Capcom has experienced significant success with its recent remakes, particularly with the critically acclaimed Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 remakes. Adding to this success is the positive reception of the recent Resident Evil 4 remake. While all three remakes were warmly received, it is important to choose the next title carefully to ensure it resonates with fans.
One Resident Evil game that may not be a strong candidate for a remake is Resident Evil 5. Despite its initial positive reception, the game faced criticism for alleged racism due to its portrayal of Africa. The game depicted a problematic and stereotypical representation of the continent, perpetuating Westernized notions and reinforcing harmful stereotypes. Given these concerns, revisiting Resident Evil 5 may not be a favorable choice for a remake.
