▲ It is reported that the full name of RE engine is "Reach for the Moon," which was originally designed for the game "Resident Evil 7" and has since been widely used in other games of Capcom. The engine Logo is an image of reaching for the moon, which symbolizes that "you can use it to turn your dream of developing games into reality."

The RE engine was created in 2014 at the beginning of Resident Evil 7's development, and was designed with Resident Evil 7's linear nature in mind to improve the efficiency of game development.

The reason the team didn't choose a third-party engine was that "highly versatile engines developed by other companies weren't suitable" for games like Resident Evil 7. Capcom's previous engine MT Framework was eventually evaluated and cancelled due to slow development tools and was not used for the project.

Capcom Development Division 1 head Jun Takeuchi previously said: "We have to rethink the way we make games. For global mainstream asset-based development (graphics and 3D model elements), we started developing a new RE engine."
