Set six years after the events of Resident Evil 2 and 3, RE4 protagonist Leon Kennedy is now the personal bodyguard of the United States president. When the president&#8217;s daughter goes missing, Leon is dispatched to a remote European village to find her. As you might expect, things don&#8217;t go well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p> <iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameBorder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/players.brightcove.net\/694940074001\/rydylbNsz_default\/index.html?videoId=6307255512112\"><\/iframe> <\/p>\n<p>We then see our first look at gameplay, and to be clear, visually, it looks great. The footage is set during the very beginning of the game, when Leon arrives outside the village in the forest. Compared to the original game, the forest is far darker and scarier. &#8220;We want to nail the feeling of loneliness&nbsp;and fear of not knowing what lies ahead, even more so than the original,&#8221;&nbsp;Hirabayashi said during the presentation. &#8220;Of course, there will also be thrilling battles.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;d be excused if you expected a glimpse at those thrilling battles, but unfortunately, no such look&nbsp;came. Our look at gameplay ends as Leon walks up to a house in the middle of the forest \u2013 which ostensibly is where Leon encounters the&nbsp;first Ganado, as is the case in the original RE4.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m more excited for the Resident Evil 4 remake than any other game we currently know about; the original is one of my all-time favorite games. Which makes this reveal fairly disappointing. I would&#8217;ve loved an actual look at the game, but that wasn&#8217;t in the cards today. Here&#8217;s hoping we&#8217;ll get a better look in the future.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/capcom-showcase\/2022\/06\/13\/heres-your-first-look-at-resident-evil-4-remake-gameplay\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today during the Capcom Showcase livestream, the company touched base on its recently-announced Resident Evil 4 remake \u2013 including showing all of a few seconds of gameplay.
