Resident Evil 4 Remake Has Made An Unforgivable Mistake

Previews for the Resident Evil 4 remake are live, and a noticeable change has been made in the early hours of the game that has resulted in a backlash from fans. A new Resident Evil 4 remake trailer was revealed during Capcom’s Resident Evil Showcase, showing a game that is a mostly-faithful adaptation of the original. There is some new content added in, as well as changes made to the existing combat system that help modernize the experience.In the original version of Resident Evil 4, when Leon approaches the village, he will hear a dog yelping in pain. If the player follows the sounds, they will find a dog stuck in a bear trap. If they choose to free the dog (and those who don’t are monsters on par with those who lock the butler in the freeze in Tomb Raider 2) will be rewarded later in the game. During the El Gigante battle, the dog will return and assist Leon in the battle, acting as a distraction, while the player uses the opportunity to reload, heal, or get some free shots in at the boss.Related: Resident Evil 4’s Remake Can Avoid RE3’s Worst MistakesResident Evil 4 remake has changed the characters from the original game, including updating the outfits of several cast members.

Resident Evil 4 Remake Has Killed The Dog

Resident Evil 4 Remake Has Made An Unforgivable Mistake

In the Resident Evil 4 remake, when Leon is traveling to the village at the start of the game, the dog is now dead. The player finds their corpse in the bear trap, which means they won’t be around to help later in the game. This has, understandably, upset fans who are saddened to see an animal killed in a video game. The Resident Evil 4 dog is one of the best video game dogs of all time and it’s sad to see that it won’t be aiding Leon in the Resident Evil 4 remake.

It bears mentioning that the preview isn’t the final version of the game, and it’s possible that the dog will be included later. There’s also a chance that the developers got rid of the dog to give the game a more realistic feel, as the dog coming to save Leon from the giant monster is one of the sillier moments in the original game. Even if that was the case, then the player should still have the chance to save it, even if it doesn’t return later, as its role in the game was to warn the player of the bear traps. The death of the dog could signify that the Resident Evil 4 remake has a darker tone than the original game, which might not necessarily be a good thing, as the B-movie action style was part of the original’s charm.
