The ESRB website has recently updated the age rating for Resident Evil 6, maintaining its Mature 17+ classification. What's caught the attention of fans is the addition of a new platform: the game is now listed for Xbox Series.

Originally released in 2012 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, Resident Evil 6 saw a remastered version in spring 2016 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. This new listing suggests that a re-release is in the works, not just for Xbox Series but potentially for PlayStation 5 as well, though no official announcement has been made yet.
The community is buzzing with speculation about what enhancements the native version for current-generation consoles might offer over the previous remaster. The only noticeable change so far is in the game's description. While earlier versions were categorized as a "third-person shooter," the new listing labels it as a "survival horror" game. More details are expected to emerge during a full presentation.
Alongside this re-release, fans are eagerly awaiting news on the ninth installment in the series. Rumors suggest that it will be set four years after the events of Resident Evil: Village.
