Resident Evil 4 Remake features much of the tense horror-action players remember from the game with a “state-of-the-art quality” suitable for 2023. However, the team is focused on preserving the essence of the original game and plans to provide a familiar experience that fans of the series remember.

Further, they want to offer a fresh new feeling with additional story elements. This is a “reimagining” of the original game’s storyline while keeping the essence of the direction with modernized graphics and updated controls.

Resident Evil 4 Remake will launch for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC, and Xbox Series X|S on March 24, 2023. Additionally, a free demo, the Chainsaw Demo, is available, giving prospective players a taste of the game’s early hours.
