IGN had the chance to speak to Capcom corporate officer Christian Svensson who recently stated that piracy was the reason to blame for poor DMC 4 PC sales. Concluding the interview, IGN asked if Resident Evil 5 will head to the PC, and Svensson commented that the team are big fans of the PC however Capcom's financials may prevent a PC release. Essentially we should stay tuned as things are not clear...

IGN: Finally [taking into account the rumors], our readers want to know, is Resident Evil 5 coming to the PC?
Svensson: I know that Inafune-san and I are both huge proponents of the PC platform and Capcom is an active participant in the PCGA. We do believe in the future of the platform and that contrary to what retail data shows, it is growing. Our rosy prognostications aside, somewhere the P&Ls of Capcom Japan's outings on the platform are going to come up and they are likely to have a bearing on the decision making process for future titles. That's my longwinded way of saying "stay tuned because it's not clear yet".
