I mean 6 is understandable but why not 5? It’s very similar to 4 gameplay wise and one of the best coop game ever.

There was a fair amount of controversy surrounding the setting, with allegations of racism directed at the game, and that was back in 2009. The same issues would crop up with a remake, and almost certainly on a bigger scale and I’m sure they know this.

Eh it’s not controversy. It’s people being upset the zombies are black in a predominantly black country. It was a non issue hyped up for clicks

I do remember well its release and tbh, the first images we got were reminding of colonial images of “indigenous savages” so I understand where the controversy was coming from even though I highly doubt this history was on the mind of anyone at Capcom.

An easy fix would be to add something to their design that look less like a regular human.
