Resident Evil 5 Producer Jun Takeuchi Will Not Produce a 6th Installment.

After a year of Resident Evil 5, everyone has been waiting for the announcement of the next installment in the series, Resident Evil 6.

Resident Evil 5 producer Jun Takeuchi has said that Resident Evil 6 would be a, “total reboot” to the series.

Unfortunately, producer Jun Takeuchi said that he will not be involved in 6.

“I’m not involved in Resident Evil 6. There’s actually a number of things I want to do.”

“If I say it like that, it might be taken as ‘next game,’ but before reaching the step of making a game, we — Japanese developers — have a lot of things that we must do. To begin, I have a number of things I’d like to do related to Capcom as a whole.”

Looks like we have to see who will fill his spot for the next installment.
