In 2019’s remake of Resident Evil 2 , players were given a glimpse of what it’s like to roam the zombie-infested streets of Raccoon City. However, given that the game mostly took place inside the Raccoon City police station , sewer, and Umbrella laboratory, players weren’t really able to see just how bad the outbreak hit the once peaceful community. In 1999’s Resident Evil 3, players were able to see more of Raccoon City, but due to hardware limitations at that time, the city mostly comprised of narrow alleyways and out of place do
Taking pros and cons for whether a Resident Evil 4 remake is necessary to one side, the game would also sell incredibly well for Capcom, which is surely a more corporate reason for the title to get a modern facelift. The fourth game remains a staple of its lineup (hence its constant re-releases on later platforms), meaning that it’s no doubt a big moneymaker for the company and one that would succeed if eventually redesigned for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series
One feature that is lacking from Resident Evil 4 is the ability to run and shoot at the same time. This feature was later introduced in RE6 , while RE4 relied on a “stop and pop” mechanic rather than “run and g
Yet, it’s worth remembering that Resident Evil 4 is undeniably one of the series’ most pivotal entries. The action-centric format that eventually went onto define the later games in the series was done to perfection in 4 , with the game completely reinventing what it meant to play a Resident Evil title . It goes without saying that while a remake might not be as utterly transformative as games like Resident Evil 2 and the upcoming remake of the third game, there’s still a lot of merit in updating Resident Evil 4’s combat and clunky controls to show just how incredible the adventure game strategy‘s core gameplay and set of mechanics were back in the day. Fixing the aiming so players can move while shooting and adding some of the incredible nuances that made Resident Evil 2 such an immersive next step for the series would go a long way if added to the fourth game, especially if done so alongside a major visual overha
Additionally, these red barrels and electrical generators would also give players a chance to strategize their use. Should players use the red barrel now to kill a few zombies, or would it be better to save it for later when Nemesis shows up? This returning feature definitely adds another layer to the game’s survival-horror mechanic where resource management is k
There’s a good chance that Capcom is paying close attention to this outcry and may met demands sooner than later. But who knows how long that will take? Fans of the series were asking for a RE2 remake for years before finally getting their wish. And even if Code: Veronica isn’t the very next remake, the idea will likely still be on the table for the future. In other words, there is still h
It is important to recall that in Resident Evil 2 , the outbreak actually started a few days earlier, on September 23, when Dr. William Birkin infected himself with the G-Virus and contaminated Raccoon City’s sewers and water supply with the T-Vi
The Licker Zombie appears to be a regular zombie with a Licker’s head and iconic tongue. This creature is shown in concept art that can be unlocked in Resident Evil 2 remake where the licker zombie was supposed to appear in. The origins of the Licker Zombie remains unclear, but it is possible that these monsters are Lickers that still haven’t fully transformed. Another popular theory surrounding these monsters is that they are the result of Lickers infecting a zombie host. It is also unclear why this monster never made it to Resident Evil 2 remake given that its appearance alone looks terrifying, but it would be awesome to see this monster come to life in Resident Evi
However, will Resident Evil 3 remake only stick to monsters that were seen in the original 1999 title? Or will it introduce new monsters from other Resident Evil games or even creatures that were never seen before? Although there is no way to know until Resident Evil 3’s release to know for sure, here is a list of some monsters that we think would be great additions to Resident Evil 3 rema
Resident Evil 4 is a critically-acclaimed masterpiece that some believe to be the greatest game of all time. A next-gen remake, using the RE engine, has incredible potential to recreate magic. And considering that many fans and critics alike hail the series as something extraordinary, the hype would be through the r
Another insight worth noting from the new trailer is the scene of Jill looking in the mirror while she is seemingly ill and infected. We can assume this is probably after the point that her and Carlos rest in the church for some time, after the Nemesis infects her with the T-Virus. To some close observing fans, it can seem peculiar how much time went by in the actual timeline between Jill resting in the church before Resident Evil 2 began, and October 1st, when the Resident Evil 3 gameplay timeline resumed and Carlos set out to find a cure for Jill in the hospi
