-files,Alien VS Predator and Van Helsing!!!And have trailers of RE:Afterlife as bonuses.
All i have to say is what in gods name are you smoking????????????
what the hell are U on about this is resident evil were talkin about not some kind a stupid alien invasion game whats that got to do the story
hey, u forgot about leon hes still in the mission to go get sample,chris need finish wesker for once and jill gonna finish umbrella
Sherry will have to be included in the next game if you looked at weskers report. Why would wesker end it with "Theres something about that girl" if she didn't have a role in it. Birkins must've tested on her also.

will barry b involed in the next resi?
If wesker does opperate on steve from code veronica x will he b the last boss 2 verse if so then we got problems unless he fights the veronica virus and helps the good guys again
ok , ive completed all the resident evil games , including number 4 and i fort it was the best game ever so far out of all of dem . Despite that , i didnt like the story line too much bout the parasites n las plagas , i reli think they shud go bk wiv the zombies in resident evil 5 . I dont reli care which console it comes out on coz i got every1 n i also think that resi 5 shud take place in a dark haunted mansion or summin and a village p.s keep leon as da main character !!!
Chris 2 b main character in resi 5
? i hope so
na man keep leon as the main character !!!!!!!
wesker , y did u say bring bk alexia and alfred ashford in resi 5 ? errrr hello they both died in code veronica , plus i never liked them 2 anyway !!!! the story line shud be bout wesker and ada have a dark haunted mansion as there hideout ( n where they keep the sample ) n leon must go and find them !!!! the game shud start in like a village ( similar to the 1 in resi 4 ) and then lead to the mansion p.s capcom , plz make this resident evil reli scary !!!!!!!!!!!!! o and bring bk the zombies but dont bring bk the crimsion heads from resident evil 1 the remake plz !! :p lol and also bring bk the hunters 2 !!!
O and for all u resi fans ( including me :P ) lol i jus found out that capcom are bringing bk the zombies in resident evil 5 !!!
nhh man wat u on bout u need chris and claire in resi 5 as they the 1's after wesker it makes sence
yes more zombies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
na man , for some reason i dont like chris , leon much better , i think the cast shud be : LEON , CLAIRE , WESKER , ADA , dont no y but JILL coz i liked her in number 1
as gd as resident evil 4 is , u shud realise dat wen u complete the game n restart it and play it again , it gets borin , i recon the bit that spoiled the game is the castle , i h8 the castle in resi 4 , the hole game shud of took place in the village and the lab !!!!!! i am the bst n biggest resi fan here , im 14 yrs old n i been playin these games since i was like 9 yrs old wen the 1st one cum out :p lol not dat u guys wnted to no dat
why dont we jus say this is fair in CV chris said hel meet wesker again which is true and leon said he has to retrive the sample and follow ada, plus in RE3 jill should be in it cause she promised to take umbrella out with help of chris and barry, and barry should be there cause he said hel join with chris and his sister should be in re5 cause she don't wants to leave him you either read epilogues and combine the story in RE5 and plus there are more stuff steve was in CV but tuken by wesker cause he had the sample of T-Virus in his body and other sample he las plagas and he will try combine them one ultimate virus i think they should combine it was he gonna do with t-virus?
Ok guys,sorry about my statement I wrote,but I think it
would be cool if tey had the Gannados from RE4 and
Aliens in the totally new RE game.Someone said that
they think it would be cool if Wesker and Ada hideout
should be in a dark haunted mansion?But that is just
perfect!!You did say you never liked Alexia or Alfred didn't you?Well I don't either,but I saw on some website called the "Ashford Manor" saying that Alexia
COULD be still alive and probably planing her revenge
on Wesker and the Redfields.Still the storyline should
revolve around Leon as he tries to retrieve the sample
Ada stole.What a minute!Remember in Code Veronica
Wesker said Steve could could come back alive with
the virus Alexia injected him with.....
Cast
Leon S.Kennedy
Chris Redfield
Albert Wesker
Ada Wong
Steve Burnside
Alexia Ashord
Once again guys,sorry bout the thing about "Aliens"
and a space craft I wrote but I thing it'll be cool!!!
I hate to burst your bubles but the producers of resident evil stated that resi 4 is the start of a new storyline, so i think the parasites are here to stay. Don't get me wrong a loved the zombies in the old games, they were more interested in terms of storylne. but gameplay wise the crazed villigers brought a new dimension to the game and were more challengeing.
As for bringing all the old characters back, im not sure thats gonaa happen, i think we'll get two; my money's on Chris (he has still yet to have his own second adventure, as veronica wasn't really his story) and Wesker. I think we will see some newer characters that will step into the limelight in future games in the series.
