Capcom has branded the newly launched remake as an improved and more immersive version of the celebrated horror flick. The claims during the promotion were all about how the remake enhances the experience of its source inspiration. The developers make clever use of the environment by altering the context and frequently having players fight through attackers moving in the opposite direction of Leon. This creates fresh ambush sites, enemy surprises, and new learning opportunities that weren’t previously available.

While the core narrative remains the same, there are some surprises that await players as claimed by the makers. These include even the slightest changes in the behavioral arcs of various characters in the game that somehow influence the narrative later on.

Considering the success of the original, they were scared of backlash in case the remake didn’t work well.

However, the early signs of the remake launch seem promising and bankable. The remake has been received exceptionally well by the hardcore lovers of the franchise.
