gameplay footage from Chapter 5 of the Resident Evil 4 remake

A significant portion of one of Resident Evil 4’s most infamous sections can be seen in some recent footage from the upcoming remake.

Those who are chomping at the bit to play the upcoming Resident Evil 4 remake can at least watch some brand-new Chapter 5 gameplay footage that has been making the rounds lately. Even after the Dead Space remake’s commercial success, the industry is far from done bringing back old-school horror games. Fans of video games that had an impact on horror the first time around have a lot to look forward to with the release of RE4 and Bloober’s interpretation of the iconic Silent Hill 2.

The fourth installment of Capcom’s popular survival series, Resident Evil, is widely regarded as one of the best Resident Evil games. Given the excellent reviews, it’s not surprising that so many people are eagerly anticipating the remake. Hopefully, there won’t be much longer to wait, but in the meantime, some new video has surfaced that will undoubtedly whet fans’ appetites.

The video, which was provided by Game Informer, showcases about 12 minutes of the Resident Evil 4 remake. In particular, it provides a preview of Chapter 5, which describes the scene where Leon Kennedy discovers Ashley after a number of hours. This section includes encounters with the villagers at night as well as the renowned shootout with Carlos. This new footage exhibits the much darker and moodier tone when compared to the original 2005 release, just like previous teasers and images. Anyone who has been eagerly anticipating this remake will probably enjoy what has been demonstrated in this video.

The classic sequence shown in the Game Informer clip is just one of many that fans are looking forward to in the Resident Evil 4 remake. While the influential RE game’s modern reimagining will give older fans a chance to relive the experience in a more contemporary release, it will also allow newcomers to discover what everyone loved about the original release.

It’s not just a new version of an old game, though. Resident Evil 4’s omitted enemies will reportedly be added by Capcom, along with some unexpected plot twists and side missions. In conclusion, it appears that the developer is aware of what the target audience wants, which goes beyond a current-gen remake of a classic game, even one as praised as RE4. There will undoubtedly be enough familiarity in the remake, but there will also be enough surprises to keep it feeling novel and fresh.

Resident Evil 4 releases on March 24 for PC, PS4, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
