Ahead of the release of Resident Evil 4 Remake later this month, Capcom appears to have released a puzzle game on the game's pre-release website. It's actually an ARG, or as it's called, an "alternate reality game." Players can visit the website here to jump into a short experience that tells a story about the kidnapping of Ashely Graham, which are puzzles that mainly help with the plot of Resident Evil 4.

The game description follows:

At Secure Agent Gate, players will be able to see several different messages with highly classified clues.

At the time of this writing, the ARG website appears to be in its infancy. However, more answers will likely be uncovered as more mysteries about Resident Evil 4 Remake are solved.

To put it into context, an Alternate Reality Game or ARG is a game where no stage is to be missed and all puzzles must be solved in order to move on to the next stage. The gameplay revolves around finding clues by solving mysterious puzzles that are scattered throughout the game, and when you find an answer, it’s best to write it down immediately. Alternate reality games have a distinct flavor from the indie horror scene, but big companies rarely use this to market big titles.

Resident Evil 4 is set to release on March 24 for PS5, PS4, and Xbox Series X/S. We recently learned that Xbox platforms have started pre-loading the game as the game requires around 67 GB of storage space.
