Gameplayer has previewed next years blockbuster release from Capcom, Resident Evil 5. It includes the latest information just leaked out of Japan.
"RE5 will include an artificial iris effect, whereby if you enter a building from outside it will take a couple of seconds for your 'eyes' to get used to the light levels. Capcom is confident that this will still make dark places scary and it may even make players think twice about charging into shadowed areas. In this way, an inherent fear of darkness is still maintained – but it's in contrast to the brightly lit area, and we think this is a pretty cool design mechanic."
Resident Evil 5 launched 15 years ago today - and it continues to stand as a stepping stone from the good to the bad.
One of my favourites because of the co-op. Then Resi 6 arrived and the series nosedived further.
I enjoyed the game co-oping with a friend I know the game in solo the AI can be an idiot but RE5 is way better then RE6. I played RE6 with a friend if it wasn't cheap when I got I would have avoided RE6.
5 was excellent, still play Mercs with my brother.
I would love a fully remastered RE:5, with some added, reworked content. The DLC for 5 was also excellent.
6 was awful.
I never understood why the game was misunderstood. It was a fantastic game at launch and is still fun today to play. It’s as action packed as Resident Evil 4 was, yet that’s regarded a masterpiece 🤷♂️
it was "misunderstood" because they introduced co-op into the franchise at a time when people loved to have fake rage about co-op. like, you could play the game as a solo experience, but people chose to have their bandwagon rage because it was cool at the time lol
Try to cope with your friend through terror with this list featuring the best horror Co-Op games you can play today.
An exploration of whether RE5 is truly the most logical next step for a remake, or whether there are others in line who deserve their day in the sun.
Remake of Resident evil outbreak as well as file 2. Same gameplay as the recent remakes. Choose what ever character you want to play as. With online co op.
Nope.
Rather remake other past Capcom & non-mainline RE games ... IF they have to continue churning out Remakes.
I'd rather want a new 3rd person RE spin-off
Dino Crisis and Onimusha Reboot
New IPs after Pragmata ships
its about time some one made a game in day time every game i buy i have to adjust brightness, whats the point of next gen visuals if i cant see them
hell yeah RE5 will be awesome
im not sure about the light mechanic, but that gunplay- its just incredible
i also hope that somehow the pirate makes a return, and they keep all the staples of RE like herbs and that inventory system (a lot of people hated it, but i thought it was cool)
Mixing herbs brings back memmories, especialy since first aid sprays seemed to be so hard to come across.
Keep up the good work capcom. :)

So? Most games featuring HDR lightning these days has it. Might not be such a big part of the game play in most games but the feature is in no way new.
This is the same information contained in that Video-interview with the game director. Nothing new here, but still interesting.
