Issues at launch
The Resident Evil 4 Remake experience is unfortunately not yet at the top. In the PS5 version, there is a phenomenon of flickering – flickering on the screen – which will be fixed in an update. On the other hand, on PS4, it is a disaster. Clipping do you want some here, runny textures and framerate that goes below 30fps, it’s not fun. It will be necessary to see to what extent future patches will be able to correct the shooting on the old generation, the version which poses the most problem.
And after this release, what will happen to Resident Evil 4 Remake? If successful, the PSVR 2 mode in development should offer increased immersion. In subjective view? Capcom did not give details. In addition, the DLCs of Ada Wong could be offered in the coming months. Dataminers have found traces of the “Seperate ways” content by going through the files.
In April, RE4 Remake will further increase its lifespan with the highly anticipated Mercenaries mode. A free addition entirely geared towards scoring. In the original, we had the choice between five characters to eliminate the greatest number of opponents in a limited time. According to the results, we won more or less stars and in case of no fault, a new weapon could be obtained.
Resident Evil 4 Remake est disponible sur PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S et PC.
