Finally revealed at the tail-end of 2019 to rapturous applause, Resident Evil 3‘s long-awaited remake is due to arrive in a matter of weeks.
Similarly to last year’s acclaimed reimagining of Resident Evil 2, Capcom is rebuilding the survival horror from scratch for modern audiences and that includes total redesigns of its central stars. Like Leon and Claire before her, Jill has received a new look for her own nightmarish tale of escape from Raccoon City and for good reason. While various elements of the character remain intact from her original appearance, Jill’s transformation is drastic, to say the least, and, according to the developer, one that was necessary to make the game more believable.
Speaking in the latest monthly issue of Game Informer, art director for Resident Evil 3 remake, Yonghee Cho, reveals that Jill’s over-sexualized design in the original game spurred a lot of internal discussions.
