Resident Evil 4 Remake is set to be one of the most thrilling action-horror games to come out in 2023. Even though it is technically a remake, comparing it with its 18-year-old predecessor will only reveal similarities in the story as the gameplay is generations apart. With that said, let’s see how closely the remake follows the original’s storyline and chapter decomposition.
How Many Chapters Are In RE4 Remake?
Resident Evil 4 Remake, just like the original, is composed of five main chapters, where each chapter is split into smaller sub-chapters. After all, Capcom has no reason to deviate from the original game’s chapter decomposition, as was seen in Resident Evil 2’s and 3’s remakes.
