The remake of Resident Evil 2 is probably one of the best examples of a series revival in recent years. Capcom really made sure to bring back all of the survival horror elements that characterised the first entries in the long-running series; a much-needed comeback, as many long-time fans seem agree.
Once fans saw what Capcom was capable of delivering, fans of the series were quick to wonder whether the developer would also be considering giving other titles in the series a makeover; particularly hoping that said game would be Resident Evil 3: Nemesis, which is a fan-favourite game that hasn't been re-released in quite a long time.
A few months after Resident Evil 2 released, Capcom did tease that they could remake Resident Evil 3: Nemesis; revealing that it was up to the fans to support Resident Evil 2 and ask nicely for a Resident Evil 3: Nemesis remake.
As we all know, Capcom did announce Resident Evil 3, and today the game has finally become available — giving players a chance to revisit Raccoon City; this time as former S.T.A.R.S. member Jill Valentine.
Resident Evil 3 is also including a brand-new multiplayer game called Resident Evil Resistance, so there is actually a lot of content in this game for both newcomers to the series and long-time fans to sink their teeth into this weekend.
In order to celebrate the occasion, Capcom has released a short but sweet trailer for Resident Evil 3 — so be sure check it out down below, and let us know what you thought about it in the comments section!

Jill Valentine is one of the last remaining people in Raccoon City to witness the atrocities Umbrella performed. To stop her, Umbrella unleashes their ultimate secret weapon; Nemesis! Also includes Resident Evil Resistance, a new 1 vs 4 online multiplayer game set in the Resident Evil universe where four survivors face-off against a sinister Mastermind.
Resident Evil 3 is available for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC today.
