Resident Evil 4 Playstation 5 PS5G RE4

Description

A thrilling reimagining of Capcom’s groundbreaking action-horror classic. Resident Evil 4, 2005’s legendary survival horror, is brought fully up-to-date in this ground-up remake and now available on Playstation 5!

Six years after the events of Resident Evil 2, Raccoon City survivor Leon Kennedy has been dispatched to a secluded European village to investigate the disappearance of the US president’s daughter. What he discovers there is unlike anything he has faced before.

Every aspect of the classic game has been updated for the current generation, from modernized graphics and controls, to a reimagined storyline that may surprise even hardened fans of the original game.

Expect the unexpected
Familiar scenarios are filled with new surprises. Discover secret environmental interactions and twists on classic moments.

A new breed of enemy
Ganados aren’t mindless zombies. These parasite-infected villagers wield weapons and will work together to bring Leon down.

What are you buying?
Visit the mysterious Merchant to purchase and tune up your weapons, as well as trade for special wares.

Rearranged
Right from Resident Evil 4’s opening moments, seasoned players will feel like they’ve returned home – only the furniture isn’t where they left it. Expanded dialogue, reimagined cutscenes and restructured level layouts make familiar moments feel new and unpredictable again. Whether you’ve played the original or are visiting this terrifying world for the first time, there are plenty of surprises in store.

Retrained
Leon is even better equipped to battle the hordes of Ganados than before. Fans of the original will immediately notice the added fluidity and freedom to his movement, and all players will appreciate the renewed focus on Leon’s knife skills. Previously a last-resort weapon, knives are now an essential tool that enable stealth kills, last-second escapes and attack-deflecting parries.

Revitalized
A stunning graphical upgrade and fully redesigned audio takes the detail, the atmosphere and the animation of Resident Evil 4 to the next level. The PlayStation 5 version lets you prioritise frame rate or resolution, with support for ray tracing. The game also makes the most of the DualSense wireless controller’s features, using the internal speaker for radio communications, and utilising the haptic feedback and adaptive triggers to give weapons an even greater sense of weight and power.

Reorganized
The satisfaction of a well-organised attaché case was one the original game’s subtler pleasures, allowing you to organise your inventory as efficiently – or as chaotically – as you liked. This iconic system returns for the remake, with the addition of an auto-sort feature for those who want to focus on the action, and a selection of unlockable cases and attachable charms that grant Leon a variety of perks.

Retooled
As with the remakes of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3, it’s now possible to assign weapons to the directional pad and quick-swap between them in the heat of battle. With the right items, you can also create additional ammo – and you’re going to need it. Unique to the Resident Evil 4 remake is the ability to sell key items that are no longer useful for extra pesetas, and the repurposing of the collectible spinel gems as a tradable resource for unique items.

Resident Evil 4 is now available on Playstation 5!
