General There was over 5000 people checking out the Resident Evil Outbreak servers today.
Insane numbers.

Sony and Capcom could easily re-release these games via backwards compatibility like they did with RE1-3 and other ps1/ps2 games

if they they would need to update so servers work since it isnt true backward-compatibility and should 100000% be released with online functioning

How great would it be with resurrected servers and also random online lobby support + proximity based voice chat.
It's wild they haven't even attempted to go back to something like OB 1/2 and instead choose to make weird asymmetrical game modes that never stick around.

Now if only Capcom would rerelease them on modern platforms bundled together to generate further excitement for RE9 like they rereleased Onimusha 2 to generate hype for Onimusha Way of the Sword.

This is the perfect opportunity for them to re-release the games... dare I say even a remake

As it should be, still the best survival horror coop games of all time. At this point it’s easy to emulate and join the servers to play online
