How Hellraiser made it through the ratings boards is beyond me. But I give the devs 10/10 with authenticity and sticking to what Hellraiser is.

Hellraiser franchise has had it's fair share of ups, downs, more downs and even more downs. But luckily Dimension doesn't have the movie rights anymore. And there is a rumour that Clive Barker is in fact writing and directing a new Hellraiser movie. So that would be amazing.

@Tea: I think Kena 2 was unfortunatly delayed. But its a small team. So its good they get more time.

@phreak - you what im waiting for ... the release date on Kena 2. The first game was a complete gem and likely my game of the year when it was released.

@VectorTwoSix

For now I would not be hopeful, this article was released https://wccftech.com/phantom-blade-zero-playstation-5-pulled-listings-no-physical-edition/ that shows for now, there is no intention for a physical release, maybe it will be like Black Myth Wukong where they will release physical later

Possibly after the timed exclusivity ends

Look I'm really excited for Phantom Blade Zero, but I refuse to buy it digitally. Much like Black Myth Wukong, I will wait if I have to, but if you're getting a physical, please sign me up (I heard rumours there would be some physicals released).

I'm very excited for FF Resonance.

I'm going to binge play Hellraiser the whole weekend. It's so freaking good. Hellraiser: Revival has such sights to show you.

Capcom Overhauls Resident Evil 4 Remake Plans, Possibly Releases in 2023

by Sam Aberdeen on 25 January, 2021

Capcom currently has their hands full with a list of new projects including the likes of Resident Evil Village and the leaked sequel to Dragon's Dogma. However, it was also previously leaked that they were planning a remake of Resident Evil 4 next, with the studio behind the Resident Evil 3 remake, M-Two, handling duties. It looks like plans may have significantly changed at Capcom as a new report states that some creative differences internally led to M-Two getting their role in development reduced while Capcom' Division 1 swooped in to take over.

As reported by Video Games Chronicle, Capcom has overhauled their plans for the Resident Evil 4 remake. Developer M-Two's role has been reduced, as Capcom's Division 1 - who are the leading team responsible for the Resident Evil and Devil May Cry series - have taken over. According to VGC, M-Two's backlash surrounding Resident Evil 3 remake's missing content and unwillingness to stick faithfully to the original blueprint of Resident Evil 4 has now brought Division 1 into the fold. Division 1 aims to be directly inspired by the original albeit with their own unique takes on features and elements, much like the liberties taken with Mr. X in the Resident Evil 2 remake. If this means that the big cheese will be pursuing Leon around the island, so be it.

With the project being rebooted internally, it will seemingly miss its originally planned 2022 release, from our understanding, and will now target a release in 2023 instead. Capcom refused to comment on the article when asked about its truths, perhaps to retain the secrecy of the remake.

Resident Evil 4 launched in 2005, being widely regarded as the best in the series, and one of the best horror video games of all time. It's change from fixed camera angles to an over-the-shoulder viewpoint carried on throughout the series until even the remakes today, while influencing numerous titles like Dead Space. Capcom's recent remakes include Resident Evil 2 and 3, though we expect them to eventually stop with Resident Evil 4.

Resident Evil Village launches on May 7th, 2021 for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and PC.

@Lurch My one fear is that they change Leon's personality to be more "serious" and take away his quips and charm. They already did that in RE6 and the animated movies, and I don't want that Leon.

Having recently played through the village section, I can finally agree that a remake is in order. Mechanically and visually, at any rate,

I was surprised at how dated it looked and felt, and the up-rezzed rereleases only seemed to highlight how flat and low-detail many scenes are despite the impressive atmosphere. They should, I'd imagine, have a ton of assets from RE: Village that they can use to speed up the process. I just hope they don't change the tone too much like in the RE2 remake. The contrast between the horror elements and campy characters is still the highlight.
