Unlike the remake of Resident Evil 2, Capcom is making a notable amount of changes to the remake of Resident Evil 3 on PS4, Xbox One, and PC. We already know there will be a new camera, plus expanded roles for secondary characters, but there's more changes being made to the classic PS1 game in order to bring it to modernity. More specifically, producer on the game, Peter Fabiano, revealed that the remake hitting later this year will not have the alternate endings the original game did. Rather, Capcom has decided to focus on one single story.

Unfortunately, further details on why Capcom is doing this are not divulged, but presumably Capcom thinks dropping the alternate endings is what's best for the game and best for modern audiences. For those that don't know: the original game allowed players to choose between two choices at certain points in the game. These decisions would impact the ending. That said, if alternate endings aren't returning, then presumably making choices will not either.

Of course, the choices and alternate endings are not what define Resident Evil 3, so it's not a huge deal that they are being scrapped. However, this will certainly bother some fans, especially those who want to relive the original in its truest form.

Resident Evil 3 is set to release on April 3 via PS4, Xbox One, and PC. It will cost $60 upon release.
