Everything you need to know about Resident Evil 4 Remake
Since the return of the Resident Evil series to its glory in 2017, and Capcom starting to release remasters of old games, everyone has been excited about the Resident Evil 4 remake. This is perhaps the most important and most awaited remake in Capcom's history, and they must release it to the gamers community in the best possible way, and fortunately Luckily, it looks like we're in for a fairytale experience judging by all the shows we've seen. Here's everything you need to know about Resident Evil 4 Remake before it's officially released on March 24!
Same story as the original Resident Evil 4, but with new additions
The story of Resident Evil 4 Remake is still the same as that of the main game. The President of the United States of America appoints Agent Leon Kennedy to carry out a secret mission in which he is required to rescue the President's daughter, who has been kidnapped in a Spanish village in Europe. Once Leon arrives at the place, he discovers that the villagers have turned into zombies like those he encountered in the events of Resident Evil 2, and here things turn upside down.
Now Leon's mission has become bigger and deeper, so instead of saving only the chief's daughter, he has to find out what is happening in the village, and what experiments took place in this place that led to the transformation of the inhabitants into what they are now. The game is huge, and the story will require you more than 15 hours to finish it on normal difficulty, and it is considered one of the largest titles in the Resident Evil series.
The changes are not major in the story, as all enemies, characters, events and areas are present as they are in the original game. But Capcom studio wants to make RE4 Remake a better experience in terms of storytelling, so many dialogues have been changed, more cinematic scenes have been added, with a larger group of beloved characters appearing.
Big changes in character dialogues
In the original version, we used to find a lot of characters talking in a relatively humorous manner, such as Leon, Luis Sera, and even all the main enemies, and although humor will still play a big role in the remake version, Capcom has worked to reduce it relatively while changing a group of dialogues to ensure that the experience is presented More realistic and logical rather than being all humorous in the dialogues. Don't worry, Leon still has a bunch of great quotes that will make you burst out laughing throughout the game, but overall it looks like it's going to be a much more story-wise experience compared to the original.
The game world has become more terrifying
Although the original Resident Evil 4 provided a great action experience with many scary monsters, the design of the world itself wasn't intimidating at all, and you feel like a lot of the areas are lit up most of the time. Fortunately, this is completely different with the remake version!
Capcom Studio decided to change the design of many areas and make them darker to ensure that the player is immersed in the experience and makes him feel a sense of dread at every step. And while the remake is mainly action-focused like the original game, the improvements to the lighting and graphics will make it an even more terrifying experience.
Changes to Ashley's playstyle
Fortunately, the character Ashely will not be as annoying in the remake as the original version, and will have a large role during the events of the game. Some of the tasks you will perform as Ashley only, which means complete reliance on stealth and infiltration, because she will not be able to confront the various enemies and monsters in the village and castle.
In addition, Leon will not be able to reach some areas except with the help of Ashley until the doors open for him from the other side, or she throws a ladder for him to climb and reach the desired place. There are a lot of side areas designed in this way to make Ashley a bigger role in the game.
In terms of encounters, she won't be screaming over and over for help if an enemy picks her up, your UI will show that she's in danger and you have to help her. As Leon you can give her some commands to ensure her safety as you fight the enemies in the area.
Ada Wong's character will have a bigger role!
The same applies to the character of Ada Wong, as it was confirmed that her role will be greater in the remake version, and she will appear in many cinematic scenes with more story details. It has not been confirmed whether the character will be playable or not, but in the original version we got its own DLC called Seperate Ways, and we hope that Capcom added it in the remake version, which means that we will play with Leon, Ada Wong and Ashley in the events of the game itself rather than having DLC.
A mixture of the original gameplay and the remake of the second part
The Resident Evil 4 remake doesn't change the gameplay of the original much, it's still a third-person experience with plenty of stunts that Leon can do while killing enemies. But the main thing different here is that you will finally be able to move as you target enemies instead of standing in your place like the original version, in addition to offering a set of new movements and animations that guarantee you a smoother and more enjoyable experience as a new generation game with a stealth and stealth feature!
You can now kill enemies by stealth and stealth!
The original version of Resident Evil 4 has no stealth and stealth, and you must engage in direct confrontations with all the enemies you find on your way, but Capcom decided to add the stealth feature in the remake version!
We didn't see a lot of game footage with the feature of stealth and infiltration, but it seems that the artificial intelligence of the enemies will be wonderfully high in the remake, and therefore you must take care at every step so that you will not be quickly detected by the enemies, and thus ensure that they are killed one by one and reduce their numbers before entering the battle. Direct confrontation with the remaining enemies.
Can you block the enemies' blows?
