Throughout Resident Evil’s long history, the survival-horror franchise not only introduced players to a list of heroes and villains that have since become icons in the video game industry, but also to a wide variety of monsters that haunted the nightmares of players. Now, Resident Evil 3 remake is merely days away from release and Capcom has already revealed the monsters that are confirmed to appear in the upcoming g
Of course, while finally revisiting Jill Valentine, Carlos Oliveria, All Flux Construct Locations and the utterly horrifying Nemesis is the next big experience for the franchise, it is worth wondering where Resident Evil’s newfound enthusiasm with revisiting its roots will lead following the remake’s release. While many fans are naturally hoping Capcom might return to the likes of Code Veronica or even the first game in the series, it’s also worth considering whether the third game’s groundbreaking sequel, Resident Evil 4 , would – or more importantly even should – receive a full remake in the same vein as Resident Evil 2 an
Whether or not they agree that revisiting Resident Evil 4 should be the next major step for the series going forward, nobody can deny that Capcom ‘s work over the last few years is quickly ushering in an incredibly bright future for the franchise going forward. Here’s to hoping that Resident Evil 3 will be yet another stellar stepping stone to more incredible Resident Evil games in the future, whether that leads to a remake of the fourth game or a new title entir
Personality-wise, Capcom did introduce some slight changes to Jill Valentine in the upcoming remake. In previous trailers, gameplay previews, and the RE 3 playable demo , it is evident that Capcom has increased Jill’s badass traits as compared to previous Resident Evil games. In the opening sequence of the demo alone, we saw Jill make sarcastic comments during a conversation with Carlos Oliveria and Mikhail Viktor. Of course, looking at it closely, the spirit of the scene remains consistent with that of the original. The U.B.C.S. asked to partner with Jill, she was reluctant at first, but she agreed anyway knowing that it would increase the chances of her survi
Sliding Worms are actually the offspring of Grave Diggers, and these slippery and slimy threats are confirmed to make their return to Resident Evil 3 Remake . The Grave Digger lay eggs in the sewers, quickly hatching and giving birth to these foul creatures. They are about 1 meter in length, and resemble snakes without eyes. They have fangs and are capable of leaping towards the player. They are blood suckers which will attempt to latch on to their prey much like giant leeches. Should they fully live out their life-cycle, each one can potentially become a gigantic Grave Dig
To those who are not so well-versed in Resident Evil’s long history, Jill Valentine is one of the first playable characters in Resident Evil, and many claim that she is also the first female playable character in a survival-horror game. When Capcom first introduced Jill, she is described as a capable police officer, whose strengths include her compassionate nature, a strong sense of justice, and her ability to work well under extreme pressure. It is fairly difficult to go in-depth on Jill’s personality during the first Resident Evil game, since she barely had any, given that Capcom’s priority at this point in Resident Evil’s history was to introduce strong survival-horror gamep
Given this, the personalities of both playable characters weren’t as fleshed-out, especially when compared to modern games. However, based on dialogue alone, Jill did not really embody the traits of a traditional video game heroine, and while she is capable enough to handle the situation she’s in, she lacked the flair and personality that is common in today’s video game protagonist. But in retrospect, even if it wasn’t intentional, Capcom’s portrayal of Jill in the first Resident Evil game does make sense, given that this game served as her origin story. Prior to the mansion incident, Jill has no experience in dealing with bioweapons, so it wouldn’t really make sense to portray her as a badass bioweapon killing machine when this is the first time that she even knew bioweapons exis
Resident Evil 3 Remake ‘s version of the Grave Digger has changed quite a bit too. The creature’s mouth is now much larger than it was previously, but actually seems to sport fewer teeth. Though that may seem like it would make the Grave Digger less scary, in reality the fleshy interior of this beast and the way its entire face unfolds is the stuff of nightmare. Not much has been shown of this experiment gone wrong aside from this one screenshot, though, so it is difficult to say what else about the creature developers might have chan
It’s also worth taking into account that Resident Evil 4 isn’t exactly hard to get hold of in 2019, with ports of the sequel making their way to PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Gamecube, Wii, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, the Nintendo Switch , PC, and even mobile. If fans want to revisit Leon’s high-octane adventure to rescue the president’s daughter from the clutches of the undead, they don’t even need to dust off their long-forgotten PlayStation 2’s to jump right back
