A remake of the original 1996 Resident Evil was released exclusively for GameCube.
The director, Shinji Mikami, thought the 1996 version didn’t age well, and that the GameCube would better allow his vision for the game to come to life. Not only were the remake’s graphics better, but it also had a new range of features, including better gameplay mechanics, new areas, more advanced puzzles, and an improved script.
