Let’s see what some of the other reviews on the web are saying:
IGN (10/10)
“Whether you’re a fan of the original or a newcomer looking for the highest quality action-packed horror, Resident Evil 4 is like a pest-infested Spaniard: a total no-brainer.”
“Capcom has masterfully crafted a new version of a beloved game and continues to lead the way with its Resident Evil remakes.”
“Everything looks and sounds amazing, works perfectly and makes for a glorious return to the top for all-time great action. Welcome, stranger.”
“Capcom has faithfully recreated a true classic, bringing it into the modern age and outfitting it with new content, formidable combat, and stunning visuals.”
“The Resident Evil 4 Remake is pretty much everything I could have wished for. But, most importantly, it doesn’t overwrite its predecessor. On the contrary, this remake reinforces why the original Resident Evil 4 is a game that people should always research, play or at least watch and learn.”
“The fact that Resident Evil 4 Remake works so well, channeling much of the exact same ethos as the original, just goes to show why it was a classic in the first place.”
“It’s the past, present and future of action horror brought together in an instant classic that lives up to its predecessor.”
“I can’t deny that I’m annoyed by some cut content, and the gameplay mechanics aren’t always smooth, but overall, Resident Evil 4 It’s a great action-horror game and I’ll definitely be playing it many times over the coming months.”
“I’m sure some will prefer it because it’s more modern and moody, but does everyone have to run and buy it from day one? Only if you’re the kind of Resident Evil enthusiast who takes all the tickets.”
The vast majority of reviews available today for the Resident Evil 4 Remake are overwhelmingly positive, with the game sitting on a 93 Metacritical rating for PS5 right now, and a 91 note for Xbox Series X and S.
