While the 2019 Resident Evil 2 game is a remake of the 1998 release, lots and lots of people are needed to make the game happen. Wonder how many? At least 800!
Thatās according to a recent NHK special on Capcom, as pointed out by Alex Aniel:
The most notable tidbit from last weekās Capcom NHK broadcast is that there were a whopping 800 (eight-hundred) people on #RE2 remakeās development. That includes programmers, photogrammetry models, mo-cap, etc. Thatās more than the roughly 600 who worked on RE6. pic.twitter.com/zsmIUvGvLv

Aniel adds that around 600 people worked on Resident Evil 6. So donāt think of the upcoming RE2 of a mere remake
