RES 3 REMAKE
JUST as Capcom surprised us all with a Resident Evil 2 remake at the start of 2019, it looks like it could be about to do the same with Resident Evil 3.
Capcom has reportedly been working on a remake of the 1999 survival horror, tagged Resident Evil 3: Nemesis and we could see it released as early as 2020.
With all the hard work that went in to Res 2, it’s not a leap to say developers could be using the same engine and basic mechanics for Nemesis.
Horrifyingly good news for the New Year.
TRAVELLING INTO THE FUTURE
THE trailer for the 12th series of Doctor Who may have just been released, but work is already well underway for series 13.
Fans have been treated to a smattering for teasers from the new series, which sees Jodie Whittaker’s Doctor joined by companions Bradley Walsh, Mandip Gill, and Tosin Cole, inset.
While the new series is due to air in early 2020, series showrunner and head writer Chris Chibnall said the wheels are ‘very much in motion’ for series 13.
Speaking to the Radio Times, he said he and his team are already plotting ideas and storylines for where to take the Doctor and her friends in 2021 and beyond.
