REmake 3 Preview

 

The rumors were true!

Also very predictable after Capcom's return to form with success after success of released games, during the latest State of Play today, Sony's equivalent towards the Nintendo Direct presentations, Resident Evil Resistance was first featured among the thrills.

It's "campaign" mode then moved into REmake 3's official announcement, a clever move, and it's also smart to double pack them together instead of standalone releases in order to accumulate critical and commercial success further.

As expected, all of the characters featured in the original Resident Evil 3 also have gotten new facial features, which include Jill Valentine, Carlos Oliveira, Brad Vickers, Nikolai Zinoviev and the infamous main villain; Nemesis.

He is hardly seen, as this could mean two things; this acts as a teaser, or perhaps his design is not final yet. As it will release in April 2020, there should be enough time to tweak development if needed after the initial reactions.

I wonder if the crafting mechanic, the branching paths and the different endings will return from the original? Aside from those, will the old locations return as well, which consists aside from the streets of Raccoon City, parts of the police department, the hospital, the park and the factory?

Although almost no gameplay is shown, considering the quality left behind by RE7 and REmake 2 before this, I expect no disappointment from this one, as long as Nemesis will pack a punch, he should definitely be more explosive than Mr.X.

As if early 2020 isn't filled with huge AAA games already!
