Rumours from Japan that Resi 5 will be 360 exclusive have been shot down by Capcom
Word from Japan had suggested that Resident Evil 5 will be exclusive to Xbox 360 for a year but that's not the case, Capcom tells us this morning...
"Resident Evil 5 will release on PS3 and Xbox 360 as announced. There a no plans for an exclusive with the game", a spokesperson from the company told us.
They went on to add that it's still very early days for the sequel, which means, unfortunately, it's likely to be some considerable time before anything of the project is seen outside of Capcom HQ.
Resident Evil 5 launched 15 years ago today - and it continues to stand as a stepping stone from the good to the bad.
One of my favourites because of the co-op. Then Resi 6 arrived and the series nosedived further.
I enjoyed the game co-oping with a friend I know the game in solo the AI can be an idiot but RE5 is way better then RE6. I played RE6 with a friend if it wasn't cheap when I got I would have avoided RE6.
5 was excellent, still play Mercs with my brother.
I would love a fully remastered RE:5, with some added, reworked content. The DLC for 5 was also excellent.
6 was awful.
I never understood why the game was misunderstood. It was a fantastic game at launch and is still fun today to play. It’s as action packed as Resident Evil 4 was, yet that’s regarded a masterpiece 🤷♂️
it was "misunderstood" because they introduced co-op into the franchise at a time when people loved to have fake rage about co-op. like, you could play the game as a solo experience, but people chose to have their bandwagon rage because it was cool at the time lol

An exploration of whether RE5 is truly the most logical next step for a remake, or whether there are others in line who deserve their day in the sun.
Remake of Resident evil outbreak as well as file 2. Same gameplay as the recent remakes. Choose what ever character you want to play as. With online co op.
Nope.
Rather remake other past Capcom & non-mainline RE games ... IF they have to continue churning out Remakes.
I'd rather want a new 3rd person RE spin-off
Dino Crisis and Onimusha Reboot
New IPs after Pragmata ships
Resident Evil 5 exclusive to 360? psshh! how dare they even consider the possibility.
I like the 360 and all, but RE 5 exclusivity is a little far fetched.
So I'll be getting it for my xbox 360 since it willbe my console of choice this generation. All the sonyfanboys that were sweating you can relax now. No need for more damage control.
Well I for one am happy that they aren't going to rush this title. They can take as long as they need to make sure it's going to be great.
Seriously games like (not hating just stating) Ridge Racer 7 which Ridge Racer 6 isn't even a year old. Same with Call of Duty 3... umm 2 isn't even a year old either. So good for Capcom to say hey we need time
The only downside of this is that last post (the one that got removed about the rumor) had some of the best posts this site has seen in a long while...even the usual diehards became very civil and well spoken.
Oh well, its not like anyone on this site actually believed it was going exclusive.
