A group of enthusiasts revealed earlier this year a project to make a remake of Resident Evil Code: Veronica. This powerfully caught the attention of fans of the franchise, who for years have asked Capcom for a new version of said installment. In addition, the fan-made project surprised by its high quality.
We have bad news for you if you were waiting for the debut of this title, because Capcom stopped it just before its premiere. Its managers shared the news through social networks and explained that there is no possibility of continuing or launching the title in its current state.

Capcom stops fans Resident Evil Code: Veronica
“Unfortunately, Capcom contacted us and they canceled our projects. We are very sorry to tell you that they canceled it out of pure evil, as there are no signs that they are going to release a Code: Veronica official”, affirmed those responsible for the project.
The community began to investigate to find the reason for the cancellation, since Capcom had many months to send a cease and desist notice. However, he took action once the game was in an advanced stage of development and nearing release.
Many believe the cancellation was due to the fan group accepting donations. The community thinks that Capcom did not like the idea of someone outside generating profits with the name of their popular franchise.
However, those in charge of the remake assure that in reality the donations were not the problem. They claim that Capcom simply did it to protect the rights to use its saga and its characters. This has happened before in other similar cases, especially in which Nintendo is involved.
“Accepting donations was not the reason why Capcom decided to end our projects, but the fact of using the name of Capcom itself. resident Eviland Capcom characters, etc.,” the players added.
The remake page no longer has any of the fan-made material. You can only see a notice notifying that “Capcom decided to cancel the project.” At the time of writing this, the company has not commented on the matter.
Many believe that this could be an indication that Capcom is working on an official remake of said installment, but the fans in charge of the unofficial version insist that this is not the case.
Code Veronica and Resident Evil fan remakes are officially canceled by Capcom.
We apologize for the inconvenience and disappointment. All info on the developer discord. Thank you.
