Rumor: Resident Evil 4 Remake Partially Rebooted As M-Two Is Too Close To The Original After Receiving Resident Evil 3

Anonymous sources claimed that the Resident Evil 4 the remake was partially restarted, after developer M-Two stuck too close to the original due to comments on Resident Evil 3 (2020).

As previously stated, VGC which “Several sources of development” told them a remake of Resident Evil 4 is in production and will be launched in 2022. “Dusk Golem”, a leaker who previously provided information on Resident Evil 8 rumors that appear to be true also contained information about the Resident Evil 4 remaster.

In summary, these rumors claimed that the game would be managed by M-Two, which was involved in the development of Resident Evil 3 (2020). Many former employees of Capcom and PlatinumGames are also reportedly involved, and the game will launch in 2022 or beyond.

Capcom 2020 leaks called for a VR version of Resident Evil 4 is also in the works, exclusively for Oculus devices. These leaks had things come true, such as Resident Evil Village have DLC dubbed “Ethan’s Trauma” (which turned out to be a pre-order bonus), and what has been called a Battle Royale multiplayer game could be Re: Verse Resident Evil.

Now VGC has reported new information from “Several sources“and”people with knowledge»About M-Two. They claim that M-Two’s role was “significantly reduced,” and that the main resident Evil developers (Capcom Division 1, also those behind The devil can cry) are now taking the game in a new direction.

This came after a major project review in late 2020, apparently due to M-Two’s desire to (in VGC’s words) “Stick to the original Resident Evil 4 model.” This was in part motivated by comments from Resident Evil 3 (2020).

While critics praised him, fans had a poorer reaction [1, 2, 3]. Reviews included how the game cut several areas found in the original, and overall, being a step down from the remake of Resident Evil 2 (2019). Our review also condemned the lack of replay value, being fairly short, and the restrictive level design. He praised the graphics and the story, however.

Capcom’s production team would like to Resident Evil 4 remake to take inspiration from the original, but (in VGC’s own words) “With its own unique take on features, story elements, and environments that aren’t necessarily limited to the original blueprint, similar to Resident Evil 2’s use of Mr. X.”

Sources told VGC that the remake will be partially rebooted, with a release date pushed back to 2023. Similar revisions are believed to have occurred with both. Resident Evil 2 (2019) and Resident Evil 3 (2020).

Resident Evil 4 have always received high praise with almost all its ports [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]. As such, it is understandable why “yet another port” can turn sour for gamers and even investors; even with the game accurately rebuilt from scratch, but with new graphics.

The popularity of the game but no news on the remake during the resident Evil showcase can also confirm that the game has been delayed for the announcement.
