The Resident Evil game franchise is one of the most iconic horror video game series of all time. Developed by Capcom, the series began in the year 1996 with the release of the first game on the PlayStation console. Since then, the franchise has had multiple sequels and spin-offs, as well as adaptations to other forms of media such as films, comics, and novels. The series is known for its intense survival gameplay, where players must navigate through dangerous environments filled with zombies, monsters, and other supernatural threats while solving puzzles and collecting resources to survive. With its gripping storytelling, memorable characters, and thrilling gameplay, the Resident Evil franchise has become a staple in the video game industry and a beloved favourite. Fans of the game will be delighted to know that a demo for Resident Evil 4 Remake is available on Xbox, PlayStation and Steam for everyone to try.
The highly anticipated Resident Evil 4 remake is set to launch on March 24th, and Capcom has recently dropped a Chainsaw Demo, available for free on PlayStation 4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S and Steam. This demo takes players through the early stages of the game, as they join Leon, the protagonist, in his mission to investigate the spreading infection in a small Spanish village. Unlike other game demos, there’s no rush to complete it, so players are encouraged to explore every nook and cranny at their own pace.
Capcom has been known for its exceptional remakes of the Resident Evil series. Their previous remakes of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3, released in 2019 and 2020 respectively, were praised for their stunning graphics and innovative gameplay mechanics. Resident Evil 4, originally released in 2005 on GameCube, marked a pivotal point in the series by moving towards an action-oriented gameplay style instead of the traditional puzzle-solving and atmosphere focus. The game introduced a unique over-the-shoulder perspective that became the standard for action-horror games of that era, and its influence can still be seen in modern games, including the RE2 and RE3 remakes.
Fans of the series can expect the Resident Evil 4 remake to be released on March 24th for PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, promising to deliver the same excitement and terror that made the original game a classic.
