Resident Evil 6 “could take up to 8 years”

Speaking to The Gadget Show’s Jason Bradbury, Resident Evil 5’s producer Masachika Kawata has revealed that Resident Evil 6 could be in development for up to eight years.

When asked by The Gadget Show whether the timeframe between Resident Evil 5 and 6 will be similar to that of 4 and 5, Kawata replied:

“We haven’t decided whether we’re going to make Resident Evil 6 yet. But if we do, it could take anywhere up to eight years, but hopefully only four.”

Resident Evil 5 released just under two weeks ago, and while we didn’t think it was quite as good as Resi 4, its spot at the top of the charts proved that you all love it.

And with Capcom claiming that Resi 5 set the franchise up for a new direction, a sixth has to be on the cards, doesn’t it?
