Players can still enjoy Resident Evil 4 today because it doesn't feel all that different from some of the biggest games you'll find in 2020. Its camera movement, button prompts, and challenging enemies set the stage for later third person shooter titles such as Unchartedand The Last of Us. Through this change, Resident Evil 4 was able to bring the survival horror genre - as well as video games in general - to the next generation. Positioning, aiming, and planning all factor into whether or not you can survive to see the next area, and escaping each group of enemies feels like an accomplishment in its own right.
Ammo and resources need to be used thoughtfully, and players are forced to think through their actions or otherwise find themselves facing a lethal horde of Las Plagas. You still find yourself in plenty of the same intense, nerve racking moments that the earlier games had become known for. To say Resident Evil 4 abandons the horror trope all together, though, would be wildly incorrect. You're still confronting terrifying enemies that look like they're straight out of a nightmare, but this time the confrontation feels a bit more like a Hollywood blockbuster and a bit less like an independent horror flick.
Instead of wandering around dark and narrow hallways, you find yourself trudging through swamps and exploring castle courtyards. Resident Evil 4, however, opted to abandon that claustrophobia in exchange for bigger set pieces, more action, and larger than life enemies. The Resident Evilfranchise found its claim to fame through intense, claustrophobic survival horror gameplay, a formula that the Resident Evil 2 remake was able to execute flawlessly when it released last year. Since its initial 2005 release date, Resident Evil 4 is still being played on all twelve of the platforms that it has been ported to, and it's all thanks to the fact that the game's excellent story and gameplay still hold up today. Although the game had abandoned some of the survival horror tropes that its predecessors had popularized, it still managed to give players an immersive, well-paced action adventure game that revolutionized the third person shooter and set the stage for countless other titles in the genre to find success. Back on January 11, 2005, Resident Evil 4was released for the first time on the GameCube.
