Earlier this month, Capcom lifted the lid on some next-gen goodness for Resident Evil 2,3 and 7. All three Xbox One era RE games are getting Series X|S ports later this year, and now the developer has revealed some extra details.
Save data for all three games will carry over, hurrah! So, if you started, or finished these games on Xbox One, you can bring those save files over the Xbox Series X|S. This welcome news applies to all three titles.
Specifically for Resident Evil 7, any additional DLC will also come forward. The Gold Edition of Resident Evil 7 contained some add-ons, including three premium expansions. They'll all work on the next-gen version of RE7.
When all three games do arrive, they'll be nicely spruced up, including ray tracing features, higher frame rates and 3D audio support.
Will you be playing any of these Resident Evil games on Xbox Series X|S? Let us know below.

This is great! I've played through re2 with Claire's story, and re3 up to the end, but haven't finished either properly. This is just the nudge I need.
Great for my next Resident Evil circuit.
Any word if these are Smart Delivery upgrades? Separate downloads? Paid upgrades?
@Tharsman These will be free upgrades. However, Capcom hasn't yet revealed whether they'll be native Series X|S ports or enhanced last-gen versions. Given that these all run One X enhanced code already, I'd assume they'll be native ports. Hopefully we hear more soon!
Could they go back and atleast upres Resident Evil 1?
4 I'm fine without because VR is pretty much THE way to play it.
I don’t know why, but I was already assuming that these would would carry over the saves to the X/S. Maybe that was naïve of me to assume that. I guess it’s what I’ve become accustomed to while gaming on Xbox.
@EvilSilentFrame Same here, I was expecting this and also smart delivery and fortunately both are the case on Xbox.
@Banjo- a much better job with these RE games compared to GTA V. I had never played that one as it didn’t really interest me. They have to buy it again to get the benefits and then the saves take a little more to upload them to the updated version. I’m very thankful for smart delivery.
@EvilSilentFrame Yep that's right. The other ways are cumbersome and not always free.
