In fact, one of the remake's most critically acclaimed features was its faithful resurrection of the systems and mechanics first established in the fourth game, with many citing Resident Evil 2's remake as a return to form for the franchise's classic formula.

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 game's core gameplay and set of mechanics were back in the day.

Ever since their introduction in Resident Evil 2 , Lickers became one of the most feared and most popular enemies in the Resident Evil franchise. Similar to Crimson Heads, Lickers are mutations from severely injured zombies, but this mutation is caused by a separate t-Virus strain. Lickers are known for their large exposed brains and extremely long tongue. Although these creatures do not have the ability to see, they are extremely sensitive to sound and are able to hunt their prey just by listening to their movements. Although Lickers were present in Raccoon City during the Outbreak, Jill Valentine wasn't able to encounter them, but it will be interesting to see whether these monsters will be present in the remake, especially inside the police stat


The excitement for the remake of Resident Evil 3 is at an all time high as the first trailer was finally released on today's State of Play livestream , confirming an April 3, 2020 release date on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. There are some key takeaways fans can gather from the trailer and everything that has been revealed today, which may clue us in to what changes, insights, and additions the storyline of Resident Evil 3's remake could ent


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


As of the moment, it is pretty hard to tell whether Capcom was able to surpass Resident Evil 2 with Resident Evil 3 remake for sales, given that the reception for the latest reimagining is mixed. Unlike 2019's Resident Evil 2 , Resident Evil 3 remake is significantly different than its original counterpart. Sure, the major plot points of the game still remain true to some extent, but Capcom has been more liberal in switching events around this time. Many players welcomed the changes, but some hardcore fans were not happy with how the game turned out to be, and others criticized it for being too short and leaning too much on action-heavy eleme


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 Adventure Game Maps 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


Like Borderlands , Conker's Bad Fur Day went through some major revisions that made it a much more unique and arguably more interesting game. Rare's original vision for it was that of a typical, kid-friendly 3D platformer in the vein of Super Mario 64 and Banjo-Kazooie , called Conker's Quest and later Twelve Tales: Conker 64 . These early versions of the game even had Conker's girlfriend Berri as a playable character in stages that featured strategy gameplay, as well as split-screen co-op for the st


It is important to take note of the way the lighting and shadows block out the full picture of the Nemesis in the new trailer, as even Jill probably did not have time to get a clear look at the creature, other than deciphering something big and threatening stalking her. Therefore, this can still setup the first 'clear' encounter with the Nemesis in similar fashion to the original game's timeline in the story, without any major chan


Additionally, Resident Evil 3 lacks build-up and most of the time it feels like the game expects that its already players know Resident Evil 3's story and characters from the original game. Moreover, every encounter with Nemesis is scripted , which takes away the element of surprise similar to Resident Evil 2's Mr. X, and while Nemesis is definitely more terrifying than the original, his appearances are mostly predicta


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


One returning location that players will be able to explore is the Stagla gas station from the 1999 game. Resident Evil 3 veterans would remember that it is in the gas station where the oil can be found, which has to be mixed with an oil additive before it can be used to restart the cable car. Players would also remember that immediately after leaving the area, the gas station would blow up, and it will be interesting to see whether this will also happen in the rem
