After Angry Reactions – Capcom Won’t Make Resident Evil 4 Remake as Short as the Third Remake

Yesterday we covered the first extended gameplay review of Resident Evil 4 Remake, which further excited fans of the game and horror game fans alike.

What bothered us the most is in the remake of the third part the number of hours of gameplay that did not exceed an average of just 5 hours, and its lack of many elements compared to the original version, as an entire area of the game was ignored from the original game, such as the clock tower area and some puzzles and what irritated the players and the most annoying was its launch at a price of $ 60..more.

The fourth part of the original is known to contain the most hours of standard story life in the series' history, at a rate of 16 to 18 hours, as the remake of the fourth part will target the same number of hours of original gameplay as possible, and the developers will not leave any other regions behind or maps will be deleted.

The Japanese developer is well aware of the size and extent of the backlash the developer could face with the new remake if it repeats the same mistake it made with the third remake, and also intends to support the game with various packs to extend the life of the game, which is what game producer Hiroyuki Kobayashi spoke about via PC Gamer Magazine, where he explained:

When we started producing the RE4 remake, we looked at what people thought was good about the previous versions of RE2 and RE3, and what could have been done better.

One example is that RE4's playtime is the same as the original.

Of course, the producer did not confirm that the number of hours of gameplay was exactly the same as the original game, but he left room for some additions or to remove some of the small details necessary for the development process of a completely new version such as the reduction of QTs, but we saw through the last presentation and heard from the developer as well that The new version will be faithful to the original version.

Resident Evil 4 Remake will be released on PlayStation 5, 4, Xbox Series, and PC on March 23, 2023.
