Media: Development of Resident Evil 4 remake has been completely relaunched

According to VGC, the development of the Resident Evil 4 remake had to be restarted. The reason for this was the disagreement between the developers of M-Two and the publisher Capcom.

Now, work on rethinking the fourth Resident Evil will be entrusted to the internal studio of Capcom - Division 1. With past developers, the conflict began in late 2020.

Capcom wanted to change a deeper rethinking of the original Resident Evil 4 with changes to some gameplay moments, plot and locations. M-Two wanted to stick to the canon as much as possible, just slightly tweaking the well-working aspects.

However, this is not the first time for the series of Resident Evil relaunches. As reported by all the same VGC, they went through similar situations when developing remakes of the second and third Resident Evil 4.
