Resident Evil Requiem’s Gameplay is “Almost An Upgrade” Over Resident Evil 2, Says Director

So, I was chatting with director Koshi Nakanishi and producer Masato Kumazama at Tokyo Game Show 2025, and they explained how they balance horror and action in the Resident Evil games. Basically, they see the games falling somewhere on a spectrum between how similar they are to Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 4. Nakanishi said Resident Evil 7 really leaned into the 2 side of things – going back to those survival horror roots, which everyone loved. Then, Resident Evil Village took that foundation and added a lot more action and shooting, pushing it closer to the Resident Evil 4 end of the scale. They called it an “inflation effect” – the more action you add, the more it shifts that balance.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake Trilogy Team Takes Fan Feedback Seriously, Doesn’t Let it Affect Core Vision

“Yes, I believe that’s a key point,” Hamaguchi responded when asked about the role of fan feedback during development. “We definitely pay attention to a lot of what players tell us, as it’s very important to us.

Because it’s a trilogy of three games, we can release one, gather responses, and then use that information to improve the subsequent games. That’s absolutely a part of our process and is very valuable. It’s a fantastic opportunity to be able to do that.”

James Gunn Ordered a Major Change in Clayface (Which Probably Saved the Movie)

During a conversation with Brandon Davis about the leaked images from the Clayface set, Gunn explained, “We were aware we were filming outdoors, anticipated some photos would surface, and knew makeup would be used.” He continued, “The question came up: ‘Should we avoid using makeup and rely on visual effects in post-production?’ I was surprised. Would a few leaked photos actually impact box office revenue by even a dollar? And why spend hundreds of thousands on VFX when practical effects would look better? Clayface features a lot of really impressive practical effects.”
