We don&#8217;t yet know what the additional content will include.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The announcement that the Island will remain a part of the game even in the remake is surprising, considering some of the past Resident Evil remakes have cut large portions of content and altered portions of the story. Some of Capcom&#8217;s decisions to cut content left fans of the original games frustrated and disappointed. Such was the case for the Resident Evil 3 Remake, which left out significant portions of the original story.<\/p>\n<p>The Resident Evil 4 Remake development team likely kept fans&#8217; past feedback in mind as they developed the Island area, given their choice to expand upon it rather than remove it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, the Island section was assigned its own team during the Resident Evil 4 Remake process. The game&#8217;s development team split up into sections &#8211; Village, Island, and Castle &#8211; before coming together to create the final game that players will get to enjoy when it hits shelves later this year.<\/p>\n<div class=\"rsp-embed-container\" contenteditable=\"false\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en_US\" data-twitter-extracted-i1673332269478587016=\"true\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">(2\/2) finished their section of the game, they came back together and went over each team&#8217;s work for revisions &amp; to focus on alterations for pacing.<\/p>\n<p>But the devs mention the Island by name &amp; say there&#8217;s &#8220;A lot more to it&#8221; than the original game, but don&#8217;t clarify any further.<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; AestheticGamer aka Dusk Golem (@AestheticGamer1) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AestheticGamer1\/status\/1609629761898434560?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 1, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" async><\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>The Island is so infamous among Resident Evil fans, as many believe that it brought a sudden shift in tone that did not fit the franchise and focused too much on filler interactions and boring shooter gameplay. We won&#8217;t know until the Resident Evil 4 Remake releases whether the remake version will suffer from the same criticism, but we can only hope that Capcom has learned from its past mistakes and that this area of the remake will be better received than the original.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Resident Evil 4 Remake&#8217;s developers announced in a recent interview published in EDGE Magazine that one of the franchise&#8217;s most infamous areas, Resident Evil&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12834,"featured_media":40922,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[],"class_list":["post-40921","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-resident-evil","genre-horror","content_type-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 -
