Resident Evil 3 Remake’s pre-order bonuses include, among other things, a classic Jill Valentine costume inspired by her iconic blue boob tube and miniskirt from the 1999 PSone original. Unfortunately, it’s left some vocal fans fuming, as Capcom has opted to exchange the protagonist’s bottom layer for a pair of shorts. No pantie shots for you, readers.
In some particularly eye-opening exchanges, franchise fans ponder the idea of launching a class action lawsuit against the publisher, claiming that this is false advertising. Others blame Sony’s “draconian” policy against oversexualised games. The truth is that the company probably felt the slightly altered costume retained the spirit of the original while making more sense in its more realistic adaptation.
Whatever the case, there are bigger things in the world to worry about right now, like can you kill Nemesis to begin with? You can learn more about the game in our full Resident Evil 3 remake walkthrough, which also includes all gun upgrade locations and all herb combinations and their effects.

So it doesn’t MATTER matter, but I guess if they messed with Tifa’s outfit a lot in the remake I’d be a bit like y dey do dat
@FullbringIchigo It's a bit embarrassing for sure.
I'll expect One Angry Gamer write an article about this.
Beleaguered sigh.
How do I get a refund?
@FullbringIchigo but would you raise an eyebrow if they put Tifa in shorts in the remake? Her skirt is pretty iconic to fans. I’m not saying you need to get mad about it, and realistically most people are not as annoyed as you make it sound.
@FullbringIchigo people can care about two things at once. Not everything needs to focus on the pandemic lol.
Errrr. I can't believe i have to say this but if lookin up animated skirts is ur thing there is plenty of that available elsewhere
@kyleforrester87 wouldn't bother me in the slightest honestly
plus she always wore shorts in FFVII anyway under her skirt
Regarding comments - It could also be argued There are more important things than posting ps4 stories on a Sony website, there are more important things than reading them and posting replies. People need to entertain themselves whilst in lockdown. I suspect phycologists would tell you at times like this you get deferred anger away from the main cause of the issues and to a less important subject. It’s a coping mechanism- it’s not embarrassing. People need to be kind and be careful who they are aiming anger and insults at the longer this goes on.
Be kind people.
I dunno, if you get your kicks from looking up polygonal skirts then I think you have more to worry about than a skort.
I love the new Jill look and I think her VA is great. Bang up job, Capcom.
Costume looks cool, I'm just sad they skipped on the mercenaries mode. I'm sure I'll get over it eventually.
Seriously, this era of people complaining about characters either being too sexualised or not enough is ridiculous.
I mean, what is the big deal either way? It's a game, just play it.
No one knows if their coming or going these days. You've got people complaining about Persona5R to cover up Kasumi and on the other hand Jill Valentine isn't naked enough? It's freaking madness!
oh boohoo i don't get to look at digital assflaps.
WHO CARES!!!!!!
srsly people need to grow up.
sometimes being a gamer is embarrasing the way the comunity makes a fuss about everything. watch this become the new sensorship controversy.
I think it's perfectly okay to point out you'd prefer if the retro design was more faithful to the retro design. Nothing too important to stay on that topic for too long, but worth pointing out if you feel like it imo.
@ApostateMage Agreed probably the best jill
I get wanting to preserve the original outfit, but if you have to resort to low-angle shots to see if any changes were made, I think it's fair to say that you're looking for something to be outraged about.
These people should just get PCs. Even weak-ish ones will run this game fine, and they can mod it to include the original skirt, or make everyone nude, or whatever.
@SoulsBourne128 With a comments section full of insane people talking about how this is part of a Jewish conspiracy to eradicate white, heterosexual men.
That website is basically Stormfront, lol
People are wasting their time with Jill's skirtless skirt when there's more pressing matters in the world.
Like where is Nemesis' skirt? Maybe he wants to trade in the trench coat with something more free flowing?
"...the company probably felt the slightly altered costume retained the spirit of the original while making more sense in its more realistic adaptation."
This. This is all it is.
Bloody hell these babies are annoying.
@PcTV apparently its not. The ones who think it's not are getting angry, insulting and screeching that you like to "lOoK uP pOlYgOn SkIrTs" lol
I personally don't care either way, character designs don't bother me, but let people like what they like.
@Shepherd_Tallon well tbf in the original she wasn't dressing for a Zombie apocalypse. She was dressing for a farewell party, skirt made sense then. I can see why people are, as you put it, being annoying babies...
Honestly it seems the only ones angry here are the ones are getting upset at people for preferring the original design. You lot seem more angry than anyone else for some reason. Going as far as to insult them as perverts 😂
Just be kind, dudes.
My heart breaks for the perverts.
With every thing happening in the world at the moment this upsets me terribly..I really wanted to see Jills backside!
Yep,grow up people,I think she looks great and a real bad ass!
@Wazeddie22 #stunningandbrave
This whole whining is just embarassing.
“Sony’s “draconian” policy...”
This really really really irritates me.
Not the policy itself but the fact they‘re being so hypocritical with it. I mean they’re censoring women’s clothing etc and in doing so effectively saying its not politically correct or not acceptable. Yet almost all of their games they’re happy for people to shoot others in the face, stab someone in the back, run people over, blow people up etc which guess what, also isn’t politically correct or acceptable.
