The wait is almost over for one of the most sought-after game remakes to be released. The Capcom-developed and published Resident Evil 4 Remake is set to take centre stage in the gaming world with its launch on platforms namely PlayStation4, PlayStation 5, Windows and Xbox Series X/S two days from now. The release of Resident Evil 4 Remake ends an 18-year long wait for the game to be played on modern-day gaming sites for die-hard fans, after the video game of the same name was first released back in January 2005.
What’s Old and What’s New?
Much to the delight of gaming spectators and practitioners, the relaunched version will render closely to that of the 2005 model, by reshaping the epic survival horror game’s mechanics, settings, characters, etc. accordingly with current technology. Apart from keeping the originals intact, the Resident Evil 4 Remake will be complemented with new cameras, controls, approaches when it comes to going up against certain match-ups as well as bosses. This combination of legendary features and modern flavours will surely entice players’ experience and elevate the popularity of the game to a great height.
As you may have already known, the Resident Evil 4 takes place six years after events in Resident Evil 2 and talks about United States Strategic Command Special Agent Leon S. Kennedy’s journey to save the daughter of the President of the United States, Ashley Graham. Although we are still a few days away from the actual release of the remake, those who cannot wait for the launch may go ahead to play the demo version of the game, which is available on PlayStation4, PlayStation 5, Windows and Xbox Series X/S.
The demo version, called the Chainsaw Demo, does not have a time limit, which means players can play as many times as they want and as they like. The setting of this Chainsaw Demo brings players to the initial stage of the Resident Evil 4 Remake video game, that is, Leon’s exploration of the Spanish village that is controlled by the violent cult of Los Illuminados.
Ashley Is Harder to Protect
Ah yes, Ashley will be harder to guard in the remake than the original Resident Evil 4 released in 2005, largely due to her altered mechanism. For instance, in the initial version of the Resident Evil 4 video game, Leon is allowed to make Ashley wait or follow, but the same cannot be expected in the remake version. Instead, the female protagonist will stick to Leon regardless of his command, which means the former will be more vulnerable to perils than before.
Furthermore, Ashley does not have a health bar in the remake version. If she suffers an attack during the gameplay of the remake version, chances are she will lay unconscious on the ground. Another damage or hit at this point will take her life away instantly. Needless to say, Ashley’s new appearance and her susceptibility to damage will raise the difficulty of the game in the Resident Evil 4 Remake, which might well be appealing for players who love to challenge themselves in the virtual world.
Resident Evil 4 Remake VR
Knowing Resident Evil is arguably one of the scariest horror video games ever, having the game in VR mode brings a whole new level of playability and excitement for players. Despite Capcom not adapting its entire Resident Evil 4 Remake into the VR platform, the VR version of this game comes with exclusive PSVR 2 contents for a unique personal perspective experience. Hence, here is a gentle reminder before you commit to Resident Evil 4 Remake VR: Make sure you have the stomach and guts to survive the horror level within!
