Producer for Resident Evil: Revelations wants to make more Resident Evil games on the 3DS

116 Comments

Masachika Kawata, the producer of Resident Evil: Revelations, has expressed interest in making more Resident Evil games for the 3DS, saying:

The incredibly positive fan reaction to Revelations has definitely given me motivation to make another 3DS RE title. I have some ideas in mind. However, I have a lot of other projects that need to be taken care of first. I must admit [that] hearing players say how much they enjoyed Revelations does kind of make me want to forget the other projects and get stuck right into making another RE game for fans to enjoy.

And that’s great to hear. We’ll have to wait and see if anything happens though.

    He should dump the other projects. Lol maybe I’m just being selfish…

      God, I miss Code Lyoko. Never saw how it ended.

    • Matthew

      Same. I miss the old cartoon network. Miguzi and Toonami forever. <3

      Those were the days…I miss Ed, Edd, ‘n Eddy too. And I miss those short breaks that used cartoon characters and real life backrounds.

    • Josh

      Yeah, I miss the good ol’ days too.

    • http://passid.ca/potter dsiderreck6

      Haha yeah. I’m actually the biggest Code Lyoko fan on their Facebook page. They have a thing that shows points. And I have 200. Haha I honestly do think I’m the biggest fan. I’m so glad that Code Lyoko Evolution is coming in the fall.

    • http://www.gamesradar.com GameManiac

      “Code Lyoko Evolution”?

      What, when, and where?!

    • Eragon Fowl

      @gamemaniac Fall this year and its season 5 of code lyoko and its going to be live action with cgi for lyoko. If you live in france and look like your 16 they are looking for cast members. Filming will be done by august.

      @Eragon Fowl …Holy S***!

    • http://www.gamesradar.com GameManiac

      I seriously need to look into this. I’m already hooked.

    • Eragon Fowl

      I love code lyoko.

    • http://passid.ca/potter dsiderreck6

      Yes. It’s coming this fall and im SUUUUUPER HYPED!!!!!

    • Super smash bros Universe

      I think I may be the only person who misses Class of 3000. I loved the humor, story, and music.

    Do it, Kawata. Do it now!

    More Resident Evil is never a bad thing, and if it’s 3DS-exclusive, then all the better.

    • tob2007

      Well, if RE6 is like RE5, then I’ll say that more RE IS a bad thing.

    • Michael Scott

      And if its more like revelations is, Its a GREAT thing

    • Egghollo

      Yes and more Jill’s ass in 3d is a GREAT thing!

    • Belinni

      I’d like to see more of Quint and Keith. I heard a lot of people hated the duo but I found them hilarious and refreshing (the idiots usually die in zombie movies).

      Also Quint’s Star Trek references for the win.

    • HazetheHawk

      Yay for Jill’s ass! :D

  • Elctric

    I know this is off topic, but David I heard a rumor that the 3ds could have youtube a few weeks after hulu plus comes. REMEMBER its a rumor so dont get mad at me

    • Csaw

      Where did you here the rumor from?

    • GamingFan99

      Yeah where? If it’s a good source… then I’m excited!

  • RockyTem

    the limited edition 25th anniversary zelda poster are back up again =P

    • adrian12369

      mine are on my wall! :) They’re all amazing

  • Elctric

    I wouldn’t mind another RE game :)

    • http://gravatar.com/elffcc Big E

      I guess the worst part about the RE games for 3DS is the fact that when playing online, you can’t access the Home Menu…I honestly can’t wait for a new game that features brand new characters, no comebacks. That, and Resident Evil 6 ‘cuz Leon’s in it.

  • Han Solo

    Great news. I hope they make a RE game where you play against other people. Maybe zombies vs human teams or something. I just want a real shooter for the 3DS.

    • GamingFan99

      Um… haha get a Vita for that.

    • xavier

      conduit is coming 2 the 3ds ? im sure thats a great shooter if u got circle pad pro

  • Grassman

    revelations took place in between re4 and re5… make the next one take place in between re5 and re6.

    • moo

      Maybe they could make a “Revelations 2″?

    • Belinni

      Not to mention that Revelations finished with a few loose ends. They probably knew the game would be well received so they added a few extra scenes at the end just in case they wanted to make a sequel akin the Metroid Prime (Dark Samus’ hand coming out of phazon or whatever).

      What I want is the next RE 3DS game to have 100% more Parker. He had more soul in Revelations than all of Chris’ appearances combined.

