Too good to be true? Possible new Resident Evil arcade game in the works

Don’t be surprised if you stumble upon a new Biohazard arcade game while traversing Japan some time in the near future, as it appears the voice behind the Red Queen in The Umbrella Chronicles was doing a little double duty while in the recording studio for the Wii title we’ve all been playing. It hasn’t been officially confirmed by Capcom at this point, but Tara Platt had some interesting things to say during an interview with Rombie of the Resident Evil fan site:

“The Japanese-based Biohazard is a game console that is available as an arcade game in Japan – and I mean an actual arcade standing game. It was wonderful getting to play Jill – she’s such a fierce character with determination and strength. Unfortunately, I don’t have much more info than that, but I’m going to Japan this year, and you can bet I’ll be on the look-out for the game in Arcades there!”

As exciting as this sounds to a fellow RE fan, it would be much sweeter if the rumor involved a land a little bit closer to home. Anything you’d like to tell us, Capcom?
