Capcom has confirmed that the Resident Evil 4 remake will be coming to the PS4.
Bucking the trend for a lot of upcoming releases, the highly anticipated Resident Evil 4 remake will be available on one last gen console — the PlayStation 4. As a remake of the 2005 release of Resident Evil 4, Capcom have "reimagined" the iconic entry and updated it for modern consoles.
