❤ Survival Horror Gameplay

Players must carefully manage their limited resources, as ammunition, healing items, and other supplies are scarce. This forces players to make strategic decisions, often opting to run and evade enemies rather than engaging in direct combat. The constant tension and dread of this survival-focused playstyle create a genuinely terrifying experience.

❤ Exploration and Puzzle Solving

The game world rewards exploration, as key items and clues are frequently hidden in obscure locations. Solving the many environmental puzzles requires keen observation, lateral thinking, and a meticulous eye for detail. This mental challenge complements the physical challenge of combat, providing a well-rounded experience.

❤ Varied Encounter Design

Players will face a diverse array of enemies, each with unique behaviors and weaknesses. Common zombies are just the beginning, as players will also encounter mutated creatures like Lickers and the relentless pursuer Mr. X. Adapting one's tactics to each enemy type is crucial, as a one-size-fits-all approach will quickly lead to defeat. This variety ensures that combat scenarios remain engaging throughout the playthrough.

❤ Modernized Controls and Camera

The over-the-shoulder third-person camera perspective provides a more immersive and intuitive experience compared to the fixed camera angles of the original. The modernized controls allow for smoother movement and aiming, striking a balance between classic Resident Evil gameplay and modern design sensibilities.

❤ Replayability and Alternate Scenarios

Players can experience two distinct playable campaigns, one for Leon Kennedy and one for Claire Redfield. While the core narrative is the same, each character's story offers unique sequences, challenges, and rewards. Completing one campaign unlocks the ability to play through the other character's "2nd Run" scenario, which features altered environments and events. This encourages multiple playthroughs and a sense of freshness with each new experience.