Oh and aliens?! this is resident evil, not alien vs preditor!
yea wesker dat was me said they didnt like alexia and alfred n adas n weskers hideout shud be in a mansion
no but wait , how can alexia still be alive if u blew her to pieces wiv that linar launcher and the end cv ???
at **
jimbo , hu said there were gona be aliens , hu ever did is an idiot !!!!!
o wesker dat was u init lol
i think the following lol RESIDENT EVIL STORYLINE : ada n wesker have a hideout in sum deserted haunted mansion n leon is leaving to go there and retrieve the sample ! they shud have 2 discs , each 1 havin a different ending . 1 disc shud be chris's adventure , the settin of the game is completely different and he is goin to the mansion to settle a score wiv wesker , meanwhile , another disc shud be leon's adventure were he goes to the mansion to retrive the sample from ada !!! i dono but dat wat i think the game shud be about !!! and leon and chris shud meet up for the first time in the game !-+
n at the very end of the game ( the boss ) wesker shud mix the sample wiv the t-virus n inject himself and mutate , SO U CAN FINALLY FACE AND KILL WESKER !!!!
i agree wiv " wesker " wit the cast but take out alexia and steve , i mean steve died in cv n he was human, unlike wesker , and alexia , as i said , u blew her to pieces in cv at the end of the game ( i dont no y they capcom included alexia and steve in cv ) they jus pointless to the plot of the story !!!!!
hey dude u forgot jill and barry they willing to stop umbrealla and claires boyfreind is half dead and wesker said u'l see him
Read weskers comment above my previous comment, he wants it to take place on a space ship.
what a prick
Yo dudes,I have an idea.Remember the very very 1st RE game on the ps1 in 1996,where it showed the S.T.A.R.S. Team as real actors,Charlie played Chris and Gregory played Barry.But the voice acting was hurreandous!!!I think it'll be cool if they featurre RE5 like
that,but have the voice acters in place and record over the real actors voice',there was only 7 film sequenc' and 12 CG sequence.Did u know why they couldn't film it at a real location or more film clips?Because they didn't have enough money to build a studio or find a mansion.And hey,why not bring in a new charcter to the world of Resident Evil,Chris Redfields older brother:Nick Redfield!Have Nick take the lead villian alondside Ada and Wesker as he wants to get Chris!
Have him die or else turn good.Cast should be:
Charcter Actor Voice Actor
Chris Redfield - Charlie - Michael Filipowich
Leon S.Kennedy - Brad Renfro - Paul Mercier
Ark Thompson - Nick Stahl - Patrick Harlan
Albert Wesker - Christian Bale - Richard Waugh
Ada Wong - Zhang Ziyi - Sally Cahill
Nick Redfield - David Boreanaz - Jim Ward
Claire Redfield - Natile Portman - Alysson Court
Now others may not agree with me,and would prefer Chris to be played by David Boreanaz.But I think Charlie from the original RE game would do.Did you know that eric Mabius' character Matt Addison was meant to be played by Boreanaz!But David Boreanaz could not play the part because of Buffy and Angel series.
I have a good idea what if wesker and ada where to spread both las plagas and the t-virus at the same time t-virus in washington d.c and las plagas somewhere else. Then former stars members start some new group and go and try to stop the outbreak you pick your charector and get two diffrent stories you can track down wesker and end it or go after ada. Its just like letting you chose your favorite eh? just say if its good or not and i'll redo my thinking.
Dinin,thats a superb idea!But I'm sticking with Timframes opinion,I'm not saying your stupid Dinin.Its
just that the T-Virus is old news and Las Plagas is here to stay,by the way Dinin,if you've completed RE4 you would of unlocked mini game "Assignment Ada".
If you finish Assignment Ada,Wesker and Ada are speaking and Wesker says something like "Umbrella
is close to reaching its reastablishment",so I think Umbrella is gonna use the Las Plagas as the viral outbreak now.Although I miss the zombies.
I have completed assignment ada and mercinarys and know what happens but thats just what i think would be cool plus they must have a sample of the t-virus
Timeframe I solute you!I love the idea of feauring RE5 in film sequence like the 1st RE game,but I was wondering out of curiosity were those actors film stars?Or were they the king of actors that would be in reconstrucion filming like FBI Files and History documenterys or were they just ordainary people?
Not really sure,I think those actors were just ordainary people and were in reconstruction filming e.g. The Michael Jackson Trial or FBI Files.But they DEFINATELY were not film stars.
