Daymare 1998 started as a fan-made Resident Evil 2 remake, which was canceled when Capcom announced an official remake version, which released in early 2019. The Invader Studios development crew then met with Capcom at Capcom’s Japanese headquarters to switch gears toward an original game with a nostaglic style.

The Daymare 1998 PS4 release will get a physical disc and digital download, while Xbox One players will have to go the digital store route only. While Invader Studios handled the game’s original development on PC, Slipgate Studios was tasked with the console ports.
