by houstonpratt216Resident Evil 4 , while arguably not up to the technical standards of many modern experiences, is far from as obsolete as the franchise’s first handful of entries. The over-the-shoulder camera, third-person aiming, and overall format utilized in the reimagining of Resident Evil 2 was, after all, first established throughout 4’s sensational rebranding of the series back in 2005. 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. With its design emulating Resident Evil 4 so closely, it begs the question of whether a remake would seem unnecessary; almost acting as more of a visual touch up than a full reimagining of the original ti
Considering that the most recent remake in the series is 2020’s Resident Evil 3 , it’d make sense that the following remake should be the next numbered title in the series. There’s no need to confuse casuals with a non-numerical cult classic, especially when they can dive into something easily recognizable with proven commercial and critical succ
For those who missed Star Wars: Dark Forces when it released in 1995, they are missing out.

It can be argued that this hack-and-slash role-playing game is still relevant two decades after its release. The servers are still active because of people returning to play through the game once more. Plenty of demand makes a Diablo II remake pivo
Without a doubt, Resident Evil 4 was an absolute game changer for third-person shooters. The game introduced the “over the shoulder” perspective that has since become a staple of the genre. Not only did the game revolutionize third-person shooters, RE4 has also been a source of inspiration to various video games franchises such as God of War , Gears of War , Grand Theft Auto , Fallout , and more! The game also influenced survival horror titles to become more in tune with action-adventure such as The Last of Us and the Dead Space tril
After playing through the RE2 and RE3 remakes, it could potentially confuse or turn away some Animal Crossing New Horizons fans if Capcom goes with Code: Veronica over RE4 . Of course, older RE fans may say otherwise. But it’s prudent to aim for the broader general market to optimize profit, especially when you can sense that remaking RE4 over Code: Veronica will gain more fans than l
Following Sony’s most recent State of Play event, it’s finally official that Resident Evil 3 will be seeing a modern reimagining in early April next year. The iconic game has been the only thing on the minds of franchise veterans since the rampant success of the Resident Evil 2 remake back in February, and while many forecasted that the game would be a major ways off, it turns out Capcom has its finger on the pulse when delivering the next big Resident Evil experie
There will also be multiple routes that Jill can take to reach her objective, which will give players a chance to strategize which path would be the safest to take, especially when Nemesis can just pop in at any moment. Moreover, the city will remain recognizable to fans but will obviously be richer in detail and will employ a faithful ’90s aesthe
Originally released in 2005 on Nintendo’s GameCube, Resident Evil 4 is definitely showing its age and allows plenty of room for improvement. Given that the Resident Evil 2 and 3 Remake already utilize an over-the-shoulder third person view and engine that would fit in well with the original gameplay elements of Resident Evil 4 without having to completely redesign the entire game, it would appear to be a fairly straight forward remake. Resident Evil 4 already has the reputation of a classic among the Resident Evil series and it would surely be a safe bet for driving sa
Although members from the modding community have attempted to revitalize Half-Life 2 by improving its graphics, there is only so much developers can do with the game. In its current state, Half-Life 2 can only change slightly. A remake from the ground-up is precisely what the game ne
Developed by Rare, the company behind games such as Sea of Thieves and Banjo-Kazooie, GoldenEye 007 released for the Nintendo 64. Now that Microsoft owns Rare, it could be difficult to port a remake to a Nintendo cons
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 game’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
