With high-challenge Souls-like games gaining a foothold and proving to be popular in recent years, rebooting the Lost Planet franchise in such a landscape may prove to be a potential success, and if done right, the mech-theme and frozen alien-planet setting would certainly make it among the most unique in this action-adventure sub-ge
But Capcom could do well in considering any of these other titles, or plenty of others not listed. The original Street Fighter released in the 1980's is all but forgotten, the much acclaimed Okami , Power Stone , Ghosts 'n Goblins , other zombie games such as Dead Rising and others also could arguably be worthy additions for a handful of remakes by Capcom. With Resident Evil 3 Remake's release just around the corner, hopefully it will not be long before Capcom announces its next planned rem
Apart from the many new changes that will be introduced in Resident Evil 3 remake's Raccoon City, it appears that Capcom is also committed to making the town feel familiar to fans who have played the original game. Fabiano revealed that there will be tons of easter eggs lying around the city, and some eagle-eyed fans have already identified a few based on recent trailers and gameplay footage of the upcoming g
Rumors are flying that Capcom is planning to update this title with a remake. The popularity and reception of Resident Evil 2 and 3 , as well as Resident Evil 7 , has brought this on. Should they go ahead with it, or is this one not even worth touching? Check out our reasons for why this move makes sense, and also why Resident Evil 4 should be left al
Taking pros and cons for whether a Resident Evil 4 remake is necessary to one side, the game would also sell incredibly well for Capcom, which is surely a more corporate reason for the title to get a modern facelift. The fourth game remains a staple of its lineup (hence its constant re-releases on later platforms), meaning that it's no doubt a big moneymaker for the company and one that would succeed if eventually redesigned for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series
Resident Evil 4 , while arguably not up to the technical standards of many modern experiences, is far from as obsolete as the franchise's first handful of entries. The over-the-shoulder camera, third-person aiming, and overall format utilized in the reimagining of Resident Evil 2 was, after all, first established throughout 4's sensational rebranding of the series back in 2005. In fact, one of the remake's most critically acclaimed features was its faithful resurrection of the systems and mechanics first established in the fourth game, with many citing Resident Evil 2's remake as a return to form for the franchise's classic formula. With its design emulating Resident Evil 4 so closely, it begs the question of whether a remake would seem unnecessary; almost acting as more of a visual touch up than a full reimagining of the original ti
It's also worth taking into account that Resident Evil 4 isn't exactly hard to get hold of in 2019, with ports of the sequel making their way to PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Gamecube, Wii, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, the Nintendo Switch , PC, and even mobile. If fans want to revisit Leon's high-octane adventure game patch notes to rescue the president's daughter from the clutches of the undead, they don't even need to dust off their long-forgotten PlayStation 2's to jump right back
As Resident Evil 3 is just weeks away from release, a few leaks, photographic footage, and information from official sources have confirmed the inclusion of such enemies making their unpleasant and gruesome presence known. And some inclusions, such as zombies, are a gi
Perhaps the safest approach for the time being may be sticking with the tried and tested by making more Resident Evil remakes, and both Code Veronica and Resident Evil 4 would be solid choices. Resident Evil 4 is one of the most renowned Resident Evil games and part of the main series. It would likely be the obvious choice for a remake among consideration of all the Resident Evil ga
Yet, it's worth remembering that Resident Evil 4 is undeniably one of the series' most pivotal entries. The action-centric format that eventually went onto define the later games in the series was done to perfection in 4 , with the game completely reinventing what it meant to play a Resident Evil title . It goes without saying that while a remake might not be as utterly transformative as games like Resident Evil 2 and the upcoming remake of the third game, there's still a lot of merit in updating Resident Evil 4's combat and clunky controls to show just how incredible the game's core gameplay and set of mechanics were back in the day. Fixing the aiming so players can move while shooting and adding some of the incredible nuances that made Resident Evil 2 such an immersive next step for the series would go a long way if added to the fourth game, especially if done so alongside a major visual overha
