New rumours have surfaced regarding Capcom's alleged Resident Evil 4 remake. Claiming Capcom will announce it later this year, changes might made to the story’s tone. This time, that comes from a Fanbyte report, which outlined hopes for Shinji Mikami, Resident Evil 4's original director, to return.

Reportedly, this remake would've been worked on by M-Two, who handled the Resident Evil 3 remake. Capcom hoped Mikami would return to work with old friend Tatsuya Minami. However, Mikami reportedly felt that his studio, Tango Gameworks, would fall apart without him, leaving the Resident Evil 2 Remake team to work on this new project.
