“Resident Evil Re: Verse was developed in celebration of the 25th anniversary of the Resident Evil series, and your overwhelming support for the game has far exceeded our expectations since the time of its release,” Capcom said. “Now that we’ve reached a new turning point for the series, we feel that Resident Evil Re: Verse has served its original, celebratory purpose admirably.
“We are incredibly grateful for your warm support for Resident Evil Re: Verse, and we deeply apologize for bringing you this disappointing news.”
While critics and fans of the original were heavily disappointed with the release of the Re: Verse alongside Resident Evil 3 Remake, some people did like the premise and the potential Re: verse had to offer. It’s sad to see Capcom shutting down the game, but we hope they will take the lesson from Re: verse core design and improve it on the next release.
