From Parrying to Sidequests: The Resident Evil 4 Remake Has Several ‘New Exciting’ Features for Fans to Look Forward To!

The world is waiting for Resident Evil 4 Remake to drop soon. It is the remake of the game that revolutionized the survival horror genre. This game would be launching in March 2023 and Capcom has already started showing off a number of exciting things.

To showcase everything about Resident Evil 4 Remake, Capcom has partnered with Game Informer magazine. And recently Game Informer released a gameplay video revealing a bunch of new gameplay mechanics. So here we list the most exciting new things developers have added to Resident Evil 4 Remake!

Resident Evil 4 now has Side quests

We all remember visiting and re-visiting some of the game’s locations again and again. The developers might have wondered if they can add some more elements to these areas. And that probably resulted in a bunch of side quests.

Players can now find a blue flyer in several areas; these flyers would instruct players to do one thing or another. Completing these quests would result in them earning a bunch of treasures.

Leon now parry’s attacks

Leon Kennedy is a very agile soldier; the ex-cop knows how to handle his weapons and there’s no shortage of weapons in Resident Evil 4. As long-time fans might remember, earlier Leon was able to shoot weapons thrown at him in the air.

And now if players predict an incoming attack at the right time, they can instantly parry that attack and reverse the damage.

Extra knives to make things easy

Knives in Resident Evil 4 made a lot of things easy. They serve a similar purpose in the remake, and this time around, Leon can hold more than one of them.

The animations for knife takedowns have also been enhanced. You can still kill staggered enemies using those knives, only these kills look way better now.

Stealth mode

Remember those overcrowded areas where a bunch of enemies surrounded you and finished you off within seconds? Some of those areas can be made easy by crouching and clearing a handful of those enemies with stealth.

Though these kills are only possible if you have knives in your inventory.

Storage case and weapon charms

Capcom has added a very special new mechanic to this remake, players can now change the color of their storage case. Each color would give them a different gameplay bonus. The same goes for weapon charms, different charms give players different sorts of gameplay boosts.
