Throughout Resident Evil's long history, the survival-horror franchise not only introduced players to a list of heroes and villains that have since become icons in the video game industry, but also to a wide variety of monsters that haunted the nightmares of players. Now, Resident Evil 3 remake is merely days away from release and Capcom has already revealed the monsters that are confirmed to appear in the upcoming g
The game is also bursting with depth in every aspect of its design as a video game. From the core shooting mechanic to challenging dungeons and puzzles, incremental but satisfying weapon progression, heavily varied environment design, a well-balanced rising difficulty, and even some more miniscule details bring this game to life greater than many at the time. And it didn't have to be a 40-60 hours long experience to feel like players got their money's worth. Very few games felt like such a complete package as Resident Evil 4 did; Resident Evil 4 pioneered a lot for modern video games , not just the series its
The Giant Moth was created by Umbrella as a Bio Organic Weapon using the T-Virus , but was ultimately considered a failure because its weight and wingspan could not allow them to fly beyond a low-altitude hover above the gro
Also shown in the unlocked concept art (above left) is another enemy that never made it to the final cut of the game, known as the Licker Zombie. It looks like a humanoid version of the four-legged Licker, or a zombie with a Licker's head, and similarly clawed hands. Given that Lickers are mutant humans infected with a particular strain of the T-Virus which can only be obtained from an already-mutated Zombie (known as the V-ACT process), it is possible that the Licker Zombie would have been a Licker that did not fully mutate yet and was only in its early sta
Additionally, there was a major change to Resident Evil 2's Plant 43 villain in the Remake, which is worth noting here. In reviewing all Flux Construct Locations the enemies that were removed or did not make it to the final cut of this game, perhaps there is a chance that some appear in the upcoming Resident Evil 3 Rem
The photo of the Condemned shows a humanoid of some sort wearing what looks to be a some sort of metal neck brace. In Resident Evil lore, given that the Orphanage was testing a T-Virus strain on children that would increase the odds of a human host accepting extreme mutations into Tyrants, it is possible the Condemned may have been one of these experiments that was only semi-successful; the host may have failed to transform into a Tyrant, but also did not die in the process either, which is often the case when trying to find a viable human host to become a Tyr
Finally, the original Plant 43 was not included in the Resident Evil 2 Remake , at least not in its original form. In the original game, Plant 43 was a humanoid-shaped plant-like creature about the size of a human, which attacks the player in the corridors of Umbrella's underground lab beneath Raccoon C
Bringing back such a game ahead of its time means Resident Evil 4 's remake has a lot to live up to. That's precisely why Capcom has to perform a very delicate balancing act if Capcom intends to truly remake Resident Evil 4 in the flavor of its most recent remakes. A lot of what the original game introduced to the world of games has now become commonplace for third-person shooters, survival horror games, and other genres in general. That being said, there are plenty of quality-of-life updates Resident Evil 4 deserves that a remake could achieve thanks to innovations made in games from the past dec
The first three monsters on this list are existing creatures from other Resident Evil games, and headlining it are Crimson Head Zombies which were introduced in 2002's remake of Resident Evil . Although these creatures started as plain old zombies, Crimson Heads are mutations of zombies and are faster, deadlier, and imposes a greater threat to players. In the Resident Evil remake , Crimson Heads are made when players take down regular zombies but are unable to decapitate their heads or burn their bodies. As a result, these zombies would resurrect once again but with sharp claws and the ability to run after the player. In terms of gameplay, the Crimson Heads made resource management even more difficult in Resident Evil given that taking down zombies doesn't just cost players bullets, but also gasoline, which is required to burn the corpses of zombies. It is currently unclear why Crimson Heads did not make further appearances after the Resident Evil remake. While it would be cool to see them again in Resident Evil 3 , their appearance in the game is unlik
As cool as Nemesis is, it wouldn't quite be a Resident Evil game without zombies, and Resident Evil 3 Remake is full of them. Taking place in Raccoon City after the outbreak , it is no wonder that Jill and the player run into their fair share of zombies during the game. Visually, there's not much to talk about here; a rose by any other name is still... a zombie. That said, the image of a zombie has been modernized compared to the original. The image below shows zombies as they were for the original game, with full heads of hair and bloody, pale faces. Compared to the much more rotted corpses seen above, the difference is quite profo