Wesker I hate to say it but your ideas suck, I don't want this to turn into us using this forum to have a go at each other its not personal, but to be fair another kidnapping? I'm sure capcom could come up wih something better than that. although i think many of you are on the right lines. The new game should be about Wesker trying to bring Umbrella back. None of you seem to like the ideas of new characters, i think we should have some fresh blood, Granted a couple of characters should be involved, but I don't think we'll see the whole cast together, not until the last in the series, and I'm sure none of you want to see the Resident Evil franchise end just yet.
Switch Ark Thompson for Barry Burton,Ark Thompson is not a popular character in the world of Resident Evil since he's in the Gun Survivor sereis and the Gun Survivor sereis in NOTHING like the world of Resident Evil!Oh and Nick Redfield?That is a good idea,but why not have Jack Krauser return?Now before anyone gives out to me,Jack Krauser injected himself with the T-Virus a few years right?If you know the games and the film then Jack Krauser died in RE4,but his body was not literly destroyed it was just left there right?Well then in his body there is still T-Virus,and the T-Virus brings the dead back to life,so Krauser might come back to life stronger than ever.Really I think the cast should be:Leon S.Kennedy,Chris Redfield,Barry Burton,Jack Krauser,Albert Wesker,Ada Wong,Claire Redfield.Oh I almost forgot who said anything about aliens??
RE5 should have a set of old characters and a new set
of characters,Nick Redfield?Chris Redfields older brother?That is just superb!!!But deos Chris have any brothers?I would like to have it film sequence like the 1st game.Ok guys,its been nearly 4 years since I bought RE:Code Veronica for the PS2 and I've finished it a dozen of times and since the end I've been waiting for Wesker and Chris to fight again.In the end of Code Veronica where Chris and Wesker are fighting Wesker is pretty much kicking Chris' ass,but lets hope 6 years later Chris is stronger now and he'll be able to kick Weskers ass!Theese are the actors and voice actors of who I think should be in RE5.
Leon S.Kennedy - Brad Renfro - Paul Mericer
Chris Redfield - Ben Affleck - Michael Filipowhich
Barry Burton - Jeff Daniels - Voice of Spawn
Albert Wesker - Cole Hauser - Richard Waugh
Ada Wong - Lucy Liu - Sally Cahill
Claire Redfield - Adrienne Frantz - Alysson Court
Look at the new model of Chris on the gamecube,he is like a clone of Ben Affleck!Bens head is sqaure like Chris' on the gamecube.
Chris Redfield is my favourite character in all of Resident Evil!!!
topnotch , all i gotta say is , wtf are u smoking dude ?
aint bein orrible but it clear u aint a true resi fan man ! i mean cumon , nick redfield ? wat are u on man ? And has any1 completed resident evil 4 on normal , damn that bare hard !!!!! i think resi 5 shud take in another village and a mansion , similar to the 1 in resi 1 ( the remake ) !!! they shud bring bk the zombies too ( capcom have said they are vringing bk the zombies anyway ) . NO WAIT , they shud mix the zombies and and the crazy villagers togeether , so the zombiefied villagers can carry nifes , pitchforks , chainsaws and climb up ladders AND also BITE u !!! i think dat wud be so cool . They shud have 2 storylines , ( 2 discs ) . 1 disc bein leons scenario and 1 bein chris's scenario . leon's one shud be bout leon working through this " deja vu " place ( the village ) leading up to the mansion ! and the rest of the game shud take place in there . While chris's scenario shud be him working his way through the city and gettin to the heliport. Then he flys to the mansion but he loses fuel and u crash in the forest outside the mansion then continue the game from there ! i dont no bout u guys but im a extremely true resi fan , played all of em , completed all of dem n playin all of dem since i was like 8 yrs old ! so do ya guys think me ideas gd or not ( i dont care , but i wud like the game to be bout dat ) And , chris and leon shud meet up at somepoint the in the game !!!! :P
Resident Evil5 should revolve around Leon and Chris, Weker should be in the game aswell but only as a cameo,have him appear an odd time in the game to give Chris or Leon messages or beatings.Have Wesker appear at the end of the game to fight Chris once and for all,have Ada take the lead villian in RE5 like RE4.Why not have Carlos Olivera from RE3 return to RE5,did anyone like him anway?Carlos should be in the game but only as a cameo,have him playable at the end as a bonus character.
Cast:
Leon S.Kennedy
Chris Redfield
Carlos Olivera
Albert Wesker
Ada Wong
After Resident Evil5,bring on Resident Evil6!Have RE6 be the last game of the franchise.
Re5 will be for Nintendo 1st as all the other 1s were before and you cant start a story and not finish it it wouldnt make sense
