    A faithful remaster. Better than the original in every way.

    It nice to be back in the world of RE4 again!

    Incredible game that got me into the series. I love how the remake added more exploration and puzzle elements than the original and it’s just an all around fantastically entertaining game.

    Resident evil 4 era uno de los mejores survival horror de la historia pero con este remake me atrevo a decir que no tienen rival, supo evolucionar muy bien con respecto a sus predecesores, combina a la perfección el terror con la acción.

    I think it's a great remake. Most of the parts that I didn't like in the original were corrected and a unity was provided in the story. The graphics, mechanics and gameplay are perfect. Expecting loyalty to the original is an unnecessary admiration, let's be open to innovations. Let's face it, capcom has done a great remake. I'm excited for the remake of the 5th game.

    the remake made the original way better, a lot of content in just story and overall gameplay, side mission, etc, the only bad thing this time was the RE engine was not really good optimized, or i would give it 10, the game also is really fun overall, side missions, secrets things, things they totally forgot in the original resident evil 4, solid game, you need to have a good hardware, atthe remake made the original way better, a lot of content in just story and overall gameplay, side mission, etc, the only bad thing this time was the RE engine was not really good optimized, or i would give it 10, the game also is really fun overall, side missions, secrets things, things they totally forgot in the original resident evil 4, solid game, you need to have a good hardware, at least the same as resident evil 8.… Expand

    Jogo maravilhoso, a versão de Playstation 5 está ótima. Foram fiel em muitos detalhes do original e fico muito feliz por isso. Porém a versão de Playstation 4 deixou a desejar muito !

    Not the OG RE4, but for a remake it's among the best. Played the hell out of this game. XD

    As someone who never played or got into the original Resident Evil 4 from 2005, I went into the remake blind and with an open mind. Nothing could have prepared me for the amazing and beautiful offering Capcom had once again delivered. from the gun variety, to the distinct locations and arenas, to unique boss fights.

    Whenever you feel useless, just remember there are losers who spend their entire lives hating this Masterpiece (and failing at it, because this game was already huge success).

    Phenomenal work Capcom, very good remake. Nothing is funnier than watching those poor haters, trying to desperately upvote their own negative reviews lmao. But ironically they are even too slow for that or maybe they are just getting tired, either way they are not just clowns, they are entire circus lol.

    Amazing remake! Possibly one of the best games Capcom has ever made. Makes me so happy that good Resident Evil is finally back. Hopefully they do RE5 Remake next, because nobody wants this boring and pointless Code Veronica.

    Surprisingly good remake, one of the best games of 2023 and solid improvement over original. Also better than RE2 Remake. RE2 Remake was good for what it was, but RE4 is overall best Resident Evil game.

    This is best remake Capcom has done so far, amazing work. RE2R was great, but RE4 has always been better RE game, so obviously RE4R is also automatically better than RE2R. But that's okay of course, both good, but RE4 always the best!

    RE4 Remake is obviously amazing, i have finished it already 10 times. But what is hilarious about Metacritic, is to watch these absolute nolifer losers trying to desperately upvote their fake pathetic negative reviews, even tho everyone knows that they already lost lmao. I hope they keep doing it, because this is my new favorite entertainment lol.

    As most people have already said, this really is amazing remake. Don't be fooled by those sad 0/10 reviews, these are just pathetic trolls who have nothing better to do with their empty lives. They don't even own this game.

    I just want to make sure that everyone understands that, these who review bomb this game with their 0/10 reviews and nonsensical takes on this game, are not real RE4 fans. They never were and they never will be. Real RE4 fans have been absolutely enjoying this remake and proof is literally on Youtube and Steam. I have been fan of RE4 since 2005 and i absolutely love this remake.

    This game is a perfect Resident Evil game. It was worth every penny. As a fan of the series, I can say with bold confidence that this was a 5 out of 5.

    Very well done remake, good job Capcom! I was reading these user reviews here and i feel like, RE fans should just chill. Literally nobody cares about these negative 0/10 fake reviews on this site. They are all fake and posted by some absolute losers who never liked RE4. These scores mean nothing. Only scores that means anything are on Steam and those are Overwhelmingly positive. JustVery well done remake, good job Capcom!

    Great remake. Waiting for Assignment Ada and Separate Ways, but i'm totally fine, if they are not free, because they weren't free on original GameCube version either. They released later on PS2 version.

    The story of the game is a mediocre story, the gameplay is very enjoyable and attractive, in terms of visuals, it is equal to Cross Gen 2023 games and has a stunning visual, the main boss fights are very similar to each other. The sound design of the game is wonderful, the enemies have a good variety and only one new type of enemy has been added to the remake compared to the original version.

    Overall it holds together very well, and even though I played the whole game in two days with minimal sleep, I didn't even think about taking a break for a while. [Issue#327]

    Resident Evil 4 Remake not only does right by its original source of inspiration, but it also sets a high bar for what modern day remakes can be. All components of the story have been finetuned into a more well-thought out package, and that’s before mentioning the game’s full use of today’s graphical prowess to deliver a more terrifying interpretation of rural Spain. The core gameplay also retains what made it so great back in the day, but with modern amenities such as a parrying system, quick-select for weapons and the ability to run. And despite the new improvements, the increased aggressiveness of the enemies ensures that the game never feels like a cakewalk. I don’t know who still needs to be convinced at this point, but Resident Evil 4 is a masterpiece that I cannot recommend enough.
