And is a free upgrade for those who already own it on PS4 and Xbox One.

Resident Evil 2, 3 and current-gen upgrades are coming later in 2022 and will be free to those who already own the titles on PS4 and Xbox One.

“Developed using Capcom’s proprietary RE Engine, all three titles will tout cutting-edge features including ray tracing, high frame rate and 3D audio to enhance the immersion of the award-winning experiences. For PlayStation 5 players, all three titles also feature engaging DualSense support for Haptic Feedback and Adaptive Triggers,” Capcom said in a press release.

Specifics surrounding resolution, frame rates and whether or not the game will have different performance or fidelity options were not provided.

Capcom confirmed that Xbox versions of the titles will support Smart Delivery, so will automatically upgrade when available. On PlayStation, a “PS4 to digital PS5 upgrade option” will be available. Capcom also advised that an upgrade patch will also be provided to users on PC at no additional cost.
