The remake of Resident Evil 4 has just released and we got a chance to give it a whirl.

As a person who has played the original game, which released in 2005, I have been waiting for this remake with quite a lot of anticipation. Right off the bat I will say this, It is outstanding.

The original game is arguably the best in the entire 25+ game franchise. With that comes a bit of scepticism to see if a remake would do the original justice. And it does! The graphics, the story, the combat, it is all a perfectly crafted enhancement of the original.

They add features, like stealth, when they need to, but keep most of the original game intact. This is a perfect example of what a remake should be. Instead of just keeping the frame of the original game and adding way to much, resident evil keeps the whole body. All it does is add clothes and accessories to this metaphorical person.

Some of those additions and changes include, but are not limited to; Stealth, Map Changes, Being able to move and shoot at the same time, new puzzles, side quests, new and improved crafting, and so much more.

The original creators of Resident Evil 4, all those years ago, were so ahead of their time that they had to wait almost 20 years for the technology to catch up. It finally has and the wait has paid off.

If you are a gamer, or even if you aren’t, I highly recommend giving this game a shot. It’s wild, insanely entertaining, and will have you locked in right at the very beginning. It’s a great remake, a must play, and I could not recommend it more. Here’s the trailer so you can get a good look at the insanity that is Resident Evil 4.
