Resident Evil 3 PS5 Upgrade Could Be Close to Release

Now this IS exciting!! YES!

More interested in the next-Gen version of 2 honestly, but I’ll take this too.

Can we get a remake of Code Veronica please!?

Yeah, I'd enjoy a CV Remake. I wouldn't mind replaying but before I give up limited space on my SSD for this, I'd like to see quality side by side comparisons of PS4 vs PS5 shots to see if it's worth it.

Really hope there's something new for the PS4 version would love some more content or an optional 1st person mode

Can’t wait to replay this on PS5. I liked the RE2 remake but RE3 remake was so much better. If there was a Mr X-less version of RE2, they’d be about the same.

Just give me the upgrade for RE2RE so I can use the adaptive triggers :]

@BritneyfR_ee If RE3RE actually had a Mr. X version for Nemesis I would probably enjoy it more than RE2RE but unfortunately Nemesis is just a mix of set pieces and disappointing boss fights :/

I'll take another reason to revisit RE 2, 3, & 7 again.
A 120fps option would be great, but what I'd really love to see for the PS5 version is gyro aiming.
Some of the RE games Capcom has released for Switch support gyro controls (RE Revelations 1 & 2) but Capcom and most other companies completely ignore gyro support for PS4/PS5. I don't understand it 😕... Either way, I'm looking forward to playing these games on one of my new LG C1 OLED TV's. I know they will look amazing 😍

@Nepp67 I think that’s why I liked RE3 remake more. Being constantly pursued makes the game more intense but also much more annoying when you just want to explore and take in the atmosphere.

I played the original RE2 so many times when I was younger but I never played scenario B with Mr X, so when he showed up in the remake I was like, ‘who the hell are you and why are you ruining one of my favourite games.’

Having him there from the start in scenario A changes the game so much (and not for the better imo).

Bought it last year on sale but never started it so i'm looking forward to the upgrade and glad i waited.

I'm one of the rare people that actually liked this just as much if not more than the RE2 Remake, so I find it really easy to not look back at it as nothing less than a blast. This will be a great excuse to play it all over again.

@BritneyfR_ee Yeah, that did get really annoying at times. It was supposed to make the game really scary and intense I suppose, but there were times when it was just extremely annoying. I ended up running off to a complete other section of the police station, making it impossible for him to find me again, but abracadabra, he'd be right there again within a couple of minutes. Really killed a portion of the police station part of the game, which is a shame because I thought the game was great otherwise.

@itsfoz why?

They all look fine as they are? Why even bother

@MrXstomping I mean, it’s not that serious lol

Mr X wasn’t in the original RE2 game (scenario A). He was only in the B scenario. It would be like if they remade Silent Hill 2 but you’re constantly being pursued by Pyramid Head. No, no, no. Atmosphere ruined.

If the RE2 remake didn’t have Mr X and RE3 had a Mr X-like Nemesis, I would have preferred RE2. But because RE2 had Mr X, I was glad that RE3 didn’t follow suit. It felt more like the old RE games. And RE3 was a much more enjoyable RE experience for that reason.

@BritneyfR_ee Yeah, Mr X annoyed me. It was just too much. Combined with the annoying decision to allow the Zombies to keep getting back up. I loved the Resi 2 remake but it did spoil it for me a little.

Wish we'd get real directors cuts of Re2 and 3. I'd legit pay full price for more content that isn't standalone cheap DLC crap.

@BritneyfR_ee I beg to differ, hearing Mr. X just walking around the building added to that atmosphere and always made things intense cause you knew you were never safe(Unless you went into a saferoom). That's why I especially enjoyed RE7 and 8 even if Dimitrescu wasn't as scary.

They shouldn't have bothered, the game was really bad, and nowhere near to the standard of resident evil 2 remake or RE7, particularly in VR.

@Nepp67 I wouldn’t have minded as much if there was an option to play the game without him (like the original).

For me, surviving a zombie outbreak (and other nasties) was scary enough without some hulking Jason Voorhees stalking my every move.

Reminds me of that quote from Jurassic World :

“These days, kids look at a Stegosaurus like an elephant from the city zoo - - - But consumers want them bigger, louder, more teeth.”

I don’t need ‘bigger, louder, more teeth.’ The original was fine as it was.

Overall I did enjoy RE3 remake, but Capcom left out too many original locations. Distinct uptown and downtown sections, the newspaper office, the park, dead factory -gone, the gas station only appears in a cutscene, and the hospital is drastically scaled back, with the vaccine acquisition oversimplified. The game was far too brief

@BritneyfR_ee same, same about everything including playing the scenario A. Lol.

@BritneyfR_ee A little insulting of a quote to use but alright, can't please everyone though.

@WaveBoy Thanks for the information. I kinda figured 120fps support would be included, seeing as these games run at 60fps on last gen hardware (PS4 Pro, Xbox One X)
I would LOVE to see gyro support, but I doubt Capcom will include it.
Always wanted to try RE7 in VR but I didn't buy a PSVR. Not enough games in VR that I was interested in to make the purchase seem worth it for me.
Anyways, I'm looking forward to replying these games on my LG C1 OLED either way. Mabey Capcom will re-release these games with gyro controls on the Switch 2 or whatever Nintendo calls there next console. I'd definitely buy them again for portable play.

This game might be a let down compared to OG RE3, however it plays great and it's fantastic Capcom are giving the upgrade for free.

Keeping my fingers crossed for an expanded version - (though probably won't happen)

@WaveBoy Having recently played RE original, RE 2 original and RE 3 original - they still hold up.

OG RE3 quirks - actually help the player- e.g. getting nemmy stuck on the environment. And I am sure they can fix door times - many RE games have door skip on certain ports and fan patches.

To me, lack of clocktower isn't a huge deal - however the lack of live selection - choices that actually impact the playthrough and the scenes you get.

I love how RE 3 remake plays, it just lacks things that made RE 3 OG special, and too little Nemmy.

@KidBoruto RE2 is missing the real A/B scenarios with different ways the story plays out, different bosses because of this, item layouts, some enemies missing, and some other smaller stuff. That said I love RE2make and it's probably my second favorite in the series right behind the original. It wouldn't be any massive thing to add so it would be cool as a directors cut. it would mainly be more of a change to make the story actually make sense for both characters. I'd love for them to make a better effort with the music too, if there's one thing RE3make did it was the incredible remade score.
