As previously stated, remastered games are also quite profitable much like remakes. Resident Evil 4 has been ported and remastered to multiple different consoles, past and current gen. And this isn't because re-releasing games is a hobby for Capcom. One of the more recent RE4 remasters, released for the PS4 and Xbox One in 2016, sold 1.6 million un

There’s nothing inherently wrong with that, but Zelda has always been a wonderfully diverse series. Not to the extent of Mario which has crossed all manner of genres in its years, but it is diverse all the same. It has shaped the RPG genre numerous times since the ‘80s, inspiring the likes of Dark Souls, Secret of Mana, Shadow of the Colossus, and now, the aforementioned Genshin Impact. You can see how much the RPG genre varies with Zelda’s inspirations alone and that’s telling. After Breath of the Wild 2, it needs to do something different again. Going back to the classics might not scream new. In fact, it sounds like a step back, aye? Well, that’s the thing. The triple-A space seems to be scared of its own history, desperate to move past it and become more cinematic, more graphically domineering. It’s all about tech and visual prowess. But art style is just as import

Breath of the Wild followed the evolution of RPGs across the industry - open-world, 3D, and filled with side objectives and little tidbits to do besides the main story. The difference was that it revolutionized open-world games, as evidenced by the titles it has since inspired like Genshin Impact, Immortals Fenyx Rising, and Horizon Forbidden West, but Nintendo’s been there and done that… twice now. Whatever comes after Breath of the Wild 2 will determine Zelda’s future trajectory in a rather significant way. For current generations, BOTW is what put the series on the map. I had friends that played the DS and Game Boy ones at school but it was never a part of my childhood. What really drew my eye to the series was BOTW. Granted, I’m 21 so in my age group, I’m no doubt an anomaly. I imagine that for those much younger, however, Zelda is known as that open-world jaunt on the Swi

Not long after the release of Resident Evil 3 Remake , speculation turned into rumors that Resident Evil 4 Remake was already in the works and would be released after Resident Evil 8 . The first rumors claimed that the remake had been in development since 2018 and that Capcom was planning to release the game in 2022. M-Two, who previously helped with Resident Evil 3 , is leading the development ccording to these rumors and will be supported by Capcom's internal Resident Evil 2 Remake and Devil May Cry V teams, giving the game a larger development team than both of the previous remak

The larger development team makes sense given the length of the game compared to RE 2 and RE3 , and supports additional leaks that Resident Evil 4 would have an "expanded story." According to Twitter user AestheticGamer1, another known source for leaks with a good reputation in the industry, RE4 Remake will focus on expanding the story of the original game and players can expect to see more and larger changes than anything done in RE2 or RE3 . One example given related to the character Dr Salvador, who is said to be getting more screentime and an expanded backstory in the RE4 rema

A remake of RE4 is rumored for a 2022 release. But that doesn't mean Capcom won't bring us back to the 2000 Dreamcast classic somewhere down the line. With next-gen hardware on the horizon, it's likely that any possible Code Veronica remake will find a home on the PS5 and Xbox Series X. Here are six reasons why Capcom should bring Code Veronica into the next generation and four reasons they should

Obi-Wan Kenobi, like Ahsoka Tano, is going to be the subject of a streaming series on Disney+. The series is likely to connect to the star wars Games innovation Wars movies in a lot of ways and may show some of the legendary Jedi Master's life in the immediate aftermath of Order 66. Obi-Wan lived in seclusion on Tattooine for nearly twenty years, watching over Luke Skywalker, who he would eventually train and guide into becoming the first new Jedi in a generation. His sacrifice and efforts helped end the Sith and the Emp

Next to major first-party titles like Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Horizon: Forbidden West , one of the biggest new game announcements from the PlayStation 5 gameplay event was the reveal of Resident Evil 8: Village . Just like Resident Evil 3 Remake before it, Resident Evil 8 rumors have been floating around online for the majority of the year, revealing a ton of new aspects about the game from its medieval castle setting to the introduction of werewolves, and a redesigned Chris Redfi

For example, the mysterious Weapons Merchant in Resident Evil 4 , who happens to pop up at various intervals in Resident Evil 4 to help the player buy, sell and upgrade equipment, just seems out of place in Resident Evil's more realistic oracle. Whether the merchant and currency system will be in a Resident Evil 4 Remake will be an interesting beacon point to keep an eye on over the direction of Resident Evil 4 Rema