Yes, the Resident Evil 4 Remake game offers you the ability to block enemy strikes with a knife and Parry them, which opens up the opportunity for you to give them a fatal blow, whether manually or with weapons. This is a great feature that adds more dynamism to the gameplay, but of course you have to make sure that the knives will break over time. But don't worry, you can upgrade your knives through the merchant (which we'll talk about later), or you can buy stronger ones to kill enemies with.
There are no Quick Time Events
One of the things that players did not like the most in the original version is the Quick Time Events, which require you to focus a lot in order to avoid the blows in a cinematic way, and if you do not press the button in time, you die. The QTEs are generally hated in all games, so Capcom decided to abandon them almost completely in the remake, focusing on placing the player in various situations mainly instead of offering a cinematic camera and making the player press buttons only!
Trader returns, craft ammo and resources
The well-liked merchant with his catchphrase "What're ya buyin'" returns in the remake to offer us all the weapons and resources we need on our journey to the village and castle. The merchant also offers us the possibility of exchanging some resources for making ammunition and other resources. In addition, the game offers a great system previously found in Resident Evil Village, which is that during your journey in the game world you will get many artifacts and treasures, and you can sell them to the merchant for money.
Not only that, but the importance of the trader increases in Resident Evil 4 Remake as it presents you with a set of tasks and side activities that you can do in the village in order to obtain additional resources. We will talk about it more clearly later in the article.
Expansion of the main village with new places to explore
Like the original, the Resident Evil 4 franchise presents us with a village, a castle, and an island in the middle of a large lake. Those are the same places that existed in the original game, and no place will be removed from them, as happened with Resident Evil 3 Remake, which in turn angered many players.
Remake RE4 will not only keep all the main places, but each area of them will be expanded to add some houses and explorable side paths, then you will meet more enemies and get more loot to help you upgrade your gear and abilities.
The game has a lot of side missions
One of the most beloved characters in Resident Evil 4 is the Merchant, and that character will not return to us in the remake just to provide the necessary weapons and equipment, but it has been confirmed that he will have a greater role in the events of the game as he will present you with a set of side tasks that you can complete throughout the village .
You must return to the merchant again after completing each task in order to get your reward, and of course the reward will be of a higher value the more difficult the task. Only simple tasks that require you to destroy tombs or kill a powerful dog have been shown, but the full version will certainly have more powerful and difficult tasks than that.
New types of enemies in RE4 Remake
The remake offers us a great variety of enemies, as of course all the enemies and bosses that we saw in the original version are presented, but Capcom wanted to make the experience more enjoyable by providing more than one person with the Chainsaw and they will chase you in various confrontations throughout the game. Add to that an all-new, tough-to-fight enemy called The Bulk. He is a giant person wearing a cow's head and facing him is very difficult as you have to dodge his various blows because one hit from him can kill you completely!
And yes, there are also new weapons in the game!
Although we only saw one new weapon in the teasers, which is the arrow launcher, the presence of a new weapon tells us what Capcom studio has in store for the full experience. The presence of a new weapon such as the arrow launcher means that the Capcom studio is on its way to adding more weapons, which in turn add a lot to the experience and make it different from the original version that was released in 2005.
Mercenaries mode is back in the remake
Although the Mercenaries mode will not be available at the time of the launch of the game itself, Capcom Studios confirmed that they are very keen to release this mode as a free mode for all players after the official release. What does the Mercenaries mode offer you?
In short, the Mercenaries mode is unlocked for all players after completing the main story on any difficulty, and your main goal is to defeat as many enemies as possible and get as many points as possible before the evacuation helicopter comes. You can try this phase with different characters and weapons, and create a great gaming experience for long periods of time.
Full PS5 Dualsense controller support
Of course, PlayStation is the first company to always cooperate with Capcom in all its releases, so of course we will see full support for the PS5 Dualsense controller in Resident Evil 4 Remake, whether with Adaptive Triggers or Haptic Feedback. In general, the best controller experience for RE4 Remake will be the Dualsense controller, especially since you will feel completely immersed in this world.
The presence of the Photo Mode feature at the time of launch
Resident Evil 4 Remake is based on the latest version of the RE Engine, which means that it will provide a stunning graphical experience on any platform you will play on, and Capcom wants us to capture these stunning scenes by adding Photo Mode. This feature has become present in almost all games, and helps players to take various wonderful photos and share them with the online community of players.
New Game Plus is also available!
One of the most requested features in all new games is the New Game Plus feature that allows you to restart the game from the beginning again with a higher difficulty, and at the same time you have all the weapons, items and abilities that you unlocked in your first experience.
RE4 Remake will offer us this feature, which will make exploring the castle and village for the second time more fun and more violent with strong encounters from the beginning instead of waiting to collect all weapons and equipment again.
