Resident Evil 1 Remake To Have Slower Pace; Will Further Expand On The Game's Lore

Many details for the upcoming rumored Resident Evil 1 remake have already leaked online. Capcom appears to have huge ambitions for it.

[XiNatsuDragnel]

Sounds interesting I'll be interested in the second remake of re1

[Cacabunga]

They game cube remake was mind blowing.. another remake would be nice but i was really hoping for Code Veronica first

[XiNatsuDragnel]

Absolutely

[-Foxtrot]

If it's true they are probably leading up to RE5 with the Chris vs Wesker story

RE1, CV and then RE5

[Terry_B]

Their REmake is still one of the best 3 video game remakes ever made.

[Cacabunga]

Terry

Zero was not a remake but an amazing game as well. I hope they remake that one one day with some coop play.. great great game

[maelstromb]

The whole Lisa Trevor side-story was an incredible addition and really fleshed out more of the lore. It could have easily felt tacked on to artificially extend the length of the game, but it felt 'right' like it should have been in there from the beginning. I'm hoping they include that in the Re-remake.

[Yui_Suzumiya]

Code Veronica definitely needs it the most!

[fsfsxii]

Cant wait until they cut the basement section and replace it with something worse.

[Becuzisaid]

While I want another modern remake of 1, I think code Veronica should be first. The first re1 remake holds up amazingly well. Give CV it's due.

[Scissorman]

As long as the Crimson Heads are back.

[Nerdmaster]

I hope they don't. They were created mainly to justify Wesker not really dying, and they do create more tension, but they don't make much sense.
Re-reviving things that were twice dead? Why would the virus stop there and not keep reviving them forever (until the head gets destroyed)?
And also the characters knowing that destroying their heads keep them from becoming crimson heads, while having a combat knife and lots of heavy objects around to do it while they're down, but having to rely on lucky shots or burning them with oil?
They can create other stuff that serves the same purpose of creating tension but that makes more sense.

[Levii_92]

Come on State of Play already!!!

[__y2jb]

Instantly my most anticipated game.

[-Foxtrot]

Great news

I just hope they expand on the map and do what they did for the original remake where they added more sections to the Mansion.

It is a shame though that they didn't keep this idea for when they are finally ready to reboot in the future, used this as a remake-reboot then continue the new timeline from here unless they plan to do this with RE5s remake and split it off into a new timeline before they get to RE6.

[Armyofdarkness]

Imagine Lisa Trevor in this. Going to be so awesome if true!!

[on_line_forever]

If there is RE1 remake it should include RE0 & RE1 together in one game and expand the mansion and the stories

[Dirty_Lemons]

RE REmake's REmake. Excited if true.

[BigBosss]

RE1 Remake on GB is amazing and still lives up! Can't wait to revisit the mansion!

[ironmonkey]

They should add side quests and certain areas with respawning zombies/everything else. Keep it terrifying nonstop.

[Friendlygamer]

Oh hell nah, should they also add armor, stats upgrades and dodge roll ?

[CantThinkOfAUsername]

Why flirt? Just go ahead and make it a full blown RPG. Surely that's what the fans want.

[shaenoide]

Is that possible to.make the pace slower ?

[VersusDMC]

Maybe they mean compared to the more action based RE4 remake? I think it will be like RE2R in pace.

[neutralgamer1992]

I think they are trying to rewrite the story from earlier games to bring everything together. Can’t wait to play it

[Barlos]

I'm good with slower pace as long as the atmosphere and general feel is in keeping with the original.

But please, get rid of the crimson heads.

[on_line_forever]

Agreed

[Zenzuu]

All of the entries, Code Veronica should be the one getting remake.

[Aussiesummer]

Man I hope it's true, a slow burning reimagening with more exploration around the awesome manor where it all started, can't wait!

[gold_drake]

im all for a slower paced re1, im glad they adjust the story to fit in with theit new mainline ones.

[KwietStorm_BLM]

Cries in code veronica

[jznrpg]

For me this was the best RE. 2 was really good too but 1 had that amazement you can’t get back as 3D games were newer plus it had moonlight sonata. I’ll definitely get the remake. I hope they can catch some of the magic of the first game that would be a huge achievement

[Nerdmaster]

I hope that by "slower pace" it doesn't mean those boring segments where you don't have any way to defend yourself like the beginning of RE7 or the house with the giant monster baby in Village.

And... "However, more bullets will be required to kill them off than in the RE2 remake"
WTH. Zombies being sponge bullets in RE2 Remake was one of its main flaws. I really hope this information is wrong.

[Nerdmaster]

I hope that by "slower pace" it doesn't mean those boring segaments where you don't have any way to defend yourself like the beginning of RE7 or the house with the giant monster baby in Village.

[Gaming4Life1981]

I love Resident Evil 1 but can we please get a Code Veronica remake

[CrimsonWing69]

Why do I get the feeling they’re actively avoiding a Code Veronica Remake, at this point?
