CAPCOM Rumor Roundup Points to Devil May Cry Remake and a Long Resident Evil Roadmap, but Only Part of the Leak Has Any Backing
A fresh wave of CAPCOM rumors is making the rounds after Dusk Golem corroborated one specific claim tied to future Resident Evil Requiem DLC, but the wider roadmap now circulating online remains far less certain. The discussion began after Dusk Golem appeared to support a claim that Ada Wong will appear in future Resident Evil Requiem content, a point linked through this post. From there, Reddit users traced the source back through an anonymous insider’s earlier posts and surfaced a much broader list of alleged CAPCOM plans in this Reddit thread, including a Devil May Cry 1 remake, an Resident Evil 1 remake in full production, and a remake roadmap extending all the way to 2030.
That is where the story becomes much more complicated. After the larger rumor package started spreading, Dusk Golem publicly distanced himself from 2 of the biggest claims, stating in this follow up post that the Devil May Cry 1 Remake rumor and the Resident Evil 10 protagonist rumor did not come from him. That clarification is the most important part of the entire story, because it sharply separates the one element he appeared to support from the much more ambitious slate now being passed around as if it were fully endorsed. Right now, that broader roadmap should be treated as unverified rumor rather than reliable leaked production information.
Even so, the contents of the alleged roadmap are significant enough that they are drawing attention across both the Resident Evil and Devil May Cry fanbases. According to the Reddit summary, CAPCOM supposedly approved 4 major Resident Evil related projects around mid 2022, including a Resident Evil Zero remake, a Resident Evil 1 remake, Resident Evil 10, and a Code Veronica remake. The same alleged leak claims internal codenames such as Project Chambers for Zero, Project Fallen for RE1, and Project Redlife for RE10, while also claiming that RE1 has recently entered full production and that RE10 would feature Claire Redfield as its lead. On top of that, it adds the highly attention grabbing claim that a Devil May Cry 1 remake is now in active development.
Taken together, it reads like a dream roadmap for longtime CAPCOM fans, but that is exactly why it needs caution. Outside the Ada Wong DLC angle, none of this has been vouched for by Dusk Golem in the material linked here, and CAPCOM itself has said nothing publicly to support it. That matters because rumor bundles often gain momentum by mixing one plausible or partially supported detail with a larger set of unverified claims. Once that happens, the whole package can start looking stronger than it actually is.
The Devil May Cry portion is especially interesting because it taps into a very real appetite in the market. Devil May Cry 5 remains a major success for CAPCOM and there has been no new mainline installment since its 2019 release, so it is not hard to understand why fans would immediately latch onto remake talk. At the same time, this part of the rumor currently stands on the weakest footing in the chain presented here, especially after Dusk Golem explicitly said it did not come from him. That does not make it false, but it does mean there is no solid corroboration in the linked material.
The Resident Evil side feels slightly more believable only because CAPCOM has already shown how aggressively it values that franchise, particularly through its remake strategy. But even there, the supposed order of Code Veronica, Zero, RE1, and then RE10 reaching into 2030 remains speculation, not established fact. Fans may want it to be true, and some of the structure may sound plausible in the context of CAPCOM’s broader release habits, but there is still a big gap between plausible and proven.
So the practical reading is simple. The rumor chain has produced one detail that seems to have some level of support, which is Ada Wong being tied to Resident Evil Requiem DLC. Beyond that, the supposed Devil May Cry 1 remake, Claire led RE10, and the full long term Resident Evil roadmap remain interesting but unsubstantiated claims. In other words, there is enough here to watch closely, but not enough to treat as a confirmed CAPCOM master plan.
Do you think CAPCOM should actually move ahead with a Devil May Cry 1 remake before Devil May Cry 6, or would a new mainline entry be the better next step for the series?
