Good if true.

The Original Trilogy deserves to be on PC officially.

(especially 3, where the Remake was a disaster)

PC Gamer and IGN have also picked up on it now:

Interesting to note that PEGI have the release date listed as today, which seems a little too soon.
Hopefully, we're getting the other classics too!

ok thx

[WhitePhantom]

Hopefully this is the start of them releasing all the classics on PC in the lead up to the 30th anniversary.

[Powellinho.72]

would literally be a dream come true.

[L'Orca77]

Hopefully it'll be the original uncut version like the PC version back in 1997.

Would totally buy if they did something similar to the TRI-III Remastered, but honestly if it's just the 1996 RE1 I wouldn't be so interested. The only classic RE game I'd buy individually if it ever gets a Steam release is RECV.

I can see them pairing it with RE 2 atleast, and RE 3. RE 2 they know alot of people like, but i would personally buy them seperate.

Im here to play them again.

[No, not this one, please.]

Everyone speculate on what Capcom could possible censor:

[GrantBitman]

That's not gonna happen, not falling for it.

[LesterTheFlaccid]

It won't have the same effort put into it as Seamless Hd Project, so why bother?

It's just a rumor anyway. There was a rumor last year or two years ago when Capcom uploaded pictures of the old inventory's on their Facebook account, and it turned out to be a false hope.

Age Rating boards reviewing games ready for release is pretty solid evidence in my book.
I'd expect we might see it officially revealed at the next CAPCOM Showcase, whenever that will be.

[Powellinho.72]

theres no chance they lump dino crisis into the re collection. they will do that seperate, more money for them.

[Comkill117]

I hope they do a classic RE trilogy port. The originals deserve to be here too.

Imagine a generation never getting to experience what it's like to almost be a Jill-Sandwich. That'd be a tragedy.
