Also shown in the unlocked concept art (above left) is another enemy that never made it to the final cut of the game, known as the Licker Zombie. It looks like a humanoid version of the four-legged Licker, or a zombie with a Licker’s head, and similarly clawed hands. Given that Lickers are mutant humans infected with a particular strain of the T-Virus which can only be obtained from an already-mutated Zombie (known as the V-ACT process), it is possible that the Licker Zombie would have been a Licker that did not fully mutate yet and was only in its early sta
Besides heightening the user’s strength, endurance, mobility, and speed (negating any need for developing a “supersoldier serum”), the suit’s BLADE system puts an entire arsenal at the user’s disposal. Able to scan any battlefield weapon and essentially recreate it out of the suit’s own parts. Assault Rifles can switch to Sniper Rifles, to Rocket Launchers, and back again at the press of a button. That special ability alone offers a deadlier suit than simple body armor, but its ability to slow down time makes it one of the most underrated armors on the l
Lickers may also possibly be returning in Resident Evil 3 Remake, since they are present in Resident Evil Resistance. Resident Evil’s Lickers were not in the original Resident Evil 3 game, however. It is always a possibility we will see some exclusions, as well as new enemies, given that this transpired to a small degree in Resident Evil 2 Rema
Another aspect of Resident Evil 4 that was innovative for blustery mesa puzzle the time was its sense of scale, despite its linearity. Leon runs through rural Spanish villages, mineral mines, gothic castles, modern military installations, etc. Even in its 15-20 hour runtime, players travel to such an interesting variety of locales that the game is perceived to be much grander than it is. Even now, as the game creeps up to 15 years old, the world of Resident Evil 4 has a sense of sprawl balanced perfectly with its actual size. Now with modern technology allowing for higher graphical fidelity, a remake could see that scale expanded with larger highly detailed environments further beyond what the GameCube was capable of. Invoking that sense of scale that was so impactful in the original game would be perfect for a Resident Evil 4 rem
There are strong suggestions that Raccoon City’s descent into zombie-anarchy and lawlessness will be more deeply explored. More insight may be given of the transitional phase of the story and the few days of buildup leading towards the majority of the Raccoon City’s population changing from human to infected zomb
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
Hot off the heels of its Donkey Kong Country successes, Rare had quickly become one of Nintendo’s most important partners in the industry. The studio was then entrusted with creating a game based on the James Bond film GoldenEye 007 , and before it became one of the most critically-acclaimed FPS games of all time, it went through a couple of other iterati
Capcom has had quite the resurgence lately, coming off huge wins from the success of Devil May Cry 5 and Monster Hunter World, but an even larger contributor to Capcom’s run has come from the Resident Evil series. Both Resident Evil 2 Remake and more recently Resident Evil 3 Remake have seen massive success, showing that the franchise that many fans decided had lost its way was finally making a comeback, even if some are fully satisfied with RE3 . It seems Capcom wishes to keep the ball rolling, as reports have begun popping up that Resident Evil 4 is on deck for the next overh
Resident Evil 4 represents a completely different challenge compared to the recently released remakes. Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 both initially came out on the first PlayStation console way back in 1998 and 1999, respectively. Sony’s first console didn’t have the luxury of rendering highly complex character models or 3D environments, storing larger amounts of data, and any other modern conveniences games from the mid-to-late 2000s onward have. Resident Evil 4 came out for the GameCube in 2005, and though it wasn’t necessarily the first fully dimensional Resident Evil game, it was the first to take advantage of next-generation hardware to craft a highly detailed wo
Borderlands is known for its cel-shaded art style and quirky sense of humor, but if plans didn’t change during development, it could have been a much different game. When Borderlands was first announced, it sported a darker tone and realistic graphics to ma
Resident Evil 3 Remake is almost ready to unleash itself, and many fans are relishing in excitement over the modern adaptions of some of its most iconic monstrosities which the series is known for. While many monsters have still yet to be confirmed for the Resident Evil 3 Remake , there are a few which have been confirmed to make their return, including possible new enemy types in Resident Evi
