Making remakes of old games is not a new trend in the gaming industry, but it has definitely blown up in recent times. We have already received multiple remakes in 2026 itself, with the likes of Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced and Halo Campaign Evolved releasing recently. However, one remake stands on top of all others, and that’s Resident Evil 4.
