The Hook Man version of Resident Evil 4 wasn’t possible at the time, because the concept required that Leon could slip into a hallucination at any moment, requiring two possible versions of every environment.
Since this information is coming from an unverified source it should be treated with a hefty dose of salt, but the account has been close to the mark on other rumors, such as the release date of the one-shot Resident Evil 2 demo. The account also claims the game will borrow a number of concepts from the Hook Man version, including hallucinations and the titular creature himself. In light of the success of Resident Evil 2 and the resurgence of the series, a Twitter account called Evil VR (via Twisted Voxel) reports Capcom is already at work on Resident Evil 8. This version of Resident Evil 4 was scrapped due to technical limitations of the GameCube.

The original concept was such a departure it eventually evolved in Devil May Cry instead, but another was labeled the Hook Man version. This would become a recurring theme during development on the mainline series, with Resident Evil 4 going through four separate ideas before arriving at the final product.
The original Resident Evil 2 famously shifted direction during development, with one version of the game - dubbed Resident Evil 1.5 - being scrapped completely. The series had taken a long detour into action and co-op in the years prior to part seven, but it seems survival horror is definitely making a comeback. The game is firmly rooted in the franchise’s survival horror roots, just like previous title Resident Evil VII: Biohazard. The long-awaited remake of Resident Evil 2 has proven to be a huge success of Capcom, both in terms of sales and reviews. Resident Evil 8 is rumored to be in development over at Capcom.