  • Eternal Dragon

    OH GOD YEAH, THIS IS FANTASTIC NEWS

  • rockfrank

    A new resident evil game for the 3ds? HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!! i have revelations and i really liked it, im pretty sure the next one will just kick microsoft and sony’s butt in an instant. I LOVE NINTENDO!!! CMON CAPCOM, make another wonderful resident evil game for us only in 3ds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • LittleMofreaky

    I’m down.

  • Matthew

    Support the petition for another Mario Sunshine! Please many of us want this badly. http://www.petitionbuzz.com/petitions/mariosunshine3ds Thank you.

    • Jacko

      K imma sign

    • tob2007

      Trust me, Nintendo’s NEVER looked at a silly online petition before, and it’ll take more than that to convince them. They do what they want when they want.

  • http://en.gravatar.com/ GameManiac

    I don’t know. I’m not a fan of the horror FPS genre (or horror in general).

    Of course, I played Renegade Kid’s “Dememtium: the Ward” for the Nintendo DS, so I should reconsider.

    And I should try out the demo for RE: Revelations. I haven’t gotten to it yet.

    • millsy

      It’s really good. Don’t get it if you don’t like stuff like horror though.

    • http://gravatar.com/elffcc Big E

      And the FPS is an option for the two 3DS Resident Evil games. The RE games are more focused on survival than horror, though. They’re not scary, they just get very tense.

    • http://www.gamesradar.com GameManiac

      @millsy
      I know its really good. I won’t deny that.

      I just seriously avoid the horror genre like I avoid loud noises (I have sensitive hearing BTW).

      When I play the demo, I’ll seriously consider buying the game or not, despite the horror genre.

    • Andy

      I’m also not that big on horror games; but once I got over my nerves, I genuinely enjoyed this game. Best 3DS game yet in my opinion.

  • http://strpkers Tk

    RE revelations is very good 3DS game, one that I will never forget. Another one of this kind will be remarkable

  • millsy

    Raid Mode was fun but I wanted it to be more like Zombies on CoD. Endless waves of monsters = Non-stop action.

    • adrian12369

      yeah I thought raid mode was going to be waves of zombies, but they’re missions ;/

  • KING Z

    So maybe someday when i get on my friend list I can say ” RE6 any1? “!

    • MxplayerX

      it should be a HUNK story line. Mr Death!!

  • wiilover001

    I’d be a day 1 buy from me!
    Revelations was my 1st RE game and I LOVED it!

    • Andy

      Same here. I’m on either episode 9 or 10 right now, and I’m loving it!

    • http://gravatar.com/elffcc Big E

      I’m just getting started on Hell mode….Wait, “was”?

  • Szayel

    Duh. Resident evil revelations is a AMAZING game. I would love another polished game like that.

    • Belinni

      Best part being since they already have an engine that works they can spend more time on the location, graphics and story.

      Why fix what ain’t broke?

      Also by graphics I mean the off chance Nintendo allows them to use an 8 GB card. Either that or they have more time to polish how the backgrounds look with what they DO have (notice how the fire extinguishers were just photos).

  • the corre

    i hope we nintendo fans get dlc for both re revalation and mercanaries 3d

    • Belinni

      It’s a bit late for that.

  • Captain N

    Well they did say originally that before the started work on Revelations that they had ported. Some of Resident Evil 5 onto the 3DS to test its capabilities……so why not rerelease RE 5 on it now.

    • Franco

      Re5 is not one of the favorites by the fans. :/

    • http://gravatar.com/elffcc Big E

      The co-op is. And I really hope Sheva makes morre appearances.

  • cheezr

    FTW!
    this is the first RE game I have played and I really enjoyed the 3D and the bite sized chapters.
    It has inspired me to get the wii RE games to try out.

    • http://..... luisj96

      just like me

  • McNick

    I went to Best Buy today, checked out the Vita. and I gotta say in my eyes, Revelations looks a lot better than Uncharted…And circle pad feels better too.

    • Han Solo

      Hardware wise, the Vita destroys the 3DS, but I agree. The Uncharted demo looks bad for a Vita game, and RE:R looks amazing for a 3DS game. It comes pretty close.

    • http://www.gamesradar.com GameManiac

      It’s not graphical power that matters, its how developers use it strategically.

