If the rumors are true, we could be seeing an RE8 game —and follow-up to RE7 —in 2021. This is earlier than what was initially predicted or discussed. Considering that the new consoles are set to hit next year as well, if RE4 was to come out for those systems as well, then it could take attention away from Capcom's newest Resident Evil stor
Resident Evil 2's remake stayed mostly true to the original game in terms of story, lore and details, but there are a few changes to the enemies which fans may not be aware of. In addition to some new enemy concepts that were scrapped from the final release of Resident Evil 2 Remake, there are also some old enemy types from the original game which were not included in the origi
Of course, it would be easier for Capcom to just use the same formula that made Resident Evil 2 remake successful for Resident Evil 3 . However, the studio is aware of the fact that sequels should evolve from its predecessor, and this is exactly why Capcom introduced these changes to the remake . Towards the end of Resident Evil 2 remake , players will notice that the pace of the game is more intense and action-heavy, and Resident Evil 3 remake picks up exactly from that point. Looking at both games as a whole, Resident Evil 3 perfectly compliments Resident Evil 2 , which is what a good sequel should
However, it looks like this game franchise could be a victim of attrition and "falling interest." It's the same reason why the movie sequel always seems not to do as well. If the numbers are low for RE3 , the chances are high that the same will happen to an RE4 rem
Finally, the original Plant 43 was not included in the Resident Evil 2 Remake , at least not in its original form. In the original game, Plant 43 was a humanoid-shaped plant-like creature about the size of a human, which attacks the player in the corridors of Umbrella's underground lab beneath Raccoon C
In summary, Resident Evil 2 added some new enemies, such as the Ivy Zombies, made some drastic changes, such is the case of Plant 43, while some of the enemies in the original game were absent, including spiders, moths and crows. While there was some ambitions to include some drastically new enemies, as shown in the concept art, they never made it to the final cut. In the end, the remake of Resident Evil 2's zombies sticks very close to the familiar grounds of the original in terms of its choices of enemies and their overall design, functions, and l
Yet again, however, it's not a game that is likely to set the pulse of any players racing, and gamers could hardly be blamed for suspecting that the title could fall flat upon release. If Capcom is to keep its position in the industry, then a level of innovation needs to be maintained. Perhaps the only sure-fire way to do this is to break this emphasis on remakes and spin-offs, particularly if brand new titles continue to fail to live up to expectati
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, Innovative Gameplay 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
There are also a few enemies that were in the original Resident Evi l, but were not included in the Remake, such as the Giant Moth. In the original Resident Evil 2 game, the Giant Moth was encountered in the B5F computer room in Umbrella's underground Raccoon City facil
Additionally, there was a major change to Resident Evil 2's Plant 43 villain in the Remake, which is worth noting here. In reviewing all the enemies that were removed or did not make it to the final cut of this game, perhaps there is a chance that some appear in the upcoming Resident Evil 3 Rem
Dino Crisis is already rumored for for a remake and is another classic survival horror game made by Capcom, often described as being " Resident Evil with dinosaurs." First released in 1999 on the original PlayStation, Dino Crisis starred multiple characters trying to take back control from a deadly outbreak of dinosaurs on an island where research was being conducted into their revival from extinct
Another possibility is that it was a new type of Licker mutated from a zombie itself, rather than a human host. In other words, if a regular Licker is conceived from a live human host, the Licker Zombie may have been the result of converting, or applying the V-ACT process, on a zom
This team contributed to the development of RE3 and is made up of developers that have worked for Capcom in the past. Meanwhile, Shinji Mikami, the director of the original game, has been reported to give his blessing on this title. If Mikami is comfortable with who is at the helm, then it must mean they have some great id
