Both RE titles are definitive classics in their own right, but which one will be chosen as the next Resident Evil remake. Should it be RE4 that redefined the series entirely? Or should the next RE remake stick with strictly survival horror with Code: Veroni 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 An update one should certainly expect from a Resident Evil 4 remake is the refinement of the mobility and aiming mechanics. Resident Evil stuck with the tank-controls aiming technique for the longest time, but eventually evolved to allow for more freedom of movement without sacrificing the series' evocative feeling of vulnerability. Resident Evil 2 Remake is a prime example of this , eschewing the stationary aiming design and allowing players to reposition ever so slowly. But on the flipside of this, the remake should be careful not to slip too far from the original game's constraints. Resident Evil 4 's weapon aiming had realistic weapon shake where every slight adjustment required the upmost precision. A Resident Evil 4 remake shouldn't lose that aspect of its tactical gameplay, but should at least allow for more mobility in com Given the recent popularity in Souls-like action-adventure games based in mythological or historical East Asian settings, such as Nioh, Sekiro and the upcoming Ghost of Tsushima , a remake of Onimusha could be a smart move by Capcom. It may already be testing the waters, given that Capcom filed for new Onimusha trademarks in 2018, and a remastered version, Onimusha: Warlords Remastered , was released last y There are also some photos that released in the same stockpile as the possible Hunter Y photos, which show possible inclusions of the Drain Demos and Brain Suckers. Again, the footage is not clear enough to confirm with full certainty, but the Resident Evil 3 leaked photos do present some persuasiveness. They could also be new entirely creatures too, and one of them could be a different aesthetic design of the giant spiders inst Though Breath of Fire has mainly been exclusive to the Japanese gaming market in recent times, the original Breath of Fire was released on Super Nintendo in North America in 1994, though it is considered a sleeper hit by many JRPG enthusiasts, especially in comparison to other SNES classics such as Earthbound and Dragon Que Resident Evil 4 , though featuring plenty of familiar cramped spaces that the franchise was known for, was the first game to truly blow the world out into a more vast, open world Exploration-air world. The game still remained true to the core of Resident Evil , but Resident Evil 4 was revolutionary not only for the franchise but for games in general. Despite being confined to the series' trademark tank controls, the game was incredibly innovative in perfecting the third-person shooter genre. The over-the-shoulder camera design in Resident Evil 4 greatly succeeded where many other precursor games had experimented and failed in previously. Some of the best third-person shooters released since 2005 have Resident Evil 4 to thank for its incredible aiming technol While not part of the main series, technically, Resident Evil: Code Veronica might as well be considered part of the overall inclusion, given its deep story and fairly strong integration into the main chronology of the series' lore and plot. Code Veronica presented one of the most unique and complex storylines in the Resident Evil series, which gave a ton of insight into another one of Umbrella Corporation's founders, Edward Ashford, and his family lineage. Code Veronica took players on a grand adventure that spanned Umbrella's Rockfort Prison island, all the way to their secret Antarctic facil Another option is to remake Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening , given that it is considered by man fans to be one of the best games in the series and a classic. Additionally, Devil May Cry 3 was ported to Switch with new features . As a prequel to the first game, it provides a much needed backstory and would be good way to introduce new fans to the world of Devils May Cry , especially those fans who only recently jumped into the series with Devil May Cr If the aforementioned monsters are included in the game, their modern rebirth should certainly be expected to deliver in fright and gruesomeness given the graphical high-note of Capcom's Resident Evil remakes. Perhaps, at this point in time, it is best to wait just a few more weeks and enjoy the element of surprise in regards to what enemies may or may not present themselves, as Resident Evil 3 Remake unleashes itself digitally and on store shelves on Apri
