AestheticGamer1 kept his answers vague, stressing how drastically the game may change between now and its announcement. He also noted that Capcom intends to expand Resident Evil 4’s story to a greater extent than it did in the remakes of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3, teasing more screen time for Dr.

Twitter user AestheticGamer1 teased information about the forthcoming remake to his followers last night.
