The information comes from mp1st, which reports the new remake is under the codename Chamber, and that claims from leaker DuskGolem, a known Resident Evil leaker who claimed Resident Evil Code Veronica was getting a remake, are true. However, there is another remake in the works, and that is Resident Evil Zero, which is expected to be released in 2028. As for Code Veronica, that is expected to release in Q1 2027.

Mp1st shares some details on the casting for Zero, writing that Billy Coen, the game's second protagonist, will be played by Jon McLaren, who played Star Lord in the 2021 Guardians of the Galaxy game. McLaren currently has a title called Project Chamber in his resume, which is presumably the Resident Evil Zero remake.