    • sam765

      That’s because you are a fanboy…

    • McNick

      I am not a fanboy, I have a 360, a psp, wii, and now 3ds. I’m planning on getting the vita later on in a few years, I just wanted to test it out. And obviously, the team probably worked harder for revelations rather than uncharted. I just thought I’d point those two games out look wise :)

    • xavier

      i wouldn’t say vita destroys because most games on the 3ds utilize 2g chips if we got our hands on a 6g chip at least the games should look on par graphically at least with the vita

  • DaveC

    Hopefully they improve the 3D effect. On this one it looks mostly like a flat-ish screen just pushed back into the 3DS screen. The stronger the “3D” the further it went into the screen. Nothing really pops out like it should and the depth between foreground and background is too subtle. The 3D was dissapointing in RE (and yes I had it set for “strong”).

    Compare this to MGS Snake eater in which the 3D really pops. graphics come out at you as well as go into the screen.

    • http://www.youtube.com/user/justiceflares Justiceflares

      I thought the 3D was good on RE:R and they used it perfectly and although it was good on the MGS demo i prefer the Resi feel. Now do’nt get me wrong I turned the 3D up from day 1 and kept it there so i am not hating on any game. I’m just saying that the 3D is better than MGS even though MGS has better depth

  • GwJumpman

    Thanks for the spoiler in the pic.

    • mikey

      ahhh what chapter r u on?

    • Josh

      That pic has been used already and I’ve finished the game. How long have you been playing?

    • Belinni

      Unless you only finish 1 chapter per month I’m pretty sure everyone who has bought the game has passed this point. Unless they JUST bought the game but then why are they here reading instead of playing an awesome game?

  • key

    YES PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! JUST TAKE MY MONEY !!!!

  • Kape

    Oh hell yes!

  • Akurei

    Awesome news! I really loved RE, it got some of the better bits of RE4, while mixing the scary moments that got RE famous from the very beginning of the series. Really looking forward to a new one already then! :)

  • Tails the Foxhound

    Yes please, Capcom. You’ve actually started to redeem yourselves in my eyes with this game. (Now just make a Megaman game [on any damn system] and me and you’ll be good.

    • TheDarkHero

      YES CAPCOM,please make another megaman game.PLEASE!!!

    • http://youtube.com/user/TheWaterPokemon Glenn

      Mega Man 11 on the Wii and 3DS eShops!!!
      Or 11 on Wii U and Legends 3 on 3DS…
      Or ALL of those! I feel people don’t give enough appreciation to the Original Series, tho.

  • Flip

    Nintendo put Oshawatt instead of Oshawott at their website: go to nintendo dot com, and rollover on Oshawott!

    • Flip

      do this ^

  • Evan

    Yes! I’ve always been angry that the competing consoles always get the good mature games, like Modern Warfare (3 is an exeption), Halo, Metal Gear, and Resident Evil. Resident Evil is my favorite mature game series, and this is exactly what I’ve been waiting for! Who else feels like this?

    So happy… :D

    • Purnedo

      Resident Evil (remake) – Game Cube
      Resident Evil 2 – N64
      Resident Evil 4 – Game Cube

    • Purnedo

      Also Modern warfare sucks dick. And Halo is Microcock’s and it sucks anyway!

    • Evan

      Modern Warfare does not suck dick. Halo might, but I never said I actually LIKED Halo.

  • GamingFan99

    Blech slow news day… I really hope Animal Crossing shows up at GDC.

  • RAWR!

    lol i dont even have resident evil revelations… thanks for the spoilers davied!

  • RAWR!

    and “davied” was a typo if anyone asks…

  • Person (formerly known as person)

    My friend who is a STRONG xbox fanboy tried to tell me that this game looked (resident evil: revelations) like it had ps2 graphics, I just laughed and continues playing

    • Person (formerly known as person)

      crap, I hate typos, I meant continued

    • millsy

      You show him!

    • http://gravatar.com/elffcc Big E

      Tell him/her this then: The PS2′s graphics is just a black/gray box with “PS2/Playstation 2″ marked on it with a couple memory card/controller slots.

    • Belinni

      or just show him a screenshot from the first Jak and Daxter.

      That would put any 3DS vs PS2 battles to rest. Either way, isn’t it a good thing that the now 1 year old 3DS is more powerful than a last gen HOME console? This means technology is advancing faster than before.

    “I must admit [that] hearing players say how much they enjoyed Revelations does kind of make me want to forget the other projects and get stuck right into making another RE game for fans to shell out loads of money for!”