I love Sony and their games but this irritates the sh*t out of me and I wish they’d just stop trying to do the right thing. If that’s the stance they want to take then fair enough but they shouldn’t stop at censoring clothes, they should censor all of their violent games.
all the moronic comments here puked up because 'i'm going to take the moral high ground because I care about every single human on earth' is nauseating, when is not something more important than 'video game industry done bad again' I'm now rolling my eyes very slowly. Throwing insults at anyone being disappointed by garbage decisions by Capcom/Sony/Whoever is pathetic. Please step off your sanctimonious soap box and stop chastising opinions because bleuurrgghhh.
Some fun 'news' for a change 👍
"inspired by her iconic blue boob tube". What? LOL
@Deadlyblack You're welcome. Cant get more free and breezy than this for our nemesis pal:
https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2020-03-28-nemesis-in-beach-trunks-is-the-true-resident-evil-3-remake-horror
@Rob_230 I like how that mod looks like Mr. X with a Nemesis mask on.
Sex starved teenagers complain they can’t look up a characters skirt. Adults complain in comments section about censorship and ethics departments. Rest of the world continues to know it’s harmful to women, virtual or otherwise, to treat them as objects.
@Dodoo You Think This IS Sony's Doing Come On Dude Give Capcom Some Credit They did This All On There Own
Violence in videogames? Yes! Very good!
Woman shows boobie or god forbid, her vajulia? Hell no! Think of the children!
This whole taboo around female nudity is wack. I'm not saying I care that much about this in particular but it's beyond comprehensible to me. The moral standards are way out of place, there's nothing wrong with showing skin, we all have it. It's nature.
What!? This game is ruined for me now... This is the worst thing that has ever happened to any one at any time in the history of ever.
lol
New gamers especially from Western they don’t care about anything they don’t care about censorship nothing but what capcom japan did here was false advertise a product the pre-owner said “classic outfit” The people who preorder are the original fans and any newbies will never understand while the rest was expecting to get the original outfit, Capcom can face a lawsuit here doesn’t matter if you agree Or not.
I don’t think they need to include upkskirt shots (or put shorts under the skirt), but an original costume should be original with a a skirt. Changing it to shirts kinda defeats the purpose.
Edit: did not mean to say upskirt shots were needed, refer to the part of the post about the shorts under the skirt...
@nessisonett can you call it polygonal anymore? It’s photorealistic now so it doesn’t matter.
I think it doesn’t matter because soon, nude mods are gonna solve the problem
@eshtebala I think the point remains that she’s not a real woman. It’s not exactly the most titillating thing in the world seeing virtual panties.
In the end the 'classic' outfit looks good and threatening a lawsuit is laughable even more so is putting this one on Sony when the game's art director already came out and said why they made changes and gave her a more boring, generic 'new Lara Croft' outfit. It's not surprising though, nobody is raging about it but the game is also scaled back, big time, when it comes to violence. RE 7 and REmake 2 were very visceral experiences and RE has always been at the forefront of pushing this stuff along with Mortal Kombat and GTA. Neither of these decisions is a deal breaker, just disappointing.
@Jaz007 Exactly! Shoulda definitely been a skirt with biker shorts under it instead of this thing, lol.
Haha oh wow. I agree the costume should have stayed the same but umm....lawsuit? Please....
@FullbringIchigo You mean how everybody is a stupid sheep and believing everything they hear without questioning it? Yeah...it's definitely a crazy world we live in. Glad I haven't changed a thing and intentionally "cough" around people to freak them out...it's fun to mess with all these idiots : ) . The costume thing is pretty dumb to get angry about, especially to even suggest they'd "sue"...but I don't know if it's as dumb as people are in this current state of hysteria. It's just a flu that has been made into a mass hysteria. It shows how pathetic people are and afraid of dying...when the likelihood of such things happening are the same as winning the lottery.
At least she's thicc still 😳
@nessisonett kink-shaming much?
@Dodoo I genuinely believe the change isn’t because of ‘censorship’ but instead because of a change of circumstances. In the original game, Jill could wear a skirt because the camera angles never positioned in a way in which you could look up her skirt, whereas in this game, that angle does appear. Given there’s a real problem in Japan with upskirting, it would be a bit distasteful to include it in the game. The change is only noticeable if you go out your way to look up her skirt anyway.
I'm kind of disappointed in the change of her skirt because I pre-ordered the game specifically for her original outfit for nostalgic reasons and because I like playing as feminine characters in life threatening environments in games. I'm not mad because I wanted to look up Jill's skirt nor because she wasn't "sexualized enough". Wearing a skirt doesn't sexualize a person. Resident Evil has also done panty shots in the past such as Jill's black underwear when you change her outfit to the Resident Evil 3 costume in Resident Evil 1 Remastered and you can see up her skirt when Barry is pulling her from the falling ceiling room, as well as Leon being able to look up Ashley's skirt in Resident Evil 4. However, I do understand that they probably wanted to make this game more serious and they had to change the events a little to make it that way. So Jill wasn't dressed to ever go to a farewell party in the remake so she didn't have a reason to wear a skirt. Even then, she could have worn the skirt with shorts underneath it for anyone who tried to look up her skirt. Not that it matters much, but I'm a female who loves dressing in skirts and dresses so that's also one of the reasons why I would have loved Jill in a skirt.
