Aren’t tired of zombies yet? Good, because Capcom announced that a new visually remastered Resident Evil 4 will be coming to PC’s sometime in February. Resident Evil 4 was first released on the Playstation 2 back in 2005, and a PC version was released in 2007. According to Capcom, this will be an updating of the classic game for more modern gaming capabilities. Capcom promises a stable 60 fps count (assuming you meet the hardware requirements) as well as sharper textures and crisper text.
Here are the requirements for Resident Evil 4 Ultimate HD:
Minimum System Requirements:
- OS: Windows XP/ Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8
- Processor: Intel CoreTM2 Duo 2.4 Ghz or better, AMD AthlonTM X2 2.8 Ghz or better
- Memory: 2 GB RAM / Hard Disk Space: 15GB free hard drive space

Resident Evil 4 Ultimate HD can be pre-ordered on Steam starting today. Fans of Resident Evil 4 that pre-order will be getting the full official soundtrack and an impressive 80-page long collection of artwork. The listing price is $20. The core features of the game will not be altered, the new version only focusing on improving visuals. And that’s not necessarily a bad thing, since Resident Evil 4 was a great game and it would be a shame to ruin a classic. The game will feature keyboard and mouse support, as well as controller support, and will have localized subtitles in French, Italian and Japanese.
