As Resident Evil celebrates 30 years, fans are digging up some wild ideas that never made it into the final game. Originally, director Hideki Kamiya had a vision for a 'Stylish' version featuring the mysterious HUNK on a cruise ship filled with creepy hybrids. But as Capcom shifted gears for the PlayStation 2, those plans were put on ice, leading to changes that birthed Resident Evil 3: Nemesis.
Later versions like 'Castle' and 'Hallucination' took some daring risks, delving into psychological horror and fresh gameplay. While 'Castle' faced hardware challenges, 'Hallucination' created a chilling atmosphere that hinted at a new direction for survival horror. Some of these lost ideas eventually found their way into the Devil May Cry series, showing how creative gambles can shift the gaming scene. What do you think of these abandoned concepts? Would they have made the game even better?