    Fixed.

    • AquaFire

      I would love a RE2 remake for the 3DS
      Wish he ‘d consider making that.

  • Tom

    someone please help me here i bought a 3ds from the uk 2 months ago and now i am going to america do need a new charger to charge my 3ds. and if i do need please refer me to a good product. and if thats the case does it mean i can only do system update from the uk and if i go to america and try to do it, will it work or not please help me i really need help anyone
    both are different questions and nothing to do with each other

    • Craig

      You’ll have a hard time playing American games, it’s region locked. If it’s a holiday, then fine… Just buy an adapter that your charger will plug into, then you can plug it into a wall socket in the US. Just make sure you don’t buy American games for it :)

    • Craig

      Also, if you’re moving to America – You’ll be able to update your system from the USA for European consoles but again, you’ll need to order games from the UK.

    • Xarreno

      You can also buy a new American 3ds and transfer all data from your UK one to it. You would still need to buy American games, though.

  • Craig

    While the game’s idea, graphics and textures are amazing… I couldn’t survive in the demo and it put me off, FPS shooters don’t seem to work for me. However, I’m so glad people want to bring more of this to the 3DS, it does work on Nintendo consoles – no matter what people think… Even on Wii, it’s just the mindset of developers that puts them off making these kinds of titles – even though it’s capable of doing so.

    • Evan

      I have a feeling it will be a remake of one of the past Resident Evil games.

  • KING Z

    It will likely be a Resident evil 3 remake or a sequel to Revelations

  • Evan

    I want to see a remake of a RE game, like 2 or 4. A sequel to Revelations or an original RE game would be nice, too.

    • Belinni

      Even though the 3DS is stronger than the GameCube/PS2 I doubt it’s time to make a remake of RE 4 as it wouldn’t look that much better than the original anyway. I’d say they should remake the first few RE games but with the gameplay style of 4, 5, and Revelations.

      I know some people wouldn’t like the change but I’d freakin’ love it!

  • Tom

    to craig and anyone who can help me
    thanks for answering my both questions. but i don’t understand when you said games are locked and that i should not buy american games. please help me. to explain what i am trying to say i will give you an example: so if i buy a console from the us but games like super mario 3d land from the uk you are saying i can’t super mario on my 3ds just because i bought from the us and 3d land from the uk. is that what you are trying to say. i have never heard of this. as you said my 3ds from the uk but if i buy games from the us i can’t play is that your point if it is. i seriously haven’t heard it and how do you please elaborate your point please and anyone who can help please help.

    • Xarreno

      Yes, that is it exactly. Nintendo has made the 3DSes in a way that foreign games (even if it’s the same game) cannot be played. From what I’ve heard, I believe it is still possible to play American games in a UK 3DS or vise versa.

  • HazetheHawk

    YAY FOR NINTENDO! XD

  • bond james bond

    please god no,

    i prefer resident evil games on the big screen,
    at least if they make more port them to 360 or somehing

    and before you all start acting like retards, i do have a 3ds and im no fanboy

  • Josh

    Well then, you’ve got some issues.
    I’m confused why you want to not be banned from this site even though you seem to hate this site. If anything, it’d just be easier for everyone if you mellowed down a bit.

  • the corre

    calm down,calm down mr.ladyparts david t. has his own opinion on games just like everyone else like my fav nintendo news website is nintendo3dsblog.com i think u r just a hater.

  • http://gravatar.com/elffcc Big E

    @Josh Add to the fact that his grammar is…bad. He can’t even spell “Kangaroo” right…What the hell is an iMac?

  • Josh

    @Big E An iMac is the desktop computer developed by Apple. It’s the computer seen in the background of David’s videos.
    Although it’s just wrong to assume David would steal money to pay for it, especially charity money obtained when he already had one.

  • http://gravatar.com/elffcc Big E

    @Josh I thought they were called Macs or Macbooks. Never heard of one with an “i” in the name. I already knew Macs are produced and marketed by Apple.

  • Josh

    @Big E You’re sort of correct, but there’s a distinction between the two. I guess you could call all computers made by Apple a Mac, but an iMac has the computer built into the screen.

  • http://gravatar.com/elffcc Big E

    Ah, I see…Oh! I know what your talking about now…I haven’t been to a Best Buy in a while and I’m not into looking up Apple based products. I also do not plan on buying anything Apple after what they did to my iPod Shuffle (2 gen).
