Upon completion, you'll be eager to replay it all in the New Game+ mode. The familiar Resi hallmarks are here: monsters, tense combat, inventory management, strategic ammo conservation, and an engrossing story that unfolds in perfect tandem with player progression. Naturally, there are still numerous horror moments for fans to relish. Perhaps the most welcome change is the addition of parries. Certain boss fights have been revamped, the controls have been upgraded, QTEs are no longer present in cutscenes, and everything is faster and more visually striking. The remake eliminates the few outdated elements that marked Resident Evil 4 as 'of its time' and amplifies the game's best features. The company not only met those expectations but surpassed them with a reimagining that's superior to the original. Many people were optimistic that Capcom could replicate the success of the Resident Evil 2 and Resi 3 remakes with one of the most cherished entries in the series: Resident Evil 4.
