Several weeks ago, the video game publisher and developer Capcom revealed its intentions to create even more remakes of its properties after the forthcoming multi-platform release of the new Resident Evil 2. Now, it looks as if the third entry in the long-running survival-horror franchise could eventually see its own updated version come to be in the future, as the company recently talked about the possibility of the original 1999 PlayStation game getting a remake, too.

According to Resident Evil 2 Game Director Kazunori Kadoi and Producer Yoshiaki Hirabayashi, Capcom could be leaving the door open to a Resident Evil 3: Nemesis remake once the RE2 remake officially hits store shelves. When asked about the prospect of Capcom giving RE3: Nemesis the remake treatment, Kadoi and Hirabayashi said, “We are currently focused on Resident Evil 2 remake, getting it out of the door and seeing how everyone receives it in January, but who knows what the future holds.”

While this doesn't necessarily confirm that a Resident Evil 3: Nemesis remake is in the works, it does show that Capcom is keeping an open mind about the third entry being revised and re-released for contemporary players. So far, droves of survival-horror fans have been practically drooling over all of the assets released thus far for the Resident Evil 2 remake, indicating that there's definitely a large and willing audience who would be excited to see what Capcom could do with RE3: Nemesis as well.

All things considered, we will simply have to wait and see if Capcom decides to officially announce a Resident Evil 3: Nemesis remake project getting green lit. It's definitely not too far outside the realm of possibility, but a new RE3: Nemesis likely won't come to pass if the RE2 remake doesn't succeed financially. Nevertheless, with the latter having been named Best of Show at E3 2018, it definitely stands a fair chance at becoming a blockbuster.
