Capcom announced that it's reviving the original Resident Evil on a new generation of consoles, but don't look for it to be a far cry from the game's last revamp in 2002.
Speaking in a video recently released the publisher, producers Tatsuya Kitabayashi and Yoshiaki Hirabyashi said that they were trying to avoid messing up a good thing as they rebuilt Resident Evil.
"We have been very careful to preserve the original atmosphere of the game," Hirabyashi said, "and are ensuring that no unnecessary changes will be made. The tempo and flow of the original game are an inherent part of its scary atmosphere so we have made the decision not to disrupt this tempo."
The bulk of the changes will, of course, be graphical.
"When it comes to graphics, we didn't just want them to look better," Kitabayashi said. "We have taken the game apart, polished up all the different elements and carefully reassembled them in such a way that its original atmosphere shines through."
Resident Evil will launch (again) in 2015 on Windows PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One.
