Capcom announce Resident Evil 4 remake, due March 2023

With a “reimagined storyline”

Capcom have confirmed thatResident Evil 4is getting a remake. It’s due out in March of next year.

The first look shows Leon headed off into the dark and dingy woods of Europe to rescue the president’s daughter. But he has to contend with spooky dead deer and spooky crumbling architecture and spooky guys with hatchets. You know.Resident Evilstuff. (I have not played Resident Evil.)

Forgive the Playstation trailer; the remake is confirmed for PC as well.

That means that in order to keep the game both “fresh” and “familiar,” they will be “reimagining the storyline of the game while keeping the essence of its direction.” There’ll also be changes to the graphics and control systems for the “modern standard.”
