The state of play began with great fanfare: Capcom used a Sony event to present the long-awaited remake of “Resident Evil 4”.
There has been speculation for a long time, and now the much-anticipated new release is official: the first game in today’s State of Play release was a remake of “Resident Evil 4” by Capcom. After the second and third part, the fourth branch will also be re-released.
