After the official remakes of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3, Capcom appears to be working on Resident Evil 4 Remake. Now as you may have noticed, the team has skipped a RE game that came right after RE3. That RE game is no other than Resident Evil Code Veronica. And since Capcom is not planning to remake it, some fans decided to create their own in Unity Engine.
This fan remake of Resident Evil Code Veronica will feature 3D environments and will be a third-person shooter. The remake aims to retain the style of the original game. Naturally, it will feature reimagined versions of all maps… or at least that’s the plan.
Resident Evil Code Veronica Remake will feature two modes; Remake and Classic. The Remake Mode will feature a third-person camera and faithful expanded scenarios. On the other hand, the Classic Mode will have fixed camera angles like the original game.
Furthermore, the game promises to feature new cinematics, new gameplay mechanics, expanded scenarios and puzzles, and save rooms.
Now while all this sounds too good to be true, the team released a gameplay video that appears to be quite polished (at least for a fan project). So, here is hoping that Capcom will not send them a C&D letter.
Enjoy the following gameplay videos and stay tuned for more!

They doing the same mistake many did before them, announcing about it before actual release, they will get a note from Capcom to stop and thats it.
Projects like this have to be finished in SECRET, released online and then its game over for capcom, they cant do anything about it
I have always wondered why projects like this are not kept secret till released…..
To show of…..
Better yet, stop doing fan games, just try doing a new thing. Who knows, they could even get some dollars their way.

Nice but yeah Capcom will shut this down. We will prolly get a RE Engine remake in the future. Hopefully it’s not rushed and cut like RE3’s remake was.
It actually depends.. They shut down RE2 cause they were working on a remake… If they happen to be secretly working on a Code Veronica they will shut down this game as well.
This game will be shutdown because they are directly using Capcom assets. The music is straight from Code Veronica, and they are using Claire’s face model likeness, which was quite likely imported from the RE2 model.
They will definitely go after this, if it gains any semblance of traction.
claire’s face model look better in the older games.
The music in this isn’t just the same composition, it’s lifted straight from the game. Meaning, they ripped the files from whatever version, and used the very same recordings.
It would be different if they remixed their own versions, but would still be grounds for infringement. They didn’t even do that. They ripped the very audio from the original.
Capcom will shut this down if it starts to look even remotely like it will be completed and released.
If a remake is in the works, who cares that the fan game gets shut down? Unless the remake ends up being a failure or worse than the fan game, like Metroid 2, but that is a rare occasion (which certainly woudn’t be the case here since the footage from this fan game is terrible).
Title should read: “Fans Submit Application for C&D Letter From Capcom”
I hope they got luck and capcom will triggered to remake code Veronica just like RE2 remake case years ago…
CE is the worst RE game, ppl are only loving the game trough nostalgia and boomer style camera angles…
Crappy story, crapy bad twins, bad vo, bad pacing, bad characters.
Redfield team could not handle that much amount of trash on they shoulers.
Its the last Classical RE Game, Last GOOD RE Game, the First and Last Classical 3D RE Game that isnt a remake
Looks really bad, Capcom won’t even bother with a C&D.
