Remember, a month and a half ago, Game Informer magazine went to Osaka, to Capcom’s premises, to discover exclusively a new portion of the game that they had been able to play. It was Chapter 5 where Leon S. Kennedy finds himself accompanied by Ashley, the President’s daughter. Most of the scene took place outdoors in the pouring rain and the result shocked many players, who strongly criticized the rendering. It must be said that not only the rain was damn badly done, but in addition, it reduced the visibility and readability of the action, reminiscent of the rain of the remastered version of GTA The Trilogy, also strongly criticized when it was released. A dissatisfaction that has also been heard by the development team, since the game’s producer, Hirabayashi Yoshiaki, has confirmed that the rendering of the rain is being changed and that the new version will be deployed with the day one patch. . It is indeed to our colleagues from Press Start that the man has made adjustments to avoid losing a few points of credibility when the game is released. On the other hand, it will be too late for the tests already underway in the video game editorial offices.
Resident Evil 4 Remake is expected to release on March 24, 2023 on PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PS4. No Xbox One version, but that’s not a scoop.
