Resident Evil 3 Remake , still fresh from release in April, has successfully continued to enrich the Resident Evil universe by recreating past installments of the series. With a rumored Resident Evil 4 Remake in the works, and potentially new story elements that will link the plot to the Nemesis monster in Resident Evil 3 , there is still plenty in Resident Evil’ s past worth delving into with more insi

Resident Evil 8 new UI is said to resemble both Resident Evil 7 and Resident Evil 4 , and the sequel would feature a new currency system, a first-person perspective, and multiple returning characters including Ethan, Mia, and Chris Redfield. While a few of the details are yet to be properly explained or elaborated on by Capcom, so far, all of the early rumors for Resident Evil: Village have been spot on. Additional rumors have also expanded on a new playable character called Emily that aids Ethan while searching for her missing father, the use of a flashlight (seen at the beginning of the trailer), large outdoor areas, and three new villains known as Alan R., Natalia, Elden Ring Gameplay mechanics and the return of Alex Wesker from Resident Evil: Revelations

Earlier this year, Capcom released its latest remake, which is a reimagining of the events of Resident Evil 3 . Of course, given the success of the RE2 remake one year prior, fans had high expectations on the Resident Evil 3 remake. Unfortunately, when the game finally released last April, fans were a bit disappointed by how far the RE3 remake strayed from the original . Sure, it still retained the basic premise of RE3 but the sequence of events has been reshuffled so much that it is barely recognizable from the origi

When Resident Evil 4 first released on Gamecube in 2005, it not only transformed the Resident Evil series into a third-person action game with horror elements, but Resident Evil 4 set the bar for quality game design and technological achievement for action-gaming at the t

However, the one thing that disappointed fans the most is the content of the original that never made it to the remake. Several locations such as the Raccoon City park, the Undead factory, and the Clock Tower were either scrapped, replaced, or unexplored. A few enemies such as the giant worm, spiders, and many more were also not featured in the remake. Of course, the overall plot is still the same, but fans were not happy that the Resident Evil 3 remake was split in two with the first half being the main game, and the second half featuring Resident Evil Resistance, which some fans blame to be the reason for Resident Evil 3’s demise. Despite the criticisms though, Capcom said that while the commercial performance of Resident Evil 3 remake pales in comparison to its predecessor, it is what the studio expected, given that RE2 has always been more popular than R

In Resident Evil 4 , Albert Wesker dispatches both Ada Wong, and the mostly forgettable Krauser to infiltrate the Los Iluminados, to gain a sample of a Dominant Las Plagas parasite. Overall, however, Resident Evil 4 ‘s plot, main villains and its Las Plagas monstrosities remain a confusing detail to the story and overall universe, given their mysterious autonomy from the series, and unclear orig

The larger development team makes sense given the length of the game compared to RE 2 and RE3 , and supports additional leaks that Resident Evil 4 would have an “expanded story.” According to Twitter user AestheticGamer1, another known source for leaks with a good reputation in the industry, RE4 Remake will focus on expanding the story of the original game and players can expect to see more and larger changes than anything done in RE2 or RE3 . One example given related to the character Dr Salvador, who is said to be getting more screentime and an expanded backstory in the RE4 rema

In the larger picture of the universe, Resident Evil’ s Umbrella , its research, and its past creations of bio-weaponry have usually played as the backbone of the series lore, history and dark world, even long after Umbrella shutdown. For example, after Resident Evil 4 , the next games, Resident Evil 5 and 6 , and even 7 to a degree, made Umbrella’s dark past relevant to the current crisis’ at hand in the ga

Given that the G-Virus was discovered in 1988 in Lisa Trevor, this means that Umbrella must have known about Salazar’s castle and the Las Plagas parasites in the caves nearby for a long time. The link between the Nemesis parasite and the Las Plagas parasites ties Resident Evil 4 deeply into the timeline of the series’ past, thereby making it all the more relevant and necessary in setting the trajectory for Resident Evil 4 ‘s timeline thereaf

There’s nothing inherently wrong with that, but Zelda has always been a wonderfully diverse series. Not to the extent of Mario which has crossed all manner of genres in its years, but it is diverse all the same. It has shaped the RPG genre numerous times since the ‘80s, inspiring the likes of Dark Souls, Secret of Mana, Shadow of the Colossus, and now, the aforementioned Genshin Impact. You can see how much the RPG genre varies with Zelda’s inspirations alone and that’s telling. After Breath of the Wild 2, it needs to do something different again. Going back to the classics might not scream new. In fact, it sounds like a step back, aye? Well, that’s the thing. The triple-A space seems to be scared of its own history, desperate to move past it and become more cinematic, more graphically domineering. It’s all about tech and visual prowess. But art style is just as import
