Resident Evil’s legacy on PlayStation is undeniable, with fans flocking to every new release in the series. Whether adored or not, every game in this survival horror saga sparks excitement, especially when updates for current-generation consoles are announced.
### Resident Evil 5 and 6 Making Their Way to PS5
The buzz has started, thanks to the recent ESRB ratings spotted by gaming insider Wario64. It appears Resident Evil 5 and 6 are getting new releases. Curiously, the current ESRB listings mention only the Xbox Series consoles. Still, it’s reasonable to anticipate these updates hitting the PS5, given the franchise’s deep roots with PlayStation.
While some fans might be holding out for a full remake of Resident Evil 5, the close timing of these listings suggests these are merely ports rather than full-blown remasters. Generally, such ports don’t go beyond minor enhancements from last-gen versions. You might see a boost in resolution on the PS5, but don’t expect anything too drastic.
Both games, Resident Evil 5 and 6, are already purchasable on the PlayStation Store in their PS4 versions. Remarkably, they’re both on sale for just $4.99, and yes, you can enjoy them on a PS5.
Diving into a bit of history, Resident Evil 5 hit the shelves in 2009 and was well-received by critics, boasting a respectable score of 83 on Metacritic from 91 reviews. Contrast this with Resident Evil 6, released in 2012, which holds a more divisive reputation. Scoring 67 on Metacritic from 71 reviews, it’s often regarded as the most contentious entry in the main series line-up.
