Shinji Mikami is a creative who earned a place in the industry for being one of the main people in charge of creating resident Evil and other major franchises from Tango Gameworks, Capcom, and PlatinumGames. Well, a publication circulates online in which he stated a collaboration with these last 2 companies to work on an exciting project… but is it true?
A few hours ago there was talk of a message that Shinji Mikami would have shared on Facebook in which he reveals that he is working on an unannounced “remake game”, but the most striking thing is that it would be a Tango Gameworks project in conjunction with PlatinumGames and Capcom .
“We are happy to make this remake game! Thanks to all the team involved to finish the game!” is read in part of the message.

Is the real Shinji Mikami working on a remake?
Naturally, at first this excited many fans who are waiting for the return of Viewtiful Joe, God Hand, okami, Dino Crisisor even a remake of the resident Evil original. However, many felt that this was too good to be true, so they were more cautious and wondered if this post was true, especially after seeing the way the message was worded in Japanese.
Twitter has made it clear to us, especially in recent days, that it’s easy for anyone to pose as a public figure. With that said, many netizens began to suspect that this message might come from someone impersonating the real Shinji Mikami.
It is difficult to know if the account in question belongs to Shinji Mikami himself. But it is important to note that there is no other Shinji Mikami Facebook account that is known to be official.
Regarding the message on Facebook, it’s no longer availablesince in the end the profile was put in private and it is impossible to see information about it.
In case you missed it: Tango Gameworks’ first and only mobile game flopped and recently stopped working.
However, there are users who claim that the account seems very real. In fact, there is a user who refers that he saw the profile before it was made private and in it he found that he saw interaction of the account with his fans and that even in the list of followers there were developers like Fumito Ueda (Shadow of the Colossus) or that the account contained original photos of the developer. In fact, I would have recently made a post.
Secondly, Shinji Mikami’s Twitter account (which is known to be official, albeit without the controversial verification stamp) has not commented on it.
In this situation, it is also important to take into account that Mikami is a person with a lot of experience in the industry, so it is difficult for him to have made the mistake of talking about a project in advance without officially revealing it.
Faced with this mystery and without the possibility of obtaining more information about it to help clarify it, ResetEra marked this post as false. Similarly, we invite you to take this message, because so far there is no way to know if it was made by the real Shinji Mikami.
