Capcom Ending Service for ‘Resident Evil Re:Verse’ in June

Sadly, though in what is a surprise to no one, Capcom has announced the decision to end service for Resident Evil Re:Verse. The third-person multiplayer title will end service for PC via Steam, PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One on June 29 at 11:59 p.m. PT / June 30 at 02:59 a.m. ET, with the game being removed from online storefronts on March 3 at 9:00 p.m. PT / March 4 at 12:00 a.m. ET.

“Resident Evil Re:Verse was developed in celebration of the 25th anniversary of the Resident Evil series, and your overwhelming support for the game has far exceeded our expectations since the time of its release,” states the new release from Capcom. “Now that we’ve reached a new turning point for the series, we feel that Resident Evil Re:Verse has served its original, celebratory purpose admirably.”

For those players who have purchased Re:Verse‘s Premium Pass or any RP Boosters, you can continue to play the game with any content you have unlocked/purchased until the service period ends. Unfortunately, once service ends, you won’t be able to play the game at all.

As Neil pointed out when the series turned 25, Capcom has seemingly had a difficult time in bringing Resident Evil online. Resident Evil Outbreak and its sequel, File #2, never did catch on the in West. And while Capcom seemed to finally get it right with Operation Raccoon City, things went back downhill with Umbrella Corps.

Things didn’t look good for Re:Verse when it was supposed to have shipped alongside Resident Evil Village in 2021, but faced several delays, including a Beta that had to be ended prematurely before the game finally released in 2022 to middling reviews.
