Resident Evil 4 Remake is not an easy game, but for long-time fans of the horror franchise, there’s one setting that can make things harder.
The Resident Evil franchise has always put challenge at its forefront. In a horror game, it’s often tempting for the developer to give the player very few resources to defend themselves, but in an action game players are usually given an abundance of ways to avoid death. As an action-horror game, Resident Evil 4 Remake strikes the perfect balance of both, giving players just enough ammo to get through an encounter by the skin of their teeth. It doesn’t always work out perfectly, but for the most part, Resident Evil 4 is a fair and balanced experience.
However, fans might not want an entirely fair or balanced experience. Sometimes fans want to be challenged, and the Resident Evil 4 remake has a few dedicated difficulty modes that can give fans exactly the type of challenge they’re looking for. But new players should be warned, Resident Evil 4’s higher difficulties are not for the faint of heart.
