Resident Evil PC Re-Release Gets Rating, Might Be Coming Soon

A new official age rating for a Resident Evil PC port has surfaced online, suggesting that a re-release might be coming very soon. Gematsu spotted the European age rating on 18 June and published the findings in an X/Twitter post.  The age rating page describes the upcoming game as a "PC port of the original Resident Evil game," and notes that it's rated PEGI 18 due to graphic violence.

While the Resident Evil remaster is currently available on Steam, fans have long been awaiting a re-release of the original.

This finding could hint at not only a Resident Evil PC re-release on Steam, but potentially a Resident Evil Classic Collection featuring re-releases of the original first three games. Horror Game Central on X/Twitter pointed out that the re-release could be a collab with Limited Game Runs; the company has a showcase scheduled for 20th June, and previously worked with Capcom on Clock Tower.

In other Resident Evil news, recent leaks have suggested that both Resident Evil 0 and Code Veronica remakes might be in the works by Capcom, following the company's recent trend of remaking older RE titles. After the success of the Resident Evil 4 remake, the developers announced that more REmakes were certainly on the way - but they didn't specify which games would get the remake treatment, leaving fans to speculate.
