In a new report by Fanbyte, more details on the rumored Resident Evil 4 Remake have surfaced. According to the site's sources, Capcom's approach to the unannounced project will deviate from the original game, with some scenes being «dramatically» changed. Another departure will see a decent portion of the game allegedly take place at night, including an early sequence featuring protagonist Leon Kennedy fighting off a horde of infected villagers.
In another twist, even the tone of Resident Evil 4 Remake might be altered. The original game was noteworthy for steering the franchise away from survival-horror and towards a more action-packed experience, but the remake could return to the game's spookier roots. According to Fanbyte, this direction is inspired by Resident Evil 4's original prototype builds, which had a heavy emphasis on horror and supernatural elements.
