Resident Evil 4 (Xbox Series) Review - More horror, less action-hero movie, still awesome
11Note: Capcom's pre-release guidelines are insane so don't expect to see too much new video content in this review. We'll be doing some more coverage after March 24th.
Review guides typically warn against a few obvious spoilers, push you to highlight features the developers consider most significant, and promise many technical issues will be dealt with in a day-one patch. In the case of Resident Evil 4 (2023), pre-launch content is restricted to capturing video or images of already marketed content and describing the game in the broadest sense. The good news is these oppressive guidelines have nothing to do with the quality of Resident Evil 4 (2023).
I think Capcom is assuming – and they’re probably right – that most people interested in this remake have never played the original but enjoyed the recent remakes of Resident Evil 2 and 3. If that applies to you, going in blind is the right approach and you’ll get an entertaining ride with familiar foundations. If, like me, you’ve played and replayed the original countless times, it still offers a “familiar but fresh” experience but changes to the gameplay and tone might prove a little more divisive.
