Resident Evil 3’s reveal trailer opened with protagonist Jill Valentine running for her life as she is pursued by Nemesis. The first few scenes of the preview were shown in first-person, which begs the question of whether the game will actually be played from this perspective similar to Resident Evil 7. However, this may be unlikely given that Resident Evil 2 Remake is played via the over-the-shoulder perspective, which is most likely going to be carried over to Resident Evil 3.

The preview also showed several of the game’s supporting characters such as Carlos Oliveira, Nikolai Zinoviev, Mikhail Viktor, and Brad Vickers. One notable difference between the remake and the original is the outfit that Jill sports in the game. The trailer revealed that just like in Resident Evil 2 Remake, Capcom is designing the outfits of the characters to be more realistic. In the trailer, Jill sports a more combat-friendly outfit, which is somewhat similar to what Lara Croft wore in recent Tomb Raider games.

Although the trailer showed Nemesis chasing down Jill, the preview did not really show what the monster would look like in the game. In the photos that leaked last week, many players weren’t really happy about how Nemesis turned out, so it is currently a mystery what his appearance in the game would be like. Is Capcom backpedaling and was forced to hide Nemesis in the trailer to redesign the monster? Or was the leaked image Capcom’s way of trolling fans?

Players who can’t wait for Resident Evil 3 Remake would be happy to know that pre-orders for the game are going live today. The live stream confirmed that the game will be released on April 3, 2020, for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.

Moreover, Sony’s State of Play live stream revealed that the previously announced Resident Evil multiplayer game, Project Resistance, will be included in Resident Evil 3. As of the moment, it was not made clear whether Project Resistance will be the only other game mode included in the Resident Evil 3 remake. Fans of the original game would remember that Resident Evil 3 included The Mercenaries: Operation Jackal, which is an unlockable mini-game.

Resident Evil 3 Remake is set to release on PC, PS4, and Xbox One on April 3, 2020.
