There have been rumors floating around about the upcoming announcement of Resident Evil 7 at E3, and some voices even alleged that it would be a Xbox One exclusive. The latter won’t be the case according to an article on the website of the prominent Japanese Economic newspaper Sankei Shimbun.

The article mentions that for what PS4 games are concerned, Capcom plans to reveal an important game at E3, and that is expected to be Resident Evil 7. It also specifies that the sales expectations for the game are to sell over 5.6 million copies like its predecessor.

While only a PS4 version is named, the wording of the article does not suggest exclusivity. Considering that it’s a Japanese source, it’s most probable that the game will be multiplatform. It’s normal for Japanese articles to mention only PlayStation versions of titles they mention, especially on mainstream media.

Of course this should be considered a rumor until Capcom makes an official announcement. We’ll have to stand by and wait for June to see if the Sankei Shimbun is right about it.

Not that hard to believe. It didn't make any sense when the report came that RE7 would be X1 exclusive and it seems this rumour supports this.

Really not surprising

Since the last abomination had Chris and Leon i want this one to have Jill and Claire

Considering it sells pretty well across Xbox and PlayStation Capcom would be pretty stupid to make it exclusive to one or the other. I mean unless Sony or MS money-hat it with a crap ton of $$$, which in my opinion would be a waste that could of gone to making a new game instead.

That's a boring poster. It doesn't look like giraffes at all :(

They can't make it exclusive and expect to sell 5.6 million copies, so it will come on X1 and probably also on PC.

If there was a game that needed a reset, this is it. Good for those that like the series, I don't at all.

They won't sell 5.6 million. I expect big losses.

Over 5.6 million copies seems like an awful lot, especially since 6 erased a lot of the good will fans had for the series.

On a personal note, I look at that poster and experience no joy whatsoever. A generation ago that kind of reaction would be impossible.

I just want my old Resident Evil back. Heck, I'd settle for a game modeled after 5, which at least played well, even if it broke from the series' conventions.
