Here's a little something interesting for Resident Evil fans this morning. According to the latest podcast featuring Chris Kramer, Senior Director of Communication and Community for Capcom (I imagine that he handles the hate mail and forums), over at Major Nelson's place, it's highly possible that Resident Evil 5 will see release this year.

And I quote:


If you'd rather skip the radio-like melodrama you'll find the above comment at the 30.00 mark.

Reports were circling this morning that the blu-ray release of Resident Evil: Extinction would boast demos for both Resident Evil 5 and Devil May Cry 4 for the PlayStation 3, however it has now been confirmed via High-Def Digest that this is not the case.

Instead, the Blu-ray format will include high-definition trailers of the two games. Guess it's not a total loss.

In more Resident Evil news, reports have surfaced that Capcom is currently working with Sony Pictures Entertainment to produce a CGI Resident Evil film entitled Biohazard: Degeneration. According to CVG the movie will boast "groundbreaking visual effects and [a] brand new storyline" that should enhance its appeal to videogame moviegoers everywhere.

No release information is currently available but the buzz says to expect it sometime in 2008. We're also short on voice actor and director details, though no doubt fans would enjoy the return of George A. Romero, who directed the first live-action RE flicks but was replaced for RE: Extinction.

We'll keep you updated.

While the first two Resident Evil movies have been panned by critics, there's no denying that the movie series is a cash cow, raking in over $90 million combined. A third RE movie, dubbed Resident Evil: Afterlife, has yet to begin production, but word is that a fourth installment is already being planned.

Not much is known about either other than their locales and that Milla Jovovich will reprise her role of Alice in Afterlife, and possibly in the fourth film as well. Afterlife will take place in the American southwest, and the fourth RE will take place in Japan and will be shot on location there.
