Capcom have hinted at the development status of Resident Evil 5 in a recent interview with Lost Planet producer, Jun Takeuchi.
Speaking to Xboxgazette.com, Takeuchi stated the team "plan to use the same engine" for RE5 that they used for Lost Planet, Dead Rising and Devil May Cry 4. Considering this decision happens pre-production, its fairly obvious that the game has progressed little during the sixteen months since its initial unveiling.
