The ESRB website has recently updated the age rating for *Resident Evil 6*, maintaining its Mature 17+ rating but now also listing it for the Xbox Series. This suggests an upcoming re-release tailored for the latest console generation.

Originally launched in 2012 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, *Resident Evil 6* saw a remastered version in spring 2016 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. While the ESRB listing specifically mentions the Xbox Series, it's plausible that a PlayStation 5 version is also in the works, though no official announcements have been made yet.
The community is buzzing with speculation about what enhancements the new native version for current-generation consoles might offer over the previous remaster. The only noticeable change in the game's description on the ESRB site is a shift from being labeled as a "third-person shooter" to a "survival horror" game. This could hint at a renewed focus on the horror elements that the series is renowned for. More details are expected to be unveiled in a forthcoming full presentation.
Alongside this re-release news, fans are eagerly awaiting official word on the ninth installment in the *Resident Evil* series, rumored to be set four years after the events of *Resident Evil: Village*. This anticipation only adds to the excitement surrounding Capcom's iconic franchise.
