Resident Evil 4 Gold Edition is the gold standard for modern remakes. It updates the original beautifully, remaining faithful yet improving upon almost every element. The combat feels weighty and satisfying, the locations have all been expanded upon without feeling bloated, and there's enough content here to keep you coming back for years.

It's easily the prettiest of the RE Engine remakes, but this does unfortunately result in more noticeable visual blemishes on Switch 2. This, however, is a minor issue in light of its accomplishments. I had my doubts that Capcom could pull off remaking one of the greatest games of all time, but man, the team did a stellar job.
