Resident Evil 4 Remake Trailer Teases Krauser Fight, Reveals Upcoming Demo
Details about the remake have been trickling out and showing more of how Capcom has adapted this seminal installment in the horror franchise.

Capcom had previously mentioned this change in an interview with Game Informer, saying that the Krauser fight had “even more action this time.” That same interview also noted that there will be “almost” no quick-time events in the game.

The company also stated earlier this week that its VR mode for PS VR2 will also be coming in free post-launch DLC and development for it has just started.
