UK videogame Web site Spong recently posted an interview with Capcom's Keiji Inafune in which he makes a curious, matter-of-fact reference to Resident Evil 5... on the PC.
"As for Resident Evil 5, all we've done is shown the trailer and we've been instructed not to say anything more to anybody," Inafune told Spong. "Not just you press guys ... anyone. Other than it is scheduled for release next year on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360."
While the game has previously been announced for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, this would be the first reference -- anywhere -- to Resident Evil 5 making its way to the PC. Destructoid contacted Capcom to clear up any confusion.
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
PC can't HANDLE the RE5! You know its true. (Don't take away my bubbles guys, I'm just kidding).
I mean it seems very possible that Re5 will go on PC, I mean if you look it at in past.. It will go to the PC. I'm assuming this is just a time exclusive for the Consoles before shipping it to the PC.
I'm really getting tired of these two worlds sharing and getting close. Ever notice how much the X360 looks like a Pc when standing? Microsoft wants everyone to play PC and I don't want to. I don't like PC gaming and would like to see them separate. I want to play a console period.
The judge some of us like to tweak our games and have tons of choice. Some games for pc are just too complicated to do on a console. I wouldn’t suggest just owning a pc for gaming but I also wouldn’t suggest not owning one either as you miss out on some great games. A pc and a 360 are vastly different. The ps3 has more in common with a pc than the 360 does (free online gaming, the option to use a keyboard and mouse for games, a browser and the ability to hook up a printer).
Capcom didnt confirm 360 version just for MORE PEOPLE playing their games..
they did that for STH I dont know now..
