Resident Evil 4 Remake
Looks like Capcom is remaking all the classic Resident Evil games with the new gameplay and graphical style. RE4 remake will launch on March 24, 2023. It will be available on PS5, Xbox Series X and S, and PC. No last-gen versions have been announced.
Similar to the RE 2 and 3 remakes, RE4 remake will deliver truly next-gen visuals, modernized gameplay, and a reimagined, deeper storyline while faithfully preserving the essence and maintaining the legacy of the original. Based on the trailer, there might be more nighttime scenes than in the original, which means a bigger focus on horror.
Final Fantasy XVI
Square Enix has just revealed a gameplay trailer for their next mainline FF game, Final Fantasy 16. It is scheduled to come out in summer 2023. Final Fantasy 16 follows the journey of a warrior named Clive Rosfield, who embarks on a quest for revenge, alongside his brother Joshua Rosfield and his foster sister Jill Warrick.
The central part of the plot is the Eikons, summoned monsters controlled by or manifesting through humans called Dominants.
The Callisto Protocol
This is a new story-driven, single-player survival horror game from the creators of Dead Space. In this game, players would fight to survive the horrors locked within the walls of Black Iron Prison after a mysterious outbreak throws it into chaos. Jacob will battle the prison’s guards and inmates, who are mutating into creatures called Biophage, as he uncovers the mysteries of the moon, its prison, and the United Jupiter Company who runs it.
The game used to be part of the PUBG universe, but after bad reception from fans, the devs have decided to scrap that element.
Spider-Man: Remastered PC port
Looks like almost all PlayStation exclusive titles are coming to PC. Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered is coming to Windows PC on Aug. 12. It is the upgraded version of Insomniac's hit action game for PlayStation consoles and would include the add-on DLC The City That Never Sleeps. Furthermore, Insomniac and Nixxes also plan to bring Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales to PC sometime this fall.