@Imagremlin
Truer words have never been typed in a comment section on this website.
I think these people have the right to be upset and complain because Capcom lied to them and they pre-order and pay Capcom for a the original retro costume, not something else. Capcom simply scammed the people who pre-ordered the game.
Am i the only one that has a bigger issue that this is a preorder bonus instead of a unlockable thing?
You know what people this anticensor crowd is the same crowd that went mental about a lesbian Ellie so progressive. These kids or God forbid adults have their own agenda.
If its something they dont like its censorship if its something like a lesbian girl its SJW thats why the word is a joke now.
I seen them ranting about less then a second of shot/footageof a young girls panty removed in a trailer that i had to watch serveral times after someone pointed it out with the timestamp.
@nessisonett Or it’s a noticeable change every time you look at the costume that’s supposed to the classic one. It would hav even easy to put some shorts on her under the skirt or something. Keeping the classic costume classic and not having pantyshots would be very simple.
@Flaming_Kaiser
It'll be $5 DLC in a month or so. Jill's RE 1 outfit is unlockable and God forbid games have more than 1 unlockable item these days when they can easily be turned into DLC.
you give resetera a foot in the door and this is what happen. just continue to claim things like this is not important, and in the end it will come back and bite you in the behind.
@Imagremlin oh i am afraid he is not.
Vara Dark is even worse when it comes to "censorship" things than One Angry Gamer. I think, some people have to find the hair in their soup, just to criticize something. Maybe it's jealousy or so...
I think most users have missed the fact that the tweet is by VaraDark - a woman.
@Capriciousuke Opinions like yours and Vara's - which is where the skirt issue seems to stem from - are being ignored, sidelined and misrepresented, because you don't fit the narrative of MAN IS PERVERT.
I picked the classic option for both Jill and Carlos. His new haircut is way worse than any pair of shorts Jill might be wearing
This has nothing do with ethics or censorship. It's just an excuse for people to complain about stupid stuff and act like they're not the ones whining.
Well personally I like this skort. the only thing
I'm upset about the fact that we don't have extra costumes. I would have loved a Zombie Jill. her tank top when she was in her apartment and maybe her battle suit from re5.
I'm fuming about this!
Twitter has exposed humanity for the stain that it is!
at the end of the day its a game not real life just play enjoy when people are dying it realy is a sad world when gamers moan about a costume change
If this outrages you legitimately no one can save you.
@Party_Cannon yeah the lawsuit thing is ludicrously stupid
@Gamer83 capcom, at least recently, have a very good track record with providing free dlc which is actually high quality and keeping invasive micro transactions out of most of their games.
I, like many Capcom fans, would love to see the DINO CRISIS TRILOGY remastered and rebooted. BRING OUT DINO CRISIS!!!!
I'm sure we will have plenty of decomposed corpses with sexy outfits in this remake to make up for a redesigned outfit.
I really hate those small detail changes, it's more of knee bending to people who will never support or buy their products!
They said they removed it because it wasn't practical but if you're going to make it a bonus outfit at least keep it unchanged! Still upset I didn't get it even though I did pre-order the game.
But still as bad as the cut content, RE3 Remake is the weakest RE when it comes to content!
@Gamer83 But man its the iconic costume that belongs too the game. I rather see the original as paid DLC then because i could do without it or even better no DLC but that wont happen.
@Deadlyblack Lets start a poll who wants to see nemesis in a kilt.
@draco1783 What triology there are only 2 Dino Crisis games the 3rd one was a hoax made up by the Chinese.
I don't think it matters, at all. But at the least, it's a sh*tty thing to advertise one thing, and provide another.
It doesn't really matter to anyone but coomers. Like why would she even be wearing her original outfit in a zombie warzone/pandemic?
The less visible skin for zombies to bite into the better, if you're using logic. Its cool they give the option to get a closer look to her original look but people need to move on. It was a dumb costume probably designed by a team of all men, if not majority of men, in the 90s. Thankfully now there are more women in game development, and probably more on this team or at the very least at Capcom, actually saying "uhh you guys know none of us would actually wear that in a zombie apocalypse right?"
Also what person would put on a halter top and mini skirt after waking up from nightmares of their death, in the middle of the night, with chaos outside their apartment? lol
If looking up a womans skirt just to see a bit of virtual vadge then i think you got issues.
Just appreciate the game as it's awesome ive beaten it 4 times and im on my 5th play through.
Theres more pressing things going on right now. Personally im more concerned about carlos hairdo, i mean thats some f###ing Thatch that. And don't get me started on his alternative thatch he looks like a gay porn star 😂😂😂
Can't people just imagine it in their dreams (fantasies) if that's their kick?! Heck Tifa over Jill anyday!
@DaveStead to be fair video game characters look pretty real, and Jill is clearly very attractive. Nothing wrong with perving a little 😂
